Don’t blame the rules, blame the players
December 9 2009
It’s tragic that most people must attack the game of rugby as being boring, error-riddled and repetitive due to long kicking contests and drop-goal kick-offs.

Haha, it was completely unexpected pothale. It wasn’t set defence at all. I think that’s what makes it amusing and it did prove to be the difference between those two sides that day (Ireland won 17-12). I’m bad at detecting sarcasm
In all honesty I think very highly of O’Gara but believe the Irish backs might get better ball with a more expansive fly-half. They really do have one of the most underrated backlines in the world.
Thanks for all the comments again guys. I always enjoy a bit of intelligent rugby banter.

Hmmm… This is a morale-boosting win, but I believe this is a match they couldn’t afford to lose.
It would’ve created similar or more humiliation than the Australia A loss to the Ospreys in 2006 (24-16 at Liberty Stadium).
The Blues outfit had a pretty decent line-up though facing the likes of Toomua, Chapman, Mumm and co.
The win most certainly should bring in more players to the International fore, hopefullly we can see more of Dean Mumm, Luke Morahan and James O’Connor. It’s time to freshen the Wallabies up!

I never said Australia aren’t poor and regardless, can you really say that England’s last two performances were really appealing to watch?
