Wallabies v Pumas - Saturday 17 September, nib Stadium Perth

[Viking]

Running off Quade is going to help with a shitty offload at Kerevi's ankles in a metre of space while falling over?

Running off Quade is going to help him lose the ball in contact?

Running off Quade is going to fix his confidence in all areas other than running off Quade?

He's trying too hard. Moving to centre isn't going to fix shit hands and shit decision making. He's always been a poor passer and average kicker, but he needs to just have a word to his mate Jesus about relaxing and being Israel Folau.

Moving to Centres? I never once mentioned that. All I said was his game would get better as he learns to run of Quade. Or to build on that, once the backline as a whole builds on its structures and combinations.

If Folau was in DHP's position and scored a try it will do wonders for his confidence - which is obviously down. Probably only take a single try for a player as good as Folau to get his grove back.

I will enjoy the win when it's against the All Blacks

You'll be waiting a while buddy.

Go write a series of really long novels then - you might be waiting some time.

If I was looking ahead to Pretoria, I'd be seriously thinking only of the win, and pick this backline:

9 Genia
10 Cooper
11 Hodge
12 Kerevi
13 TK
14 Mitchell
15 DHP

Simple, bash centres, kicking from the back, and no fucking around. Foley has been copping a physical hammering the games at 12, so he needs a rest. Hodge to kick goals from our 22 at altitude.

You'd seriously drop Folau for one bad game?

Mitchell is past it- he looks like he has swallowed a couple of garbage bins.

Adam Coleman..............

 

[Pfitzy]

Well, he's usually pretty good, so not going to call the Pfitzy-Pfix yet.

They can't afford me.

Oh hello. Have you met galumay?

Boy could we do with Mitchell before his leg break. Remember his speed and step? Was probably the best outside back from broken play in the world for a time.

Brain power is what's required, and experience against the Boks. We don't have speed anywhere else. I just want to play 10-man rugby and fuck them at their own game. Mitchell can run off the blind wing at Jantjies all night.

Fair YC, but geez, Sanchez likes a sook.

To the letter of the law I guess.
But I would have not been the slightest bit perturbed if the argies weren't carded if the shoe was on the other foot.
It was pretty soft.
His left arm actually made contact before his right shoulder and then he turns his body to avoid a head clash. Poor technique but milked in a way we've seen too often from the Argies. Needs to be discouraged.

You don't need the money, you make light and power with a magic wall.

 

[Groucho]

Well done wallabies! A good win against a strong international team. Onwards and upwards.

 

[Twoilms]

Is that Pocock's last game?

 

[Groucho]

Is that Pocock's last game?

Only if he's horribly injured.

Unlikely after a Wallabies win.

 

[Twoilms]

David Pocock was subbed off shortly after in what would be his last game on Australian soil until at least 2018.

 

[Groucho]

Adam Coleman......

Damn right, a big, bloodied, tough lock.

 

[Groucho]

David Pocock was subbed off shortly after in what would be his last game on Australian soil until at least 2018.

"On Autralian soil until at least 2018" is a bit different to "last game". There's a lot of rugby this year, and in 2018 and beyond.

 

[chasmac]

I didn't like the tactic where we kicked possession away so quickly after we won it. But our ball retention in contact was poor. They would be a difficult team to play against.

Can someone tell me if this has a different defensive structure to the previous tests played in TRC.
