Italy v Australia

It's good for world rugby that Italy are improved.
They now have an attacking game that can cause trouble.

But kick them out of the 6N

WTF. Bad result for NZ as we need a stronger Aust. Hope the team can sort themselves out and win at least one of their next 2 games

Yeah nah.
The ABs will continue to play what’s in front of them when it comes to the Wallabies. They’ve been inconsistent over the past 15 years - from very good to very poor. They don’t have great depth (not that unusual) and there were a bunch of newish players in this side. They didn’t perform and were whistled off the park because of poor discipline.

Ugh Pickerill is the ref? Nobody mentioned that...
how TF does that guy keep getting gigs above NPC where he most often looks out of his depth.

Get the winning opportunity but can't make the kick. Donaldson will be unhappy but it was gone before him.
Discipline continues to be something Rennie et al must be pulling their hair out on. If they could maybe focus on that and improving our ruck standards, we'd have won that in a canter.
The team was always going to be a bit disjointed and Italy had a week together to iron out their kinks.
Well done Italy.

Look longer term: we're a tier 2 nation. Everyone who thinks we're top tier haven't looked at the history of mostly average work, garnished with a couple of awesome stretches where we punched above our weight.

You only just beat Scotland. It doesn’t get much lower than that

They were keeping the powder dry for the victory over the ABs tomorrow.
