Bledisloe II
-
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.

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.
I present to you my psychologist bills from 1998-2002
That win was a part of your continuing therapy
The psych said it will take 30 years of retention to get over those 5
@act-crusader what years are you talking about? You guys need better psychiatrists!

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

5 year contract for Hooper :face_with_tears_of_joy:

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.

@anonymous He was chasing butterflies I think.

I wonder if Rugby Australia still thinks 6 Million for Hooper is a wise investment.
What's his role in this team? Is he a forward or a back cos you don't see him doing what you would expect a forward to do. Invisible at the breakdown, no pilfers etc. He does fark all in other words.

Unbelievable display from Beauden. His best ever game surely? Brilliant. Not just the highlights stuff but his kicking in the first half was sensational. What a statement game. I didnt think he had that in him - I apologise. He stays at 10. Sensational game at 10.
Ben from Accounts can still play wing it seems!
Brodie a beast as usual.
Forwards much better second half.
Ardie nice bench impact. DMac much better suited to the bench.
Congrats Franks on 100 tests. What a professional.
Wallabies should really can Cheika. That was worse than last week for them.

Great match to watch - New Zealand are on another level. Superb.
That wraps up the Championship for another year I reckon.

Is that a Kiwi leprechaun?

40-12, plus three disallowed tries. Barnes should have been harsher on the 4th tackle without the ball on TJ. Barrett was class tonight, but also thought BFA had a much better game on the wing. He and Jordie worked well together at the back. Scrum was dodgy as fuck though.
Wallabies need to work on their fitness big time. They looked sharp and hungry in the first half and mostly rubbish in the second, and even players like St. Po were niggly.

I don’t really mind so much. It’s a high risk high reward game plan. You could see what the tactics of the ABs were, play at break neck speed and push the pass to tire the Wallaby defence. And as we saw late in the first half and into the second, the Aussies were cooked and we found gap after gap.

Negatives.
Goodhues pass. Needs more Weetbix.

Oh for sure, they had a definite plan to run them off their feet, just don’t think they’ll be impressed with themselves for the amount of times they dropped it.
