What helps Lebanon is this is Australia’s 3rd string team, still will be lucky to get within 40 imo

Yes. But these players are more attacking oriented and could potentially put on a bigger score against a lesser nation.

Munster and Tommy Turbo in the centres... some serious pace, strength and footwork there. Against an NZ team it would be a step back. But in a game with probably 60%+ possession. All the field position. I think this team has more points in them.

Heading down to this game. Hopefully Lebanon can put up abit of a fight.

Good result for Lebanon if they contain Australia as well as they did England last week. Crowd will go nuts if they score a few tries.

I don't think this will be the biggest flogging this weekend.

 

[This Year?]

I refuse to cheer for any side that has Slater and Smith in it.

Go Lebanon!!

 

[Rhyno]

Australia by 36

Has there ever been a World Cup game with a 100 points scored?

If Australia is serious there is no reason why it shouldn’t happen tonight

What are the odds that the Lebanon PM turns up at the game?

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

2 games have gone down to the wire.

Can we get a third?

No?

Ok then.

 

[Pedge1971]

I am hoping they really come out and stick it to us.

Nah

Australia are far too disciplined & talented to let a minnow nation get close to them. Would love for a close contest though

Both weraring predominately green jerseys and shorts. It’s not that hard to organise.

 

[Storm13]

Be good if Australia could create a true alternate jersey.

Are you even watching?

 

[Pedge1971]

Pretty average looking crowd. Sydney only deserved 2 games. And that is for the Lebanese community not Aussies.

 

[carlosthedwarf]

Are you even watching?

Yes. There’s enough white but the shorts should be different.

 

[Storm13]

That rule is shit.
