[Billy Tell]

Surely that was obstruction.

I thought so too but the big lock kept hold of the ball as he ran backwards. Really technical move

[sparky]

Aussie scrum already struggling.

[MiketheSnow]

Hooper is an amazing athlete

[MiketheSnow]

Scotland were lucky there

Australia opened them up quite easily

[sparky]

Hooper scores. 7-7.

[MiketheSnow]

Intent was there, execution non-existent

[MiketheSnow]

No try, YC

[sparky]

Try ruled out. Terrible decision by the TMO. Very minimal contact with the face and the guy shouldn't have been lying there trying to kill the ball. Scots milked it too.

[Billy Tell]

Poite + the SA guy in the tmo box. You know there will be controversy.

[sparky]

What about the contact on Hooper after he scored? I thought that was much worse.

[MajorRage]

That’s a terrible call

[sparky]

O'connor kicks a goal. 7-3 after 39 minutes

[MiketheSnow]

Great first half

Australia in the ascendancy despite being a man down

[sparky]

Scots defence parts like the Red Sea. Aussie in.

[Billy Tell]

That Australian 7 looks like he’s been plucked out of the 80s. Stubbies, a singlet and jandals (thongs…) to complete the look.

[Billy Tell]

That was a sensational tackle from JOc

[sparky]

Commentators saying this is Poitre's last international. What a shame, not!

I heard he has a book deal.

[sparky]

Scotland get a 2nd. 12-10 with 20 to go.
