Bledisloe I

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.

Charlie F...please come back.

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

Derm McCrum

Well that was......

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.

Move along, nothing to see here

Hate is a strong word but not strong enough for Nick Phipps.

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.
