Didn't look like he took it back.

Didn't look like he took it back.

It was touched after the kick.

 

[Cruz_del_Sur]

My bad. Thanks for the correction.

 

[Bluemoon]

Aus not managing the game well now. They need a bit of composure.

Commentator says a big psychological win for the Aus to lack of distance on the pen kick. Forgetting 30 seconds ago, Aus had the ball in the NZ 22.

SBW...... With the game on the line.... You grubber......... You absolute DONKEY.

It's the 2nd Lions test all over again for SBW, what an idiot.

 

[Cruz_del_Sur]

Well done Aus!

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Bloody well done Oz. Hodge is something special.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Nice! Good job too because NZ aren't losing to any of the NH sides they picked.

 

[GoTheNaki]

Donkey.

 

[Bluemoon]

Well deserved win for Aus, some brilliant rugby played. NZ just couldn't get any momentum.

 

[GoTheNaki]

Aussie looked good though. I hope they go forward on this.

 

[RoosTah]

Wow! What a cracker of a test. ABs looked to be playing the smarter footy in the first half, but the Wallabies really outplayed them in the 2nd. Almost ****** it in the end there by trying to kill time with one out crap at the end.

Last two matches for NZ:

Win by 1 point against South Africa

Lose to Australia by 5 points

Turning point for NZ dominance in International rugby?

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

I doubt it. Just a ton of injuries/unavailabilities taking its toll:
Moody, Franks, Retallick, Todd, Barrett x2, NMS, Dagg, Smith

Could well be forgetting some.

Good outcome for Rugby, hope the Wallabies dont let it go to their head, not the best Kiwi team due to injuries and selections and a dead rubber, but still good commitment from the Wallabies and a really entertaining match.

No doubt the Wallabies have improved significantly, the draw in SA and now this win is definitely progress. I expect this will inspire the mind games from Eddie Jones, he will be more concerned about the EOYT given Australia's recent form.

EDIT - nice touch from Read in the after match interview, he is a real sportsman.

Wow. Congrats WBs. Smarter team won. Epic

My god. This game.

150 - 0: ABs. 100%.

Accurate as ever

 

[galumay]

Accurate as ever

No doubt he will have a witty retort that explains the magin of error!!

Thanks aus. ABs needed a good lesson. We needled this game. Reality check.
Second string have a long way to reach the incumbents but they're on the right track. ABs fought hard but WBs way more savvy and showed heart.
Don't mind losing to a better team. So entertaining , edge of seat , game.
This is rugby the way it should be.
