Wallabies v Japan 25 Oct

[dru]

CDC i would say

I'd leave him in place. and put Wilson at lock.

 

[Wilson]

Nothing to be done there, but an example of where the law needs to evolve around ball carriers getting their heads too low and increasing the risk to the tackler trying to stay legal.

 

[rugbyAU]

Does Swain come in to the squad

 

[Spamnoodle]

I wish they'd stop showing the Japanese coaching box.
Eddie looking a lot like Gollum these days.

 

[Strewthcobber]

Absolutely moronic play there. 3 advantages with quick ball and they refuse to spin it, then wait until they have the slowest ball and try and spin it. All on Gordon and Edmed

There was one Japanese defender between the posts and the sideline on the right. We go left

 

[rugbyAU]

and make Wilson captain now too

Yeah, sure. Look, it's a contact sport. I'd leave the rules alone and run with the risks.

I was wrong about Wilson though.

 

[Heavyd]

This is an injury train wreck

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Against lesser teams we always seek to think we can just out gun them with unimaginative attack.

On their line it’s pick and drives, on halfway it’s just pinging it wide before we even think about getting over the gain line.

Wallabies are exceptional at playing down or up to their opposition.

It screams fuck all leadership and smarts.

 

[Heavyd]

Let the backs have the fixking ball!!

I like to think we are better than that these days.

Let's see.

 

[rugbyAU]

Why they make CDC captain is bizzare, cheapening the Wallaby captaincy

 

[Dctarget]

Let the backs have the fixking ball!!

Have you seen what the backs do when they get the ball?

 

[Major Tom]

Get Carter in. Edmed is terrible

 

[Tomthumb]

Someone needs to remind the wallabies this is a test match. Edmed with an aimless kick like it’s a training run

What twice they had a shot?

 

[Tomthumb]

Get Carter in. Edmed is terrible

Always has been

 

[rugbyAU]

What did Edmed even do to deserve being the starting ten

 

[Upthemaroon!]

Pretty crazy to see the size difference in the frames of the forwards between the Brave Blossoms and the Wallabies

Not JUST a test, also a grudge match. It's f'n EJ (Eddie Jones).
