89 @ McLook:
Yip…. hulle is behoorlik omgesukkel, en oorheers alle fassette
Deans’ie are going to get analihated in the Oz media after this one.
France scum panalty, Slipper slipping the bind… the slippery fool
France getting great front foot ball… and running onto the ball with pace and verve
I like the French play off the line out. Boks should study what they do.
@ grootblousmile:
Yip, that’s in essence the difference between them and us.
95 @ McLook:
Yip, flat ball taken at speed…. very good
When the French turn up, they are such a pleasure to watch. Having said that, they always seem to up their game against the sheepshaggers
Shyte French player just butchered a try by hestitating at he ruck on the goal line.
Penalty Try to France…. Wallas in tatters
Owens wasn’t going near that fracas!!!
Penalty try. Aussie reputation of negative play at the scrums costing them. High time.
France 30 / 6 Wallabies
Turning out to be quite a rout!
@ Just For Kicks:
Yip he stayed well clear off it.
Oh dear
Tip Tackle…. could be a Card to a Walla!
@ Just For Kicks:
Red card material I reckon.
Refs did not get the number of Number 19…. so no card
Did he show a white card for it?
Great French defence.
Wallas over the line…
TMO
And how the French can have the worst brain farts out of any nation sometimes. Trying to run it out like that is just daft.
Unsighted. No try I reckon.
@ McLook:Very surprised there was no white card – do they use them in the NH?
Could be a try by Adam Ashley-Cooper….
No try, Parra’s hand under it.
Aussie scrum 5
Relieving penalty to France, from the scrum
11 Minutes to go
@ McLook:I really enjoyed your last article. Very well written, and a great continuation of the walk through the history of SA rugby. You have an incredible mind – fark, I can’t remember yesterday!
Why is Deans not coming off as Wallaby coach? What do you fellas think is the reason why the Ozzies keep on taking one step forward and 5 steps back with Deans as coach?
