Wallabies v Pumas I
-
Wallabies lost a bit of their shape in that 2nd half, Argies are just a limited team overall, lacking the skills and intelligence. Way better watch overall than the dross served up earlier, though. Wallabies might feel they "lost" the BP, as they weren't as clinical as they should have been in the 1st half, but overall deserved result for both teams.

@nta said in Wallabies v Pumas I:
I think Kellaway was probably better than Kerevi tonight overall
Ball went Kellaway’s way a plenty. He also went looking for the work.
I missed bits and pieces because I had the AFL GF on the big screen and the Wallabies on the iPad, but how many tries did he score?

@act-crusader Kellaway got one, nearly had a second, and basically didn't make a mistake.

When they're executing their patterns you can see the foundations of a very good team in the Wallabies, but then they just fade out of matches for too long.
Quade's maturity and Kerevi's form have made a huge difference.

@nta Kellaway is the antithesis of a Wallaby back. Just does the things he's supposed to do properly and reliably and has no real flash or, god forbid, 'x-factor'.
Shit just isn't Australian.

You are the most consistent poster on TSF. When the Wallabies are doing well you tear into them, when they do well you tear into them as well. 3 games in a row, taking down the RWC champion. I guess one is sheer frustration the other mock outrage but if I was a Wallaby I'd wonder what could possibly make you happy.

@nostrildamus I read that as tongue in cheek appreciation -- but perhaps I was wrong

@nzzp yes I think it is, just that given what Derpus was saying when the Wallabies were losing, a bit of sunshine when they win 3 games in a row would be nice ...

You’re not wrong. For far too long Oz fans were so focused on x-factor or “running rugby”. But now they’ve got a good quality winger (who can play full back too) who does the basics at a high level and is getting the rewards for that hard work.
I like Kellaway’s game and a good balance with Koro who is a highlight reel waiting to happen but will make errors every game.

@act-crusader when Kellaway performed at Eden Park - twice - the Brumbies supporters were still talking up Wright
for the xfactor -
Watching back now - Kremer was being a bit of a cock all game, not just up until the yellow card.

@nostrildamus I was saying he's good.

Aw but Kellaway (8 Tests, 5 Tries) is no Tom Wright! (5 Tests, 1 try)
