Smith was a lone ranger at the breakdowns. The whole All Black tight 5 piled into ours. Just not good enough. I think Burgess needs to go. Whilst I like his ticker, he kicking or pass is just not up to it.

Braindead performance by the Wallabies.

Yep... There should be a sticky to keep track of nick-names...

ADAM ASHLEY-COOPER, one of the more fun-loving Wallabies, doesn't carry on as if he is rugby royalty. But he has a good excuse if he did wander around with his nose in the air. According to the official Australia-Italy first Test program, the Wallabies utility back is descended from the sixth Earl of Shaftesbury, a peer of the English realm, with links to William the Conqueror. The Test magazine decided to check it out, and discovered that Cropley Ashley-Cooper (1768-1851) was indeed the sixth Earl of Shaftesbury, a descendant of King William I. It doesn't mean you have to bow every time you see Ashley-Cooper walking down the street, but it might mean you pay him a bit more respect.
