Wallabies vs South Africa - Perth, September 6th

[SNOB]

"Subi is a disgrace and WA loses rugby patrons every time a match is played there. It is possibly the worst ground in the world to watch rugby. If the boffins at HQ had half a brain, they would switch the test to NIB and fill it. They can double the price of the tickets and make more money and provide the rugby public with a test mach with atmosphere and a decent view. The rugby public would happily pay coin for a decent view and a bit of atmosphere. Subi gets a faecal smear from Rex

The wallaby pack.........our locks are farking soft. The lineout is as bad as I've ever seen an Australian lineout. I have never rated Simmons. He is rarely sited carrying the ball and has no impact on a game. He gives away brainless penalties. His brain fade tonight cost Pek a try and may have cost us the test. Simmons hopefully will be playing left right out forever more. He's a useless shite that boy"


I know you don't like praise Rex so didn't give you a thumb but couldn't agree more.
Only a year ago most of us were blaming Dingo Deans! Well I reckon he's got a bloody great grin on his face in Japan at the moment!
It's about time that the ARU and it's affiliates learnt that "the old boys club" doesn't work at this level!
If you want to be number one " F@cking pick number one!".

I got this photo with my mate Alan's son Joe after the game... He was pretty stoked, just wouldn't look at the camera!
I think it was Hodgo's missus who got them all together, we just photobombed with little Joe jumping in and me standing next to her for the shot!

That's a great photo and how happy do those guys look for matt. Our team is doing ok with the likes of those boys running around.

[Alison]

That's a great photo - think Heath tweeted it last night :-)) Good to Chucky in there too :-))

The ES press are going into overdrive about Beale's contribution when he came on. He did play well and his combination with the other Tahs was slick. But he seems to be getting the credit for the winning try. All he did was run the out-ball-in-ball that has led to many tries for Folau this year. But the Bokke read that one and had Israel covered. The making of that try is down to Foley. He ran around to make the extra man, take the pass from Folau, create the space for Kuridrani to run into and then pass to Horne.

I think they have almost got it right with the backs. Kuridrani was excellent and needs to stay so AAC is better off staying on the wing. Beales best spot is an impact player for the last 20 minutes, I think higgers is best used this way as well but will probably be given a start soon. I wonder if they will change the split of forwards and backs on the bench next test to accommodate speight meaning the extra forward could miss out (hodgo) ?

Hodgo showed his pilfering skill as soon as he walked onto field, I hope they persevere with him; but I can see how he would be the one to go.

[Alison]

Speight is still injured Buddha - he won't be back for next weekend.

Subi sucks baws! Especially during precipitation. What also sucks baws is Phipps passing, we need a 9ft first receiver to get on the front foot.

Get AAC back in to 13 and Speight on to the wing the earliest opportunity McKenzie. You're off my crissy card list after only giving Hodgo 10 mins.

Really? Kudriani was awesome against SA. Far bettetr then AAC has been in the rugby championship so far. IMO AAC has had a poor rugby championship.

[Jeansyjive]

Hodgo showed his pilfering skill as soon as he walked onto field, I hope they persevere with him; but I can see how he would be the one to go.

Hodgo actually does what a 7 is suppose to do. How many turnovers has Hooper got in the last 3 games?

[chibi]

I'd love to see the Wallabies in general try to keep the hands free before they get into contact, I think they can do with keeping the ball alive a bit longer in their running play.
