I'm finding it increasingly hard to see the Wallabies in a glass half full light. The game today, though close, still reflects poorly on the team for making a lot of basic mistakes. I see some positive moments and improvement from individuals, but as a collection of players they looked like it...

My favourite media quote - "if it bleeds, it leads " :cool: Yes, I understand how the media works (or doesn't ) as well as anyone, and don't think the team should function based on media speculation. But - These problems have been around for a while now and no matter how the media beats it up...

Bench him - get in first. To be honest, this Wallabies star mentality is all wrong and needs a serious correction. No one player on a Union team is really the star are they ? The other 22 must be doing their bit for Folau to look good in his role, no matter how talented he his. I wonder how...

I'm excited JOCs with the Reds. I think he'll go hard this time around and without all the horseshit off field.

I don't think 'cattle' is the real problem though it's always an entertaining discussion from the couch. The same 'cattle' have had a great Super season against kiwi teams and not for the first time. IMHO, it's team mentality when compared to the AB's. Their individuals just flat out seem to...

Maybe the man makeup thing is to blame ?

KB (Kurtley Beale) is still trying to girly slap some opposition players in the tackle while To'omua was making hits. Our defence tonight was shocking.

1. Hooper 2. Slipper 3. Higgers.

James H was at the Bathurst training day and I didn't recognise him at first. He looks much leaner than of late and very fit. I'm not sure how he fits into the current Wallabies, but you have to admire his team spirit and passion.

I haven't seen the game again in the clear light of day, but in hindsight - The opening game was much to important for experiments. KB (Kurtley Beale) was an experiment that had no place except perhaps if Foley was injured. I think it's safe to say that Foley would have at least been more settled in the role...

Best tackle of the game was on him - by Izzy ! :D

Being swatted off that tackle at the end of his awesome kick chase would have been frustrating. IMHO, his tackling is still soft.

Yes, will someone please explain what is ever gained from a box kick. To me it's like backing the AB's up about 10 meters and nothing more.

Yeah, glass half full ! Our forwards were very good and Hooper was indeed epic. Slipper was also on his game.

I don't get it. Wouldn't you play a side heavily weighed towards the Waratahs so soon after their victory over NZ? White was poor. Beale was out of place. The bench came on too late. sigh.

Clearly the AB's are playing dirty rugby when the Wallabies get some pace up inside the 22 and clearly the ref doesn't care or notice. Knowing that, is there anything they can do ? What about a line-out and another shot at the line ?

I agree. IMHO, Change the starting line-up to reflect recent form and if you must have them, put the 'superstars' on the bench.

Agree 100%. What a great bunch of fans and so many of them !

I don't know what's worse, the channel 10 coverage including thousands of shitty ads or the team itself..
