[QUOTE="Umaga's Witness, post: 1134477, member: 65365"] Australian rugby is Miles better in defence and at the breakdown. The reds that won 2021 super rugby AU were a massive joke of a team who couldn't tackle; so were all the other teams. Hell, people even thought Harry wilson was good, a guy who missed more tackles than he made. The player stock to choose from for internationals was atrocious. They are much better now even if super rugby teams still aren't beating NZ teams much, they are at least more competitive. 38 per cent isn't bad given the quality of opposition they play, the players available before injuries, and then accounting for all the injuries. Northern hemisphere teams are much better now and so is Argentina. Add to that the wallabies haven't been playing tier two nations. The all blacks have had only a sixty percent success rate or something, and their player base s far better than Australia's. But the player base in Europe is good too, Frances definitely better. There's no denying the wallabies can field a very strong team when at full strength, but rennie pretty much never had close to full strength. Yet he still almost beat Ireland with an under strength side. Eddie for this game has had a better set of players ti choose from than rennie ever did [/QUOTE]
