Bledisloe 2
-
Very good effort from the Wallabies, really really stepped it up after they coped heaps of shit this week, well done.
Fuck my heart was going like that last few minutes of that Ireland Test a few years back. If the next few Bledisloes are like that in terms of closeness the fans both sides of the Ta$man should be loving it.
The shit thing is Shag will probably run out a semi-inexperienced side out for the 3rd Test which I have tickets to...

Stupid, stupid play from Hooper. Insane.
What option did he have?
Not charging around and conceding a penalty. Line up the next play and try and tackle someone?

Nah it wasn't too bad. He took a gamble in what was a pretty hopeless situation. ABs under a blanket and time almost up.

Time was up. In that situation you need to concede the penalty and make the referee make a call.

That last try was sublime.
Much better effort from Australia but that first 20 from NZ was appalling.
Fuck Dmac and SBW right off.
I heart Laulala. The scrum was insane. Pity they did almost fark all with it.

@ACT-Crusader was same gamble a FRenchie made in the 2007 RWC final.

It was before the buzzer. It won't get you there...
ABs fell over the line there. Played poorly, Wobs played really well and took their chances. Good game of footy.

Moody was owning Alaalatoa. He's your love interest.

Holy crap Genia ran well tonight. Haven't seen that for years. It was always a massive strength of his (along with those bullet slightly forward passes/line balls)

We looked like last week was our warm up. Genia included. McMahon as well.
Debutant did alright but who the fuck from our side jumped into him at that restart? We HAD that restart
-
I thought we adjusted pretty well in that second half. We played a little deeper and tried a few different things.
Good to get a win against Australia anytime, but feels even better stealing it near the death
-
Awesome, awesome match.
Had it all.
Round of applause to both sides.@MiketheSnow said in Bledisloe 2:

@NTA McMahon far more prominent in defence and around the park. Hooper had the fire in the belly and I can't fault the guys effort tonight he was into everything trying to will his team to victory.

Who lit the fuse under Rieko? Bugger me that boy was on fire! Laulala.....shown previously why in ABs but tonight made his reputation.
Big shout to Wallabies though, no unnecessary niggle, just physical and really sharp on attack and defense. Genia MOM.
