By supporting their Mate and saying he shouldn’t be sacked they are condoning his actions
No player, let alone the Captain should have said anything other than “We’rre just training hard and thinking about the next match” when questioned by reporters.
McKenzies next move should be to take the Captaincy away from Hooper
No Tahs split in Wallabies, says Hooper
As much as I’d like to hope, I don’t think many of the players in the Wobbly Squad are good enough, or committed enough.
Scott Fardy summed it up nicely after we beat the Boks by saying “That was the most physical and intense match I’ve ever been in”
Well yes Scott, it’s Test Rugby, you are supposed to be that physical and intense in all the tests you play…
And now for something completely different: some rugby!
Great article but totally missed the target with Owens and the Boks v Wobblies match.
Owens was near invisible in that match in comparison to others, how can you say a match with so many 20 + phase runs be over reff’ed ?
Look for a Stuart Berry match next time.
Nigel Owens' refereeing the highlight
You left out restarts.
Haven’t seen the stats but my impression is that the AIB’s regather more of their restarts than any other team.
Only god knows how to defend New Zealand
Team announces, Beale dropped.
Only backs on he bench are White and Horne.
Beale facing ARU integrity probe after Wallabies flight
Bench and tackle count.
In the second half particularly, we needed a fetcher and cleanouts that could effect a turnover.
Multiple 20+ phases by the opposition will kill any side.
Wobbly finishes will cost Wallabies a World Cup
You win the Internet for a day!
Phipps should run the tape and have someone smack him with a stick for every pass that was directed to a runner’s shin, head, or where the runner was .25 of a second ago…
Wobbly finishes will cost Wallabies a World Cup
To be fair, I don’t think you are giving enough credit to just how right in the head a batsman has to be to play quality aggressive pace.
When a guy is bowling at your head/body and you have .3 of a second to both decide how to play it AND then make your shot, anything less than perfect concentration will see you undone and possibly injured.
Few people would know that stress.
Trott: Johnson not responsible for my Ashes departure
Don’t really care about the result now.
This is a 2 v 3 match, happy with the Wobblies effort and play

Howdy Digger, sorry but I was hoping for some of Biltong or Henry’s rage in the commentary, try to channel ok?
I didn’t know Phipps was a 3rd generation Wallaby.
Nature or nurture…

Super Rugby player guilty of axe killings
Guys…you all lament the state of Rugby, how it’s forth code and struggling to get fans, never in the news,, yet when a reporter tries to get it in the news and give it some publicity by talking to a player…….
What’s he supposed to say, “Oh, we’ll get flogged there, we always do…..”
