RWC - Wallabies v Italy - 11th September 2011

[naza]

Much better interchanges between backs and forwards. Intensity has definitely lifted. Looks more promising. Goal kicking and lateral running by the backs still a thorn in our side.

O'Connor over! Yes, more of this stuff boys!

 

[maxdacat]

Lovely stuff from JOC (James O'Connor)

23-6 shot coming up.

 

[Doogs]

Yes! But don't lose all structure - this stuff won't beat the big boys...

 

[Slim 293]

Fair to say that Fainga'a has lost his spot...

 

[AngrySeahorse]

I think I heard that TPN is coming on soon, I cant wait to see him have a run!

EDIT: He's out there now!

 

[maxdacat]

TPN coming on.

[AngrySeahorse]

Magic from Diggers! Get pass back to Burgo from Samo at the scrum!

O'Connor converts score 32-6 Aus

 

[Swarley]

Brilliant from Quade, Burgess and Digby there!
GO WALLABIES

Aah!! How I enjoy a good counter-ruck with my early morning cuppa!! Mongrel .....I tell ya!!

 

[maxdacat]

lovely work from diggers!!!

makes it 32-6

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Not so good from Cooper there, still pretty happy with this 2nd half though.

Going for touch instead of goal, like it given the score line.

 

[Swarley]

It's pretty clear the Wallabies game-plan relies heavily on inside balls to the outside backs. O'Connor, Ioane and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) all scored off them.

 

[maxdacat]

worrying intercept there from italy...shame it ended in a penalty against them.

i think it started from an inside pass from Cooper that might have been a touch forward.

 

[maxdacat]

not a good throw there from TPN

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Great work there from Slipper.

 

[maxdacat]

scrappy again....wobs need to control the ball better
