Well done Aussie. Bonus point win over an unfit and incredibly dull SA.
It’s progress, can’t control the quality of the opposition. And previous Aussie sides could have found a way to lose at least last week.

@kiwiinmelb my tipping was Aus by 8. I think I underestimated how shit the Boks are
-
Messy fun game that highlighted a bit about both sides.
Wallabies are going well, building some nice pieces.
The Boks are pretty average. If you can hold the ball you can score a heap of points

I'll be surprised if this isn't going to be a citing. There's no way there are mitigating factors. First contact was with the head; with force.
Shoulder to the head of a player in a vulnerable position. Should be a long ban.
Mid-range entry point: 6 weeks. If he has a clean record, admits guilt and apologises: 3 weeks. Standard punishment.

Kolisi speaks so well

Congrats Wallabies, not often you beat the world champs twice in a row.
Not often they win two in a row period.
First time for Rennie

Poor Argentina may go 0-6 this year.
They need the Jaguares back. Whatever competition they'd play in, it would be better than now, with most of their players playing in different teams in Europe, a few in Oz and some in the inferior SLAR comp.

They've already lost twice to Wales b, 0-8
Sad to see, much prefer a strong Argie side. I do wonder how the pandemic has impacted many of the players and teams.

Incorrect.
Their first test, this year, against Wales was a 20 - 20 draw.
They beat Wales in their second test: 33 - 11. -

So has Super Rugby Transtasman and 3 games vs us actually helped the Wallabies. Even though they lost they played at a high pace each week.
Does that mean we can claim credit for some of their victory? Ok, good!

Plus a kiwi coach, and to think the brass at Oz Hq say we don't care about them.
-
so do we need to beat the Boks next to gain #1?
That would add a bit of incentive. Or at least, spice.
