Wales v Australia

[KiwiMurph]

Wallabies have won their last 13 tests vs Wales. Wallabies to win.

[Machpants]

Yup as much as I love Wales (better half did a degree in Cardiff, great times!) they have a canary yellow blind spot. More kiwis in the 15 might've helped, but two's not enough

Wales has to beat Aust at some stage.

This stage.

@mikethesnow said in Wales v Australia:

Wales by 4-8.

Pessimist. If Wales win it will be by more than 9 points, and I back them to finally break that streak.

We're in complete disarray, we've got few ideas, and just can't seem to fire at the right moments or for long enough.

Therefore, having typed out all that, the fucking shunts will probably put in their best performance of the last 3 years and thrash Wales by 30.

Then lose to Italy.

Come on, it's Wales v Australia. You already know the script. Wales enter the game as probably favourites based as much on the disarray the Wallabies are in as their own form (which isn't bad).

They then proceed to play 65 minutes of pretty good rugby, without blowing the scoreboard open.

They will then make 2 pretty poor errors, allowing the Wallabies to jag back the lead with a few minutes left.

Wales will launch one last attack that looks very promising until an inconceivably stupid error or penalty finishes the game with them just behind on the scoreboard once again.

'twas ever thus

3 - 3 after 37 minutes. Nuff said.

[KiwiMurph]

O'Keeffe is a poor ref.

[akan004]

Who would have predicted that BB would be the most accurate kicker this weekend out of himself, Farrell and 1/2 Penny.

[akan004]

Dumb play by the wallabies. Turned down an easy 3 and came away with nothing.

[98blueandgold]

what a game!

They almost always do that, trying to go for tries from pens when they've got easy kickable pens.

[Damo]

There is a time and a place for it.

3 all in an ugly game is not the time and place to turn down kickable PK's

Maybe they were trying to make the game a prettier watch

[Squirrel]

Halfpenny nails a penalty. 6-3 Wales. 7 minutes left

[Machpants]

A perfect amount of time for Wales to believe then bottle it again letting in a try 🙄

[Tordah]

very good refereeing there not to penalise Kerevi for the chargedown, though the stadium is spewing

[sparky]

6-6 five to go. Only just started watching. Doesn't seem like i missed much.

Or let in a draw

[sparky]

Three minutes to go. Wales have a very, very kickable shot at goal. Dan Biggar hits it.

Wales 9 Aussie 6.
