Good call nic, Henry is a great coach and it shows (I'm dubious about the selections though) but it's funny how when the ABs lose it's all Henrys fault but when the Wallabies lose it's all the players fault.
(According to inbred country anyway). |

| Once again GH shows that he does all his best talking at half time. He goes in with one game plan, if it isn't working he changes it. He and his co coaches have done this with a good deal of success over the past 2 seasons. How many games have we been behind at half time and gone on to win? IMO it is just what I like to see from the coaching panel, it goes to show they DO have a plan B, something they have been criticised for in earlier seasons. |

| j.hukui, Do you read your own krapp?? If you did you would realise that, according to your summation, the wallabies couldn't even beat a team of "average" performers.... I agree , they couldn't!! |

not impressed with the ref he looked impatient but he has to realise that the TMO gets paid for a reason, even if it takes forever to get it right.
maybe he used the benefit of the doubt but i never heard it come across on his mouthpiece ...
but then again watching dingo singing the aussie anthem with arms around each other proved that they are definitely under pressure and put on a show of unity in front of his boss - but with the same outcome:):0
Ted must surely be a nightmare for dingo and his entourage.
and the fact he escorted elsom out after halftime also shows a bit of insecurity if you tell me. elsom is an international athlete whos been around - doesnt need anyone to hold his hand - or does he? hahaha
ted 7
dingo 1..... |

changes for sure, for a top team and hopefully a ruthless selection policy
Tialata out (but a Henry favourite), Owen Franks in
Love Rods but Keiron read is a better 8 at the moment, and kaino off the bench, lacked some backrow contact in the ruck and maul, untill prob Read came on..
Thats probably it, cant do much anywhere else, thinking Wales may be a harder gamem hard to measure the lineout, Aussie arnt much at the moment, we shall see |

| The lineout was competitive and it went well,ABs were defensively very good.What the use having that video ref when he cnt get it rite?The whole of NZ saw that they was short in scoring their first and only try but hey a win is a win.It was a good game but not one of the great ones,lets hope D.C leg is ok. |

Average game, well played to the victors. Aside from his boot Carter was looking sub par with that niggle he had on. Why the coaches insist he stay on that long for a nothing game was a bit overboard but thats just my opinion.
McCaw played like a champ. Sivi a bit rusty with no ANZ under his belt. So'oialo...looks tired. On the plus for the aussies ashley cooper has always been a step above Barnes in book and last night he showed why. Genia a real revelation for the future Wallabies pack. G Smith at 8, i dont think so. He runs rings around Poc*ck as a scavanging 7 so why put him at the back of the scrum where he's an undersize 8? Give yourself a uppercut Deans, that ones a fail.
Main thing the AB's need to work on: tidy up that ruck area.
We all know how the NH refs love to police that area of play. There were a few calls that went the AB's way last night (particularly in the ruck) that probably wouldnt go down so well up north. |

Bro Tialat was sh1te, wouldnt call it analysis anyways, comments during the games, (and that was end of first half) but what ever C Smith had a much better 2nd half..
and tell me Soialo is on form?, he is not our no 1 8 |

I'm glad the ABs won so I can write the following:
That Wallaby try was the biggest load of bullshyt I've seen in a long time- the idiot video ref bungled around and the bigger idiot ref just gave it because he got sick of waiting- no way was that a try.
But again the Wallabies seemed a clueless rabble (don't know why- they have the greatest coach who ever lived).
As far as I'm concerned it was 32-12! |
