<p>Agreed. Its also dirty play to hold someone at a ruck. Accidental contact is another matter, and knowing how many cameras are around the ground, do you think Pocock would deliberately stomp someone on the head? Ludicrous.</p>

<p>I'm not surprised - the amount of work he got through just in that second half was immense. Doing the business.</p> -

Go get some fresh air Nick

<p>Well done ABs, worthy champions. Enjoy the spoils, guys. Was great to see Richie and Dan at full flight one last time.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Really proud of the Wallabies, so gutsy to get back in the contest in the second half. No disgrace in losing to that team at all. Played our hearts out.</p> -

Man that was risky to leave him on but he lifted. Put in some big hits. He didn't play wide and kept him in the middle of the park where we were getting over the gain line. -

<p>How many caps would that be? Like another 50 or so?</p> -
Yeah baby! So fuckin happy. What a way for some true legends of the game to go out. DC sublime tonight. Richie also. Conrad setup the crucial try just before halftime. Woohoo !!!! 3 times world champs, black to black winners. Just doesn't get any better than this

Well that had everything. <br><br>
Congrats to the aussies for mounting that comeback - i don't think any other team could have managed that. Almost necessitated a change in undies for me.<br><br>
What a night for this AB team, the old firm in particular. Nonu, DC, Richie, Kaino, all Fcking immense. Thought retallick was a beast too.<br><br>
Stoked for DC to go out like this.<br><br>
What the fck am I supposed to do now? Thanks God the nba has started. -
