Haha! How can they have another hooker?

So two YCs for the Oz hooker?

Yup.

[Bones]

I think Scotland just got bluffed out of taking a scrum.

[ACT Crusader]

shame they didn’t keep going with the maul.

[KiwiMurph]

wonderful defence by the Wallaroos.

Yeah. They shouldn’t have kicked for touch as the wind was only giving them 5 metres. Should have taken the scrum anyway as Oz were putting backs into the scrum for numbers.
I’d love to see if they really did have three nominated hookers. Looking to bring a starting prop back in to fill the role?

[Crucial]

Tough for Scotland. Two close losses.
Straya will be scraping for hookers against Wales.
They really need to tidy up their tackles. Should have had a red against NZ and probably at least one more yellow.

[Bones]

@Crucial yeah I guess if your hookers play like that then you might be inclined to nominate a 3rd, but I really doubt they did. They'll be laughing about that.

[Bones]

I hear from all the British commentators that all these games are being played in Fangaree. Here's hoping there's no games in places like Worsesesstershirry if they have the cup in the UK.

Bill McLaren had to say someone played for the whakarewarewa club when Scotland toured here back in 96. He then had the good sense to apologise and say that he hoped he didn’t have to say it again. Such an old pro.

This Scotland V Aus game is a good watch.

The Sweaties leading 12-0 after about 30 and if they get close line outs have Aus really under the pump
In the maul.

Suck on that @NTA you guys just embarrass yourselves when it comes to competing with the mighty Scots

This post aged badly.

Frances 9 is the anti Dupont

Pom pack has an ominous look to them compared to the other ladies sides

[KiwiMurph]

French wingers have hands like feet.

I hope the ferns are ready for a lot of kicking

[Machpants]

And upright tackling,, the French are risking cards

[Crucial]

Watching this Blue team closely. According to Rugby World Cup history we will play them in the final.

Man England's attack is so blunt, quite lame. But they can grind into points.

That French defence is pretty impressive. Midfield are deadly.

I wish the ref would pick up on the way that England send a cleaner straight past the side of the tackle to take out arriving defenders.
