@jc He'll look even less comfortable, once Kev hands him the mic.

Does anyone else feel a bit sorry for the Wallabies? They played pretty well tonight, but they were just outclassed by a much better team.

They're just so far off the pace that I am starting to think it is becoming unhealthy.

Nope, it’s up to them to improve.

First, sack the coach. Second, get the team fit enough for Test rugby.

Ideally after the next Rwc

I present to you my psychologist bills from 1998-2002

That win was a part of your continuing therapy

I've never heard Owen speak so many words.

[Virgil]

BB has outscored Oz 43-25 so far this series

[JC]

Jeez is that Owen’s missus? He’s punching well above his weight. And that’s a lot of weight. Well done that man.

The psych said it will take 30 years of retention to get over those 5

[Derm McCrum]

Great match to watch - New Zealand are on another level. Superb.

That wraps up the Championship for another year I reckon.

[Virgil]

When this year kicked off do you think Karl T had any thoughts of walking around with the Bledisloe Cup?

The way our backline players back each other is something to behold. The trust that they have and then the skill to offload/step/beat the man.

[taniwharugby]

@act-crusader what years are you talking about? You guys need better psychiatrists!

Great story. That man deserves a meat pie

5 year contract for Hooper :face_with_tears_of_joy:

[chimoaus]

I wonder if Rugby Australia still thinks 6 Million for Hooper is a wise investment.

[Gunner]

Thumping win, but I don’t think the ABs will be thrilled with that performance.
Plenty of dropped balls early on, strange how they all seemed to be dropped bullet passes which bounced away at a million miles an hour.
They also won’t be happy with the soft defence on the 2 Aussie tries.
Harris has to go, our lineout falls apart when he comes on. Time for Coltman to have a go.

That said, I always had the feeling that once we stopped dropping the ball we’d put plenty of points on the board, and we did score some great tries.
Any time the ABs thump Aussie it’s a great day.

BB and BBBR again both outstanding.

Well done Owen Franks on the 100 games.

@chimoaus Was he on the field? I didn't notice

Anybody have the online location for the press conferences?
