RWC: Australia v Wales (Pool D)

Oz should've gone for a try instead of kicking that Penalty. Hats off to Wales.

WC has delivered this weekend!

Excellent test match.

Both sides still very much in this WC.

Think Oz might feel a bit hard done by there

They've been offside and off their feet all match

Well done, Wales. Great defence and composure. Real RWC contenders.

Nah, they looked very average for long periods of that game

[pakman]

Excellent game. Oz unlucky. Credit to Wales: they found a way to win, despite being the lesser team for a lot of the match.

[Steven Harris]

Actually feel for Aussies, the officiating was diabolical, these 2 French referees must be part of the entertainment package at this year’s RWC..you really don’t know what your gonna get..

As were you. And you got that last turnover off your feet!

Great test!! Well done both sides

Wales' game management in the last 10 minutes was excellent

Pretty even game really, both teams did things very well. That bit just before half time ends up telling.

[Jailbreak7]

That Welsh half back is a real live wire

[antipodean]

Genia's loopy pass to no one just before half time ends up being the difference.

Yep, that was a killer

[JC]

Well Hooper couldn’t really have done much more.

[Kirwan]

That was a bloody entertaining game. It was like a knock out game

[sparky]

F**king great test.

Add this to Booboo's collection of Rugby World Cup Classics.

He's a machine. His workload is immense and has to be carrying Bono Cockwomble through the game: A third of the backrow offering nothing in half the game.

[Rapido]

Great game. Good comeback by Oz.

[westcoastie]

The AB's and SA have such an advantage now having played their big game first.
These other sides will have to expel so much energy by the 1/4s - those two, just have two big games to make the final. England have to get through Argentina, France + two x Tier 1 teams to make final. Ireland, Scotland, Japan are going to scrap it the whole way through pool play.

Congrats Wales, hard luck Aus.

Exactly. Went for and against both sides not just Oz

[Tim]

France "dark horse" so far. England, NZ, SA, Wales the other contenders.
