Good defensive structure the bedrock upon which Australia run out winners against Scotland 26-7. Clark showed good toe, straightening & scoring a double.
Interesting stat displayed during the telecast that Aust leads NZ as the team that has thrown the most passes over the 3 plus rounds of the series.
PS. Happy Australia Day!

And NZ beats Fiji in a game worthy of a Cup final. Shame it was in pool play.
Australia sneak out of the pool of death in Second place with a chance of making it into the Cup Final.
Happy Australia Day.

Australia now play Argentina in the Plate Semi Final.
So close, but the reality is that we did not play well enough to warrant a Cup semi final berth.
Go Gold.
Looks like it will be a NZL v SAF cup final.

AUS made too many errors in defence - missed tackles, and not covering the angles. Not enough speed in depth. ENG made it easy for their kicker with most tries under the posts. AUS tries nearly all out wide making difficult kicks for Clark.
AUS unable to retain the ball and build pressure for extended periods. Did not take good advantage of the ENG sin bin. ENG played smarter game and deserved victory.

Boilover in 3rd/4th playoff game with Canada storming home in the second half to reel in then pass Samoa, winning 22 - 19 with a PK on the full time hooter.
Well done Canucks. I had them written off after their first half performance. What was said at oranges?
