Australia A - Back on the Cards

[Derpus]

What is the score?

19-7 to Samoa. But Samoa very comfortable

 

[hifflepiff]

Jock looks waaaay too small for this level. Getting absolutely manhandled.

 

[qwerty51]

Playing like the Waratahs of last year.

Same coach..

 

[Derpus]

Yes that's more like it!

 

[hifflepiff]

Same coach..

Both Aus A and U20s are led by crap former Tah coaches, with predictable results.

 

[Shiggins]

What retard at world rugby has told.refs to scrutinise line out throwing ? Let's have more scrums. Good idea. What absolute idiots. The game needs to speed up not slow down

 

[Derpus]

What a steal Edmed!

 

[Wilson]

Jeez, pretty poor game from McReight, 55 minutes in and only 2 tries scored

 

[Derpus]

Great turn around.

 

[drewprint]

McCrate. McCrate. McCrate

Coming thick and fast now aren’t they. When you focus your entire pre-commentary prep on the different angles and speeds you can touch yourself when Australia make an error, these fundamental pronunciation skills tend to drop off.

 

[Derpus]

McReight really stepping up.

 

[Thalium]

Jeez, pretty poor game from McReight, 55 minutes in and only 2 tries scored

Look I’m happy to eat my words. Hopefully he can start getting some turn overs and avoid the eyes of the ref

 

[Shiggins]

Aussie lineout not straight at their end. Samoa exact same line out and score a try 4 min later. That's another issue with this. The refs will pick and choose the lineouts are not straight and it won't be consistent.

 

[Derpus]

Hodge is really shit man.

 

[Up the Guts]

This is more like the C team

 

[Derpus]

Really really shit

 

[qwerty51]

Willie Lose first time seen Hodge kicking?

 

[Up the Guts]

Hodge booting it into stratosphere

 

[qwerty51]

It's not really an "Aus A" side yeah.

It's the 35 to 58th best players in Aus.

People disrespected the France team that got sent here last year as a C team yet they ended up with something like 10-12 players in their 23 for their most recent test.

This is a geniune C/D team.

They're really no better than the Waratahs if you factor the replacements for the Waratahs missing didn't make the Wallabies squad and the Tahs players did).

 

[Froggy]

McReight starting to make up for his earlier penalties, big change in the lineout with Kaitu'u on, Foketi very strong.
