Australia v England - 1st Test

[MiketheSnow]

Ultimately England lost to a 14 man Australia and made a spirited comeback against 13

But if Eddie parks his ego and picks the best team they could easily stuff Australia next week

On Stan sport you can watch *Wallaby Cam" that just runs a camera on Hooper all game.

Just watched about ten minutes. Fascinating.

How does Eddie Jones have a job? A rabble.

Piggy-backed on Lancaster's team building. Lived on past glories since 2019.

Just watching now. This England tight five being a bunch of cowardly piece of shit grubs makes it easy to hate them eh. Kudos for bringing some feeling to it though I guess.

Billy looked like he kneed the Aussie 6 deliberately too.

Go Australia!

[Bones]

Oh and how the fuck did Hill not get a red? There's absolutely no room for that in the game and no defending it.

[Bones]

Hooper is a better player than he's ever been, game is so well rounded now.

[Bones]

Billy V yellow is bollocks, but probably goes some way towards justice.

[Bones]

Fuck yes you Qantas orange wallabies. Get fucked this cunting English side, I'd usually be supporting you but impossible right from the whistle. Eat some humble pie ya pricks.

[Bones]

Oh and I really don't understand sticking with Smith, let alone the hype around him. Long may him and the Vunipolas continue.

Pretty good! Screaming at lineouts, hooting at a minor scrum win, kneeing a guy on the ground, pulling hair. Pretty good to see it shoved down their throats.

[Victor Meldrew]

@Bones Yeah, weird game. Memorable. Pleased the Shackle-daggers won - loads of gust and deserved to come out on top.

[Bones]

@Victor-Meldrew like I said I'd usually support England but their behaviour was pretty foul. I let it all out on here so that I don't get a glare from Bonesetta.

Do your talking on the pitch, Eddie. Otherwise some lying bastard will call you a whingy fluffybunny.

When's his YouTube video coming out?

[Victor Meldrew]

@Machpants Seriously, I really hate this sort of shit in Rugby. Criticise the Refs by all means, but do it in private and thru the right channels.

It's supposed to be a game between men, FFS, not whiny flufflybunnies.

This will be interesting has Australia really improved after better SR performances.
Or are England in the decline.

England are dreadful. How the hell do you lose that?

[ARHS]

Thought this was a bit of a horror fest. Not a great game from Doleman. Should have carded Hill for the first incident right under his nose. He didn't and it went downhill from there.
I thought the telling point was the impact of the Aussie reserve forwards. Matt Phillip was just huge. Faingaa and Sio too.
Hill should sit out the rest of the tour alongside Swain. Cynical deliberate dirt...
