Wallabies v. Springboks, 18th July 2015, Suncorp, Brisbane

[Ash]

That was too easy from the Boks. Mistakes on defence left an overlap, then some poor attempted tackles.

 

[Rugbynutter39]

Like higgers form with rebels this year but not having good game - better bench option

 

[The Red Baron]

This could get ugly if the wallabies don't start competing.

 

[Marcelo]

Poey at 8?????

 

[Ash]

Higgers off for Pocock, was predictable.

Wallabies are putting so little pressure on the Bok ruck, while Bismarck and his loosies destroy ours.

 

[No4918]

Phipps service is well ahead of Genia

 

[Moono75]

Benny will take Higgos spot no worries.

 

[Marcelo]

This is Poey, baby!

 

[Train Without a Station]

Cooper already looking more threatening with the fast service from Phipps and Giteau offering a straight run.

 

[Ruggo]

Pocock on, intensity lifts. Surprise, surprise.

 

[Ash]

So lucky that wasn't a penalty against us at that ruck. Great body position over the ball, the cleanout wasn't bad but he still managed to get it back.

Good work from Pocock though.

Jannie off, huge reprieve for our scrum now.

 

[ACT Crusader]

Another turnover at the ruck. But BdP does something he should never do, do a clearance kick 5m from your line.

Big opportunity her for OZ.

I wouldn't lose hope yet if I were an Aussie fan, only 13 points

 

[Ash]

Yeah, Phipps service is miles ahead of Genia. Lucky change.

Think Pocock on was a good call from the coaches.

Surprised super Pocock didn't prevent it. It's as though a single player doesn't change the performance of a whole team at the breakdown.

 

[Ash]

Er, Kafe, that was perfectly in Kuridrani's breadbasket.

Unfortunate he didn't hold on, that was looking dangerous.

 

[Ash]

Bismarck off, Beast off.

I think our scrum shouldn't be rolling back now. Hopefully.

 

[Marcelo]

The same problem of the last 10 years: The scrum

Thanks NRL!

lol seemingly not

 

[Ash]

That scrum penalty comes from the Bok earlier dominance.

Boks drove in on the replay it looked like, but the dominant scrum will get those calls.

Horwill on, Skelton off.

Loving Phipps' hustle
