Great work by Naholo, but gees the Aussies look spent. Some weak as fuck tackle attempts.

MiketheSnow

Aussie put all their effort in the first 40 and have nothing left

And didn't have the ball carriers to control multi-phase close quarter play and dictate the pace of the match

Yep, I personally don’t think he should be there, but he’s plus plus positive. Can’t drop him for this performance.

Haha, we just had 3 players stand at the ruck watching Pocock stay on his feet and steal the ball

Goodhue taken off the ball allows Pocock steal.

Yeah coming out with intensity is one thing , maintaining it for 80 is another

@no-quarter younsure after that pass?

Donsteppa

I am feeling sorry for Aussie now

Whenever I think that I might feel sorry for the Australians I just think of Phil Kearns, and all is quickly well again...

The old adage ‘the game starts up front’ well and truely rings true here.

Wallabies completely dominated at set piece and living off scraps all day long.

Kirwan

Brutal second half.

ACT Crusader

Some say being beaten by 25 points at home is a humiliation.

I’m one of those.

Stargazer

Great win; good contest in the first half. The Aussies were too tired in the 2nd. They still can't compete for 80 minutes.

@gunner their forwards are their Achilles heal again.

MiketheSnow

Quite a worry for The Championship when an 'average /rusty' AB performance yields a 25 point winning margin.

Not my words but mood of the Fern and commentators

Crazy Horse

@donsteppa Kearns is a dick but rugby is really struggling over here. Nobody gave a fuck this game was on.

Donsteppa

6 - 5 in the first half
7- 33 in the second half

MOTM: Retallick, Read, Cane.

Transformed our pack from poor to dominant.

You missed Goodhue

@crazy-horse the money they spent on Hooper was ridiculous. Speaks of desperation.

ACT Crusader

Really disappointed we gave away that intercept try, because that second half was close to a flawless performance.
