How the fuck do you kick the ball out on the full in the 40th minute? It's literally less than a minute to go, just kick it down field and defend for 1 minute. Perfect way to lose cheap points, and the game.
What an amazing effort. Lead right from the front from an all time Sam Cane performance. They all left everything out there. Our loosies were just better tonight, simple as. Matched them up front throughout, insane guts. 4 turnovers from the AB's to Ireland's 11. I've got nothing but plaudits...
It needs to be fixed because it's no different than what Frizzell got penalised for. It's deliberate blocking.
Basically, once the guy behind catches the ball, they should be considered offside instantly if they're blocking someone.
100% on the 7. Talea makes me nervous too, particularly on defense. Seems clueless at times.
Just noticed the penalty count, 12-4. You're probably never going to win with that disparity..
100%. His erratic play doesn't help when the forwards are failing to get any go forward. We've known this for years though. Soon as Carter retired everybody noticed that Beauden doesn't actually have great game management, just oodles of talent/speed.
It's a bit fucking criminal that this team...
The AB's started playing a lot faster and as simple as it sounds, just bloody better. Momentum swings, penalties come and then you're working even harder on defense, fatigue and mistakes just naturally come.
Yeah, and it's rough with the dropout now. Players need to make sure they don't get held up. Could and (and possibly should) have been a Wallabies win, small margins.
