Haha Channel 10 clock still had 10 seconds left when the siren went off.

Tough game to watch.

Folau far more involved despite the conditions.

White's passing particularly in the 1st half I thought was pretty sharp.

Fardy and Douglas had better games.

Argies looked a bit at sea in attack although they showed they are pretty effective when they actually play down their end but they seem to have real problems putting sustained pressure on their opposition.

Kudos to Los Pumas. They pushed the Wobs hard all night.

It will not be too long before they start winning on a more regular basis.

They will be fancying their chances for the return match at home.

Australian rugby is beige. Bland uninteresting lacking in anything remotely exciting like a Coles commercial.....down down prices are down!

Eh? White's passing has been excellent tonight..

I am happy to have White start again in SA, his kicking is a big plus over Genia. But must admit there were at least two balls in the first half that put Cooper under a lot of pressure, both times the pack was getting smashed and he just moved the pressure on rather than taking the tackle.

This sounds corny but the one thing we should take out of this game is winning. Confidence in winning

Regardless of what the result is, Scott Fardy was excellent tonight. Take a bow son!
I'm surprised it took him so long to make the Wallabies. Looking at the Brumbies stats he managed to top the tackling and workload stats almost every week. He's not a marketing man's player, he's just a down and dirty workhorse which is crucial.

That game summed up rugby in this country.

Shit crowd, no atmosphere. Uninspired performance by a team with 0 ability to execute with any sort of consistency.

We need a new tight 5 before the world cup.

the glaring difference tonight (and this is principally due to White) is that the wallabies played smart rugby by sticking to a position game rather than a possession game. that will go unnoticed by the reds fanbois though, who will all want genia back because he's now hungry and motivated or something

It was raining the entire game. I think that's a bit harsh. There would of been a few
More people with good weather also.

I agree, I thought he did extremely well and really stepped up under the pressure. He got a lot of quick ball out to the backs, and obviously brought his kicking game along too.

Absolute bullshit. White had a good game and I am happy to see him stay on and not have Genia on the field meerkatting and yelling at his own team mates like his own shit doesn't stink.

And I am a red fanboi.

This state rivalry thing has to stop, so why don't you be the adult around here and drop it yourself?
