                  <p>Well done ABs, worthy champions. Enjoy the spoils, guys. Was great to see Richie and Dan at full flight one last time.</p>
                  <p> </p>
                  <p>Really proud of the Wallabies, so gutsy to get back in the contest in the second half. No disgrace in losing to that team at all. Played our hearts out.</p>

                    Man that was risky to leave him on but he lifted. Put in some big hits. He didn't play wide and kept him in the middle of the park where we were getting over the gain line.

                                Yeah baby! So fuckin happy. What a way for some true legends of the game to go out. DC sublime tonight. Richie also. Conrad setup the crucial try just before halftime. Woohoo !!!! 3 times world champs, black to black winners. Just doesn't get any better than this 🙂
