England v Australia - Twickenham, 14 Nov, 4:30am AEDT

A good referee lets the game flow, within reason, at every opportunity. A bad referee is looking at EVERY opportunity to award a penalty for ANY infringement no matter how small.... A question.... Are there any good referees?

Don't let the scoreline fool you here. Worst performance of the year easily.

The attack literally gets a 0/10 rating.

Quade and Kerevi pulled out a month ago. They played as if they pulled out 5 minutes before the game. We barely went over 2 phases. Utterly disgraceful.

What the fuck is the point of 16-23 if we only put them on with 15 to go!?

absolutely disgusting 80min and Rennie and the team deserve to lose to the Welsh

Agree.... Australia were very disappointing... Beale was terrible.... O’Connor is playing too deep ...

Beale is a shit fullback. Perhaps he should be playing 12 if he has to be in the starting team, otherwise he is acceptable as a sub

Also we need to train into the young guys what to do when you make a break. They dont have the patience at the moment and always go for the speculative options when we should just settle the ball and go through the phases

White can fuck off too… but then he’s a brumby and McKellar wouldn’t stand for that

Story of the game - we kicked away any opportunity for the Wallabies to be in the game. Worst game from a No 10 since the days of Foley. JOC (James O'Connor) needs to be left out altogether, along with Beale. Waste of two positions in the team.

Leota and Valetini were outstanding otherwise.
Who is our next 10? ... I don’t think Lolesio is... Cooper at present form is clearly the best.... Super rugby next year may see another candidate emerge to be our next best...as for Beale... for an experienced player he had a shocker... not sure who plays there next Test but it shouldn’t be him...

Just caught the second half but will watch first later on today.
Beale was very poor. Numerous dropped balls, bad passes, a missed grubber (don’t see that in top tier test rugby much)
Thought the backline sparked when Noah came on.
Bad decisions aplenty. Soft soft high tackle call on samu
Centres looked sharp but just made the wrong decision in their breaks. If the off load isn’t on, seek contact near support and be happy to hopefully get quick phase ball off a retreating defense.
Fainga was not good.
I think JOC (James O'Connor) is a 12 if he strtsy

Surely you can’t be serious.. the backline sparked when Lolesio came on? I don’t think so....

Debreszini?
There really isn’t anyone that jumps out.
Hamish? Harrison? Who is over in Perth?
