Wallabies v Lions II
-
Shame the series isn’t tied but the Aussies put up a fight tonight. Should be proud but super guttering nevertheless.
A win would have been great for Aus rugby.
Plus, Itoje is a cock and Pollock seems like an even bigger twat.
-
If valetini plays even 70 minutes wallabies win.
Wallabies defence is appallingly bad.
-
Poor coaching by Schmidt to have taken off the only two forwards providing front foot ball - the loss of Valentini and Skelton was immense.

Only needed five more minutes from them too.

Don’t know why Valentini went off but Skelton was absolutely buggered.

Sualilii defending on the outside as poorly as every other NRL convert who’s attempted to play in the midfield

Looked like he was playing touch rugby on a couple occasions.

I thought Ikitau was uncharacteristically poor in the tackle as well, some really soft misses. Shame they couldn't get it done but it's always going to be hard if your midfield defence is a sieve.

Here's the Upset Aussie Fan in me:
Fuck me dead, how do you not find a penalty for the attacking side flying into that ruck with no desire or attempt to keep their feet whatsoever? Are we just throwing player safety out the window now? Not a fucking chance in hell Morgan was looking to do anything but seal off and take out the jackal while he was at it.
Fuck me dead, how did Genge win penalties at scrum time with his elbow pointing toward the ground? Open your fucking eyes ref - he couldn't win legally so he just fucking dropped it and you chickened the fuck out.
Where's the fucking medical staff looking at Conan after he could barely get back to his fucking feet early in the game? Do your fucking jobs, you fluffybunnies.

I had the commentary turned off but to me it looked like Morgan made no attempt to stay on his feet, had his head below his hips, and connected with the back of the Wallabies neck. So for those who are saying it's not a penalty take me through it.
