Don't blame the Tahs Jim, some of the better players were Tahs boys, remember Beale is a Rebel now! ;)

Seriously though, its time to go Deanes, I was watching a replay of a game from 4 years ago and there's been no improvement whatsoever, he picks players on reputation more than form. The ARU should have moved heaven and earth to get Ewen McKenzie in the job.

yep I agree re Deans, I am off to the game in Auckland next week as I do with a few mates each year, this is 6 years in a row now, and Deans has coached since then, and I dont think we have got any closer to the ABs in that time, especially over there
also Eden Park is a big hoodoo, we havent won there since about 1985, oh well, even though we lose it is a great weekend :D

Well they did when they got a penalty 10 metres out.
But they took the bloody tap! :roll:

just got back from Auckland, it wasnt pretty at all, and the sad thing is the AB fans were giving us sympathy, I think I preferred it when they were laughing and hanging crap on us :roll:

the rest of the weekend was good though :D

I don't think I'll ever go to a Wallabies game again, after seeing them beat the All Blacks in Brisbane last year things couldn't get better. :lol:

First one I've watched in a while.... way too many penalties IMO, not enough 'trying' for tries.

Australia are making some huge errors but still with a chance of stealing a victory with 4 mins to go.

IT'S A DRAW!!

Wallabies found a way to almost lose that by giving away too many penalties and allowed the All Blacks to advance it from one of the field to the other quick as.

so much for the draw against the ABS, a bit of an embarrassment this morning going down 33-6 against the French :shock:

Great win by the Wallabies, managed to stay up and watch it all, was refreshing to watch after having to try and stay awake on a staple of pathetic soccer before it started.
Love Phil Kearns comment that the same person who came up with England's jerseys must have been the same person who chose the singers of the national anthems.

Welsh rugby is right in the poo. The rate they're going, they're going to get a suicide draw in the next World Cup.

It's a real shame as this earlier this year they were just about regarded as the 2nd best side in the world with a relatively young squad.
