Wallabies v Lions - 3rd Test, Accor Stadium, Saturday 2 August

[Major Tom]

Our bench was pretty good hey.
Nonngoor was solid for his 20mins.
Williams was huge I thought.
Probably due to the weather but our defence was probably the best it’s been in a long while.

Thank god Itoje didn’t get a go on the mic this week

Yeah they all played immense, and Tate coming on also.

 

[Marbig]

Wow, a Lions captain is capable of recognising his opposition. Guess Maro was wrong when he said last week they had more to come.

 

[Major Tom]

Much prefer listening to Sheehan after the games

 

[Shiggins]

Lenny had a blinder. I thought his second half probably deserved MoM. We deserved to win this series but the lions didn't deserve to lose it. The refereeing was shocking at times. The knock on debacle shows that.

 

[Marbig]

nice change

whooa, let's just congratulate those 23 for tonight
different ball game against sa and nz who have been playing as a team together for yonks

Sorry I was referring to the Spring tour, I respect our SH friends

 

[twister29]

Skeltons a big boy isnt he

 

[Brumby Runner]

What shit communication, White and Wilson both balked at that kick FFS

Yeah, but it was White's catch every day.

 

[The Red Baron]

Proud to see the team get up like that tonight, where previous Wallabies sides would likely have folded.

How good is it to see a Wallabies side physically dominate a team like that? Hooper, Skelton and Tupou put in massive shifts, and Williams really helped seal the game towards the end with some class plays. The whole team stood up in some atrocious conditions and absolutely battered those pasty northern gits.

He recognised Tom Lynaghs head when he crashed into it

 

[twister29]

i love nick white

little half but with a big heart. Also such a cheeky bugger he is in every scrap and not afraid to get in the refs head space

 

[Shiggins]

Wasn't white solid as well. One of his best.

 

[Filipo Daugunu]

The veteran Slipper still has it, what a player he is. Despite the criticism it was a great performance by him. His scrummaging ability has always been so underrated. Always fronts up for the team and delivers big shifts every time.

 

[molman]

Lots of players stood up, but Hooper and Wright really impressed me tonight. Hooper one penalty aside had a fantastic game. Wright is just making the right choices. Is looking so solid out back.

Ikitau was just in the midst of it tonight. He really threw him self into some pretty heavy collisions. Tupou also one of his better games this year.

Anyway, so happy for the boys. So much passion and heart on display tonight, but also backed up with some great rugby and a much needed result.

 

[twister29]

i love nick white and harry wilson

 

[twister29]

and slipper also

 

[twister29]

i don’t like suali’i he needs to go back to TKS tackling school

 

[Tomthumb]

Hooper and Pietch showed why they should have been picked for game 1

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Twister spent the lightning break topping up the tank.
