Bledisloe 3

Lack accuracy in handling and kicking. We're going to lose by a lot

Patience, dickheads

Stargazer

HIA for Hames; Crockett on.

Try Folau

No Quarter

Excellent try, game on.

We have been on top and the Wallabies are making heaps of mistakes but we have just put no pressure on them over the last ten minutes.

Tregaskis

Nice try folau. Ran an acute angle and gassed the forwards.

You've got to laugh when Justin Marshall finally says something right - about folau running too lateral - then folau immediately runs laterally and scores.
Sometimes you just can't catch a break.

Agreed, this is a poor looking Wallabies side, and somehow we go into halftime only one point ahead... hmmm.

That was an impressive lead up to that try. Beale took a high ball on their 22 and they phase played it up the field easily.

Tim

Squire's defensive impact is minimal.

Very poor six by AB standards.

NTA

@tim I barely noticed him until I saw him at a lineout.

But the ABs aren't running it much at the moment. Think we'll see that change toward the back end

Nepia

@nta Your pessimism and abuse of your team worked wonders in that last 5 minutes.

Am I allowed to say that Crotty has looked average tonight without getting my head bitten off?

Tim

AB's have kicked quite a bit of ball away. That last bomb from Sopoaga was such a waste.

I think that was a misread by SBW who came in for hooper when he should have stayed out.

Tim

@nepia Crotty has not looked sharp at all tonight.

Billy Tell

Sam Cane is having a monster game. Otherwise really missing retallick and Squire anonymous.

Butter fingers in the backs and McKenzie back to taking wrong options at times.

reprobate

Naholo going well eh. Looks the part tonight.

KiwiMurph

Yeah weird game. Underwhelmed by a few but still a half game to go.

Aussies jersey is nice.

Barnes is still a cock.

NTA

@nepia we have an intercept and one decent build up of phase play. In the meantime we've dropped about 8 good opportunities in possession.

Read hasn't taken a bad option IMHO - the sticks were easy decisions when you're dominating territory.

But I think we will see a bit more intent second half with ball in hand.

ABs missed 14 tackles of 80. Wallabies missed 6 of 42.
