Wallabies v Los Pumas I

NTA

@JA be interesting to see if that continues or reverts to the mean.

My sense is that their charmed relationship with whistleblowers this year has been unrelated to their discipline/accuracy.

Interesting take.

You could argue they got a bit of a raw prawn in Lions 2 and Boks 2 for certain decisions. Not sure where the "charmed" bit comes from.

Smuts

@JA agree that the sample size is small.

Also it’s difficult to get beyond vibe when looking at a side’s actual v expected penalty count in a match/area of the field over a season etc.

Who’s everyone picking in this one? Kind of wanting the Aussies to win which is weird.

Massive defence from the Argies to start.

Duluth

Good to see that penalised

Classic, can we go back to the lions test and award it to Australia now?

Duluth

@Bones what?

Sorry referring to the Earl tackle that was way worse than Tupou"s one. That saved the lions.

That penalty against Tupou was ... odd..

Bovidae

Tupou is so dumb.

Bones

That appeared to be pretty blatantly knocked on by an argie playing it on the ground?

Bones

Tupou drops it cold. Who woulda thunk it

Canes4life

Aussies are playing like we did when were younger, everyone crowding around the ball, waiting to carry. I find those tactics a bit strange when spreading the ball wide was where they were most effective against the Boks.

Duluth

Some good work under the high ball by both Aussie wingers

JA

@Bones Yup - 2 penalties, one knock on and one pass to no-one.

Canes4life

Wilson is having a great season.

booboo

Nicely finished by Robotnik

Lovely by the Chocco Bar

Excellent try Argies.

Hit the line at pace off the scrum.
