There aren't many players in world rugby I respect more th Hooper

Gives absolutely everything every game

Seems like a bloke I wouldn't mind having a beer with, if only to try and get an understanding of such fucking dedication.
But certainly WOULD mind standing between him and a tryline, or even a rugby ball.

The antithesis of Owen Farrell.

Christ, can you imagine a pint with Farrell?
That warrants a “Day in the life of BOD” type post.
Every line from Owen starting... “Owen pouts, and whines.... 'It wasn't fair, I just....'"

Wallabies will win this

No matter who wins, I guarantee it will be a famous victory…

Nothing in that

more in that than the headbutt lol

An intentional headbutt is very different from someone running into your shoulder!

well assuming it wasn't intentional shoulder to head..the headbutt was dumb but hardly touched him either, we are assuming the shoulder wasn't deliberate

edit: i don't condone the headbutt by the way

England are garbage. No skill.

They have really regressed. Building teams may not be Eddie's forte.

You think?

Kerevi is basically playing like a blindside flanker. His in close running in the last 10 minutes has been awesome.

Possibly more than some of Team England...

Ah nice. Wasn't a maul try but the Poms had to collapse to stop it.

No Quarter

A couple of important kicks from Lolesio there to give them a 9 point lead

Bang 9 point lead with 9 to play

If I get bored, I'm actually fucking tempted to do “A pint with Owen Farrell”.
In the meantime... a try for Wallabies? I'm starting to feel happy I stayed up, despite being sick as a dog, and this going to elongate my fucked-ness for at least one day.

England just woke up. Good build up.

Sheesh Fainga’a lucky there.

MiketheSnow

Solid debut for the Aussie old fella

mariner4life

Lol.the rucks are a shitfight

The only reason Lawes couldn't clean that is the wallabies tackler stood up in the ruck

ACT Crusader

@mariner4life how the ref missed Fainga’a doing that is beyond me. On another day that could’ve been interpreted as cynical given England were in the red zone.
