RWC 2015 Semi Final 2 - Australia v Argentina Twickenham, Monday 19 October, 2:45 AEDT

What an outstanding effort. How do you pick MOM out of that. Moore, Fardy, Douglas, Pocock, Genia, Foley, Mitchell & AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) all outstanding. Bench impact very strong.

Poey Fardy Mitchell.... HM Foley, AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)

Genia was good but kicking was poor. I didn't notice Douglas and Moore anywhere nearly as much as Fardy or Poey.

Pocock makes the world of difference. I wonder what is going on with Hooepr and his running, doesn't seem anywhere near the same threat he once was. Still a great player though.

Thought he ran well in this game.

Makes all the difference, him and Frady rushing out to make tackles haha.

Fantastic game. Compare this game to the absolute shit that the two Manchester clubs put on in their derby two hours prior. Pathetic, hehe.

Bed time, woo!

We were going nowhere after lots of phases and then got a lineout throw at the same spot.

not a bad choice, but very poor execution. i don't think he should try one of those again.

And on that note, the MOM thread is up.

Solid but doesn't break the line like he use too.

Douglas lead the line speed on defence all game.

It's all about the Focock now..........

 

[Ruggernut]

Who's gonna be the ref next week?

 

[Groucho]

Douglas and Fardy close to Pocock for mine. Great forwards performance.

 

[Slim 293]

Who's gonna be the ref next week?

Surely Owens.

We'd made 30 metres in 3 phases from TPN runs up the middle and had only stalled a little. Sure, we got the ball back more or less the same sport, but we had secure ball for the most part. Why not build a little more?

Trying to go to bed at 5am after 6 coffees just isn't going to happen. I notice there is a post match the Cup Runneth Over featuring sumo Stevenson so I'll settle in to that.

One of those valuable skills that often goes unnoticed. Glad some-one picked it up, I sure didnt

 

[FilthRugby]

Pocock and Fardy were immense!

... and he was trying to put us beyond the 7 points...

Fuck me - just because you score 3 tries doesn't make you MoM. He didn't really do anything special to score them except do what a winger is supposed to do and catch the ball, run to the line and fall over it. (yes - harsh I know but it pisses me off that people get distracted by the number of tries a back scores)

Pocock or Fardy by a country mile.

What on earth was with Folau and the chip kicks... must have been watching replays of the All Blacks V Boks.

Wouldn't even rank AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) top 10. He scored, did his job nothing special.

Shit and negative sport where a nil all draw is considered a result. What did you expect?
