[Canard]

But But LU told me Australia would win by 60!

 

[Rebel]

Raped by the refs again. Nothing changes.

Still, bloody good effort with a second string kiwi side up against a full strength aussie side.

 

[MacDougall]

Hey so let's talk about how good Martin Taupau is.

 

[vvvrulz]

Pass looked suspect at first but looked ok on the reply.
I have no issue with that.

 

[Sphagnum]

Ref tried to keep nZ in it all night but class prevails. Toss up between coroner and Boyd for MotM.

 

[Bovrick]

I think the last pass was ok looking at the replay. Just Morris running at full pelt making it look forward.

 

[insert.pause]

f**king Cronk the useless merkin. Should just retire already.

I didn't say he wasn't a good captain.

 

[Jason Maher]

Nightingale fail. Has been awful all game

He's on one leg. Should have gone off.

We dominated as soon as we showed up.

You got 2 blatantly wrong calls go your way when you were losing to help you back into the game. Not the refs fault youse managed to stuff it up.

 

[Snappy]

that pass was fine. But have a whinge if it make ya feel better

 

[user_nat]

Cordner wasn't even in the starting side a week ago, and now he is playing 80. Odd.

Been the best of Australia's backrow though.

 

[Springs]

Crowd looked bigger, but respectable enough.

Well selfishness is even worse than just having a bad game. If that was a real injury he's letting his entire team down.

The refs were crap but I don't think it would have mattered in the end.

We threw everything at them, they were poor, and even then we're losing comfortably and were always going to do so.

What a great effort from us though, this could have been 50 points on us.

 

[Snappy]

Beale has been quiet

 

[Rebel]

Yet you ignore the BS penalties you go and the forward passes. Typical.

 

[some11]

That's a terrible kick.

1. Hiku
6. Harris/John
7. Johnson
9. Henry/Havili

And Gould says "maybe they lacked a little finesse when it counted".

 

[MacDougall]

RTS should have just kept playing hot potato. Something would have happened eventually.
