Australia vs England (2nd Test) - 09/07/22

Watching the games today I don’t know how rugby can continue as a sport once the effects of multiple concussions are fully realised and accepted.

 

[Crash Hamster]

Ouch.
Good job Jones went 6-2 and brought Isiekwe in for Willis on the ben... oh.

 

[Scotty]

How is there only 31 minutes played at 11:47?

I need this half to end, i go to work in 1 hour game finished or not.

 

[TommiG88]

Disagree tbh. Aus have looked very dangerous ball in hand.

Have been passive in defence, yet we only have one try

 

[Scotty]

When was the last time we played without Itoje and curry? Vs tier 1s teams.

 

[Duck a l'Orange]

Have been passive in defence, yet we only have one try

And yet brilliant in the scramble. They've not exactly gone to pieces.

 

[Grizwald]

England had their feet on the throat of the aussies. Some poor decesion making, discipline, and that scrum pen have let the Aussies back in.

 

[Grizwald]

Fark Farrell.

 

[BrokenWing]

If you’re gonna half arse going for touch, you might as well half arse going for goal.

 

[TommiG88]

And yet brilliant in the scramble. They've not exactly gone to pieces.

Where did I say that that they have gone to pieces?

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

Better. JVP looking quite composed.

You make the risks known, do what you reasonably can to reduce risks (this has happened), provide support for people affected by injury and allow people to play if they wish. I've seen studies where findings indicate even running can cause brain injuries, I'm not sure what we can do.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

FFS “ been a very good first half but will we see Henry Arundell, he’s a superstar in the making”

 

[Crash Hamster]

"When will we see Arundell?" klaxon.

 

[Duck a l'Orange]

This series has been plagued with injuries.

 

[TommiG88]

Poor Aus

 

[TRF_Olyy]

JOC begging not to be sent on to play 15, it guarantees a serious injury to a joint in one of your limbs

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Not good seeing Aussies picking up all these injuries. Been very unlucky, unless it is a symptom of overtraining?

 

[TommiG88]

3rd full back injury for Aus in 2 games. Cursed

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Winning a test series through legally and unintentionally injuring the opposition is one way to do it!
