Most of those changes make sense. Horne is a weird selection though. He wasn't in the original squad and is off overseas.
-
Moore is done, why bother bringing him back? I read today he still expects to play the RWC in 2019? fat fucking chance
-
-
@mariner4life I think he can expect what he wants, but fuck me I will change sides to the AB's if Moore is still around come 2019. No fucking idea in chanting for a team that shapes itself for failure.

@NTA you might win this ...

Was going to take the boys to see this, but I think my hard-earned will be much better spent on Despicable Me 3.

A prop with a name Ferrari - let's hope Quade doesn't try and steal the guy.

Should provide plenty of punch off the bench.....
-
@KiwiMurph nicely played
He's a good player, that kid. Not sure he deserves elevation straight after a long injury layoff, but I've given up asking questions about merit.
-
Can't believe that try wasn't awarded. Geez.
-
Bloody hell , just switched over to this game ,
Australia up by 1 point , man in the bin 7 mins to go ,
Italy
-
@kiwiinmelb Yup, and the man in the bin is the prop which is said to be about to sign with the Canes. Not sure he can scrum that well ....
-
Foley the man!!! Was never in doubt.
-
Foley in.
Italy totally fucked that up by box kicking away possession, giving away the penalty, then giving away another (with a YC you muppet).
Fuck me, Aussie has done their best to lose this.
35-27 with 1 minute to go.
-
Hilarious, now Hodge in.
40-27.
-
Wow, that is a very flattering final score for the Aussies.
-
Italy v Scotland in the 6N is going to be interesting 😉
-
Who won?
-
@jegga The Aussies won 40-27, but until a few minutes before full-time, it was still 28-27.
Edited to add that the Italians also had a try disallowed early in the game that should have been given.

Eales has no personality and is fucking deluded about the state of Australian rugby

what did he say?
-
Watching highlights: Italian fullback had a mare. Watching full game now. Fuck we're purely a confidence team.
ABs will put at least 50 on us on both games.
-
Crowd was appalling. These games are surely running at a loss for the ARU - why bother?

I worked with a woman who had worked closely with Eales in a previous role and if I may paraphrase her; employed because he captained the Wallaby team. Certainly no Nick Farr-Jones.
-
Behaviour of the italian players after scoring their last try was fucking disgusting.

Missed it.
Please explain.
-
@booboo im a bit precious about how teams celebrate tries when opponent still in the 'mix'.
Italian scores in a tackle, Aussie on top of him.
2 italian celebrators arrive and flop, trapping the Aussie on top of the scorer.
More celebrators arrive, and one starts yanking the trapped Aussie violently, attempting to pull him out but he's trapped.The discipline of the modern rugby playe to not react when provoked is amazing, but this is going to lead to trouble. Plus, it's ugly.
-
Thanks @Rapido.
I googled videos of highlights. Got the tries but not post try celebrations.
