[2020 RC/Tri Nations] Round 1: Australia v New Zealand (Bledisloe 3) (31/10/2020)

[Groundhog]

Lol it's happening. 13 just dad strenghted his way through there. What an awful conversion though

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Petaia is some boy

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Whitelock's swollen eye makes him look like he's slowly morphing into Brodie.

 

[Groundhog]

Aussies haven't got the message you have to be ruthless with your clearouts. Why is one man left to clearout two Kiwis?

 

[The Seeker]

Australia are so bad,

Also what's with playing 65 bledisloes a year? Talk about removing any form of excitement about what used to be a highlight of the rugby calendar

I think a 2 out of 3 competition would be better and less painful for Wallabies fans. Why prolong the inevitable? It's cruel.

TBh their competition as the ruck has been lacking all game. At the start I was genuinely wondering if they were told not to compete at the breakdown.

 

[mdaclarke]

If Aaron Smith actually played the ball instead of pointing at it and shouting he would be an even better player.

It was him doing that at the breakdown that caused the first Aussie try

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

That was sad to watch

 

[Groundhog]

Petaia dragging australia into this kicking and screaming.

 

[The Seeker]

It's 3:22 am here in California. I've dedicated most of my night to this predictable match. Ugh.

 

[Reiser99]

Going to be honest, generally like the Aussie and NZ accents, but I can't stand it when they say 'debut'.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Didn't realise Parling's on the Oz coaching staff.
That's real unfortunate.

You've got it mixed up, it's actually what they call Halloween there.

Well it is pretty scary if you're a Wallabies fan.

 

[Reiser99]

Yellow as he ducks down?

 

[The Seeker]

The execution is finally over. Good night/good day to all of you depending on your time zone.

 

[GoTheNaki]

Didn't check the kick-off, just thought it mighta been a Sunday again like the first two games... Lol. Whoops.

 

[Reiser99]

Didn't miss much. Even from an all blacks perspective they played well, but not going to learn too much when the opponents struggle that badly.

 

[Umaga's Witness]

Wallabies played well _________________
in 5 instances and horrifically poorly in the Other 235.

A million mistakes in the second half when they were desperate, can't really blame them for trying except for some plain dumb offloads.

 

[Oliver Madden]

That was an absolute thrashing . One way traffic from first minute to last. The intensity from the AB's was awesome.
