AB Test Team v France.

[No Quarter]

The last 20 minutes has been club level footy from both sides. Poor handling, bad decision making, just messy as fuck.

[Gunner]

@crucial the ref and the ABs deserve every bit of criticism they’ve received. It’s hard to know who of the two has been worse this half

[JC]

Both teams equally shit at the moment.

Penalty try, that fat tub of lard in the blue 13 jersey prevented a try by playing a certain try scorer without the ball

Oh, come on! No fat shaming here!

[Mokey]

Angus has been far too kind toward the shit French scrum this half.

[chimoaus]

I wonder how many halves we have lost this year? We have had some shockers.

[taniwharugby]

@chimoaus especially 2nd halves...which we used to own

[Crucial]

We are simply losing our cool out there.
The upshot is though that when we played well we made more points than we have given when making mistakes.
I know everyone will think I'm simply white knighting DMac but his good plays made more points than his errors gave away. That's a positive return.

[JC]

One of my takeaways from this game is that Romano looks to be an excellent scrumming lock. Another is that we should be playing Matt Todd as often as possible

[Victor Meldrew]

@donsteppa It's both. The Ref looks to be panicking and teh AB's are playing like shit

[westcoastie]

I do not want to see Beaudy going back to 15. Our bench balance is wrong. We're missing Ben Smith, Dagg & Jordie Barrett in that regards.

[chimoaus]

@crucial Any AB 15 should be able to catch and pass and run support. The mistakes and poor decision making he brings is not suited to this level imo.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Is Tranny Duck still alive?

[Mokey]

Man I hope we score some points this half.

[JC]

@victor-meldrew Yeah, ABs scoreless in the 2nd half and to be fair haven’t looked like working a try.

[westcoastie]

Probably lucky ALB didn't cop a yellow for that offside... Angus has no fucking clue.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Yes! Only good thing they've done this half.

[KiwiMurph]

Fuck yes what a scrum.

[Victor Meldrew]

@jc Worst 40mins of AB rugby I've seen since RWC2007 v France

Except we'll likely win this one

Looking forward to Dagg and J Barrett being available again.

DMac is one of those players who ends up being very average on balancing his brilliance vs gifting the ball away.
