Anyone who says Owens doesn't favour the All Blacks is pretty much kidding themselves. This guys gets it

Though Arnold should have just fucking smashed TJP on the spot, and not driven him back 5 metres. Maybe that's acceptable.

Perfectly OK for Franks to grab Timani 2 metres away from a tackle to prevent him forming a ruck, of course.

Even with Nige failing to referee the scrums with any sense, and giving the ABs a bit of a rub, we're in this for now, having given away 2 tries with poor execution.

TJP might not be every ones cup of tea, or craft beer, but thank fuck he is there because at least there is one AB out there tackling the guys who break through the forward defense line.

[hydro11]

Aussies look a lot better on attack but not up to much on defence. We definitely need to secure more possession.

[booboo]

Meh half of rugby.

Clarkie says "entertaining" on Fox Sports. Sums up expectations I suppose

Aus not looking awful.

Think we can lift a bit.

Not sure Wobs can.

Beaudy's goal kicking ... d'oh. He's not lighting it up yet either Beaudy fans. Time to bring on Cruden?

[Stargazer]

TJP and Todd the best ABs of the first half.

huh?

[antipodean]

Word for the first half is inaccurate. That's being kind. They're being outplayed by the Wallabies. Too many missed tackles, too many pushed passes.

Wallabies unlucky to be behind on the scoreboard.

If you're going to say "huh?" you'll have to ask which part of my ramblings in particular you're referring to.

Yeah probably. He's a Saffer.

Fuck off with the scrums already.

Why? Gave us TJP's try.

[dingo]

I like the way Oz are playing. Dome actual skill and intensity. Although I still think the ABs will walk away with it in the last 20.

Owens is biased towards the ABs? Same Owens that penalised our captain after the try back on halfway?

You're dreamin maaate

I think we're going to see a period after halftime where the ABs just go up a gear. They've shown the precision on attack a couple of times, and cut the Wobs apart.

We're playing fairly simple rugby: chuck the big boppers up the middle, then use a bit of shimmy out wide. Lot more options being provided to the single playmaker than the double playmaker.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Oh shit. Nicholas is on his 8th Tooheys.

I'll help you Hydro11 - The All Blacks are better and it's the referees fault.

[broughie]

AB forwards are soft tonight. Need a bit more starch like Cane or PT. Our locks are just meh tonight minus the lineout and scrums.

Do you question his competence? Or that an AB could possibly be penalised for unsportsmanlike play?

Yeah probably not. Anyone from SANZAR claiming to be neutral when the other two teams are playing is stretching it... I hardly become less interested in the Wallabies or the Springboks losing when you're playing someone else...
