Spring Tour: Australia vs Scotland. (05/06/2012, 09:35 GMT)

[Darwin]

Ford doesn't realise he is meant to throw the ball in the channel between the two teams, rather than the channel between his forwards and his halfback......

EDIT: Now a shocking box-kick by Scotland..... lets see if Australia can take advantage...

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Wind is playing hell with the kickers, barely making any ground at all with the kicks, they're going in a L shape almost.

 

[Darwin]

I'm not sure why Scotland keep trying to put in high kicks though -if they want to get any distance they need to kick a lot flatter....

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Shouldn't have tried to run that, Pocock was right in there.
Australia will maul this, their maul has gone well so far tonight.

 

[Darwin]

WTF? Turing down a kick at goal to go for the lineout?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Held up, surely.

Big scrum needed by Scotland if it is.

Yeah couldn't see a thing. Aussie thought they had scored as they were back on halfway!

EDIT: Aussie call for a scrum from a penalty? This is madness

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Discipline needed now or they could get carded.


Ref got floored as well :lol:






Edit: Great defence by the Scots. Thought they'd turned it over when it got hacked away - saw the Aussies knock it on a couple of times in the ensuing rucks as well...
Aussie scrum now.

 

[big ginger 8]

MH is seriously crushing on Pocock.

 

[Darwin]

Discipline needed now or they could get carded.


Ref got floored as well :lol:

Highlight of the match thus far

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Great effort by the Scots on their line - 10+ mins of putting their bodies on the line and they get the penalty to clear their lines....before arseing it all up


Made up for it with another penalty at the breakdown though.
That was a terrible throw in though!

 

[Darwin]

Ford stuffs up another lineout....

Hooper on now for Australia - now both teams have two opensides on the field...

EDIT: Time for a droppie?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

More great defence from the Scots.

Backed up with another terrible lineout.

 

[Darwin]

Drop goal. Right decision. Poor execution.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Chance for Australia from way out - can't see them getting this, the last one was short and this has more of an angle as well.

 

[Darwin]

This one didn't even get above the cross-bar :lol:

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Did say this was a cracking game earlier!

 

[dudeabides]

Scotland giving them as many late chances as they can?

 

[Darwin]

Massive error by Harris.

One final chance for Scotland from this scrum...

 

[TRF Mr Fish]

Should've gone for drop goals!!! Both teams are stupid!

Only one attempt in this whole game... Sigh.
