Australian Wallabies (16) 47 / 26 (12) New Zealand All Blacks (Final Score)
All Blacks now have the unenviable record for The Rugby Championship 2019 of:
Won 1
Drawn 1
Lost 1
Wallabies in The Rugby Championship 2019:
Lost 1
Won 2
THAT was an unexpected result!
Come on Springboks, take The Rugby Championship 2019 in style, please!
Awesome game by the Wallabies!!
Players who absolutely stood out:
Kurtley Beale
Reece Hodge
James O’Connor
Samu Kerevi
Nic White
Michael Hooper
Lukhan Salakaia-Loto
Rory Arnold
Nic White should be Man Of The Match!
Should Los Pumas win tonight, the All Blacks will end LAST in The Rugby Championship 2019.
Should the Springboks win, they will win The Rugby Championship 2019.
Like I said… the All Blacks are vulnerable in 2019.
Their combinations are not settled, they are unsure about who should play No 10 and 15.
Their defences against tries have not been solid.
They are vulnerable in the forwards and in ground-ball situations…
Steve Hansen might say what he wants about The Rugby Championship not being important in 2019… but it is the way the All Blacks have played which WILL worry him!
– Fullback: Not a settled position
– Wings: Still experimenting… and Ben Smith should be moved back to fullback
– Centres: Not settled
– Flyhalf: Still open questions between Richie Mo’unga vs Beauden Barrett and Beauden Barrett’s kicking at goal very suspect
– Scrumhalf: Seems Aaron Smith and TJ Perenara the 2 preferred scrumhalves… but Brad Weber should have been given a chance or 2 as well
– No 8: Kieran Read not the man he was before at, No 8
– Looseforwards: In general all are solid, but combinations are not settled… and they have given a lot of turnovers away at the ground-ball situations
– Locks: The loss of Brodie Retallick to injury was massive and today Scott Barrett was Red-carded… so there are questions to be answered in the locks… and Hansen is no nearer to finality there
– Hooker: Dane Coles seems to be the best hooker going forward
– Props: Some scrum penalties against the All Blacks props
So, Hansen in my mind is not closer to his answers since the start of The Rugby Championship, in fact he might have more questions and unsurety now…
All Blacks still favourites for the Rugby World Cup 2019, but other teams have moved closer… Springboks, Wallabies (after today), Ireland, England, Wales…
Best All Black players on the pitch today was probably Anton Lienert-Brown, then Ben Smith and thereafter Rieko Ioane…
Some very average performances by the rest.
Compared to the All Blacks, the Wallabies are very near certainty regarding their 1st choice team and replacements for the Rugby World Cup.
Today’s backline should be the starting backline… yes even with Will Genia stuck on the bench as 2nd choice
Today’s forward pack should be the logical starting forwards pack too… and the replacements even seem settled
Just tweaking and fine-tuning to follow…
If the Wallabies prepare and play like they did today, they can put ANY of the top sides away… Ireland, Wales, England, France, Springboks and of course the vulnerable All Blacks.
Japan’s own Rugby World Cup preparations seem to be on track… with them beating the USA.
The August Internationals will give us a bit of an eye on the chances of the 6 Nations sides.
