Another week, another win for the Wallabies – though once again not by a comfortable margin.
This was one of the more unusual Australian sides we have seen line up this year, with a multitude of players rested and many lesser lights getting the chance to shine.

How did they do? We saw a fair bit of the future today and all things considered it didn’t come out to badly, although France gave the side a scare late in the piece. But how did the individual players rate?
And so we’re opening up our DIY Player Ratings to you, Roarers. Have a vote and let us know what you thought of each player’s performance.
If you’ve not done our DIY player ratings before, it’s a simple enough process. Hit up the form below and rate each player from 1 to 10 based on their performance. We’ll keep track of the results and publish our findings on Monday morning.
You’re free to rate players as you like with 1 being the lowest and 10 being the highest, but if you’re look for a bit more detail than that, we leave you in the capable hands of The Roar‘s editor Patrick Effeney who put this guide together last year.
1. Had he not played, the team would have been better off. Negatively affected the performance of the side. May God have mercy on his soul.
2. Anonymous. Was he even there?
3. Did some things that you expect a player to be able to do, but did a whole bunch of other things that sucked.
4. Was passable in patches, but not up to standard in a squad of such depth.
5. Performed his role without anything really noticeable happening.
6. Good.
7. Pretty good, actually.
8. Very good.
9. Excellent.
10. Might as well have been John Eales.
Thanks for voting, and we’ll see you on Monday with the full results.
