Big win for the Argies

Just looked at the stats on Rugbypass and Italy received a red card in the 14th minute. That probably doesn't tell the whole story, but still quite significant.

Yeah, glad they finally came to the party although they are only covering some matches.

The other games which are available on YouTube are geo blocked in Australia for whatever reason, but a VPN gets around this.

Just watched that Fiji v Oz game, thought the Fijian forwards really fronted up. Aussies have some genuine pace in their back 3.

Thought the Japanese ref was good but thought a few times he was quick to blow the whistle at the breakdown, not really allowing a contest as such.

Some awful decision making from the Aussies. Turning down points in front on a wet day. Stupid.

Ref made some interesting decisions
