    @pooler-fan said in RWC Week 3: Wales v Australia:

    Why do Australia play in orange these days?

    2 or 3 years ago, Rugby Australia did a review of all the ways they'd been fucking up and passing off fans. One of the things they found was that changing the colour of the jersey every year or two was maybe not a great idea - it kept changing from gold to muscanary yellow to orange to mustard. So they said we'll run a fan survey, and whatever they choose we will stick with.

    They got a few classic shirts from over the years, and the 1991 jersey won the poll. 1991 was a lot more orange than any recent jerseys, so that's what they wear now.

    Unfortunately it's coincided with them starting to play like the Dutch national team.

    @Billy-Tell All on a whim as soon as Eddie left England. Zero planning. Much as it is now.

    @Canes4life if the Wallabies do get knocked out , all the mugs that sacked Rennie and bought Eddie in should be sacked .
    I have probably just reversed cursed him 🤦🏻‍♂️

    Was he sacked for rugby or political reasons?

    Dave wasn't Australian.

    Wales far more controlled so far, just lacking a bit of penetration. Good kicking game

    LOL nice to see that typical Aussie scrum BS get called for what it is... (they got away with it way too much in SR and RC)

    Basically wheeling or walking around the scrum .... in the same bag of tricks of not taking the hit etc.. Barnes had none of it.

    Jeez Aussie are a shambles. Selections are mud, they look poorly coached.

    Pathetic for a WC side.

    I would suggest Aussie needs to score next - otherwise it could be Aussie Aussie Aussie, gone gone gone (Foster still has a chance at matching it though)

    Try to Wales. Chip over the top with no fullback covering.

    Australia looked cooked.

    Sayonara Australia. What a disaster since jones arrived. They’ve barely won a match

    Anscombe was always a classy player.

    Australia look like they are half asleep the whole time. Nothing is done with urgency, what do they even do at training?

    Bye bye Australia, bye bye Eddie.

    Yup hard to see the Aussies coming back from that now...... Anscomb with a lovely chip through (BB take note- not a dinky shit cross kick)

    Aussie gone - looking like a shambles now

    Can we get Valentini to change nationality in a week?

    Samu Kerevi is a shadow of his former self. Eddie's "coaching"?
