    Why do we look so shit all of a sudden. I don't get it.

    Can happen when you're up 50 odd to sweet f.a., the mind subconsciously switches off.

    Yeah but fuck, they switched right off. A lot of work to do to ensure the execution remains when the reserves come on. A big weakness currently.

    Not excusing the last 30 minutes, just saying it can happen.

      Damn, that was frustrating! Worst defensive effort in the 2nd half by an AB team for such a long time. Don't fucken say "glass half full" or "so negative" or any othe BS. It was shit!

        Best forward: Squire
        Best back: Crotty

        Thought Retallick was better than Squire. Cane was also huge making tackles. Rieko was also sensational.

        @KiwiMurph Reiko got stood up by Folau in the first half a couple of times but was much more physical in defence in 2nd half. Great on attack.

          Watching Aussie players celebrating scoring trys while being pumped for a record score really sums up where they are at.

          Yeah moral victories are awesome, when I get home from the pub I'm going to have moral sex.

            From Fox Twitter:

            Total Tries (12) & Points (88) are both #BledisloeCup records.

            Previously 11 tries (1936) & 77 points (2010) #AUSvNZL

                It wasn't the starters easing off. The reserves simply weren't doing the job and as per the Third Test against the Lions, couldn't maintain pressure.

                TJP was poor again - he's like a puppy that pisses itself from excitement. DMac was a nightmare at fullback with his errors and individualism.

                    We lost a heap of backline structure when A Smith and Crotty went off. Didn't help that SBW was seeing tweety birds, either.

                        Strange. I didn't think TJ was that poor. He was one of the few bench players who IMO made a good effort of trying to stop the Wallabies getting back into the game.

                          I like ALB as a player, but we seem to lose our shape when Crotty isn't on the field. He copped a nasty tackle from behind right in the lower back region.

                            His defence was okay, but his attack and game control was worst than normal. It was very poor.

                              @antipodean yes TJ just needs to chill. That pass that DMac gave just after Kieron Reads big talk was symptomatic of 2nd half. Piss poor.

                                    I hope they'll give Havili a run at fullback at some point (when he has been in camp with the ABs longer). I'm keen to find out whether he is a good option in the 15 jersey.
