All Blacks vs. Wallabies game the other day, who watched it?

Bloody good game, it was heartening to see the Wallbaies show immense pressure and heart from the start whistle to put themselves 12-nil up and even better to see the All Blacks level the score within five minutes.

The Wallabies win was actually really good to see and I'm saying this as a NZ supporter, (obviously,) because James O'Connor's game was one he should never forget. It was Hollywood-esque really, (ignoring the fact that judging by the film Invictus Hollywood doesn't know how Rugby is played.) The dude was fantastic, cool under pressure, incredibly skilled. He performed flawlessly at the highest international level there is. Well deserved of a Green-and-Gold dogpile at the final whistle.

The ABs did really well too, the reason they fell down wan't due to a lask of skill but more poor substitution choices. Stephen Donald, poor bastard, is being blamed for the defeat - he deserve it, I mean I only saw him make one good move - a good tackle - the rest of he time as soon as he got the ball he gave it to the Wallabies and of course he missed the potentially match winning kick - a kick that Dan Carter could probably have headbutted over. No-one really knows why the selectors chose him since there are at least two first fives who have been playing btter than him even at a regional level. Some Aussie papers are calling him "the best Wallabies' player". It shouldn't forgotton that Isaia Toeava's one great contribution the the game was falling on his arse instead of tacking a runaway Wallabies' fast-bastard Kurtley Beale, (which led to a try.)

All in all though a good game and good to see the Wallabies break their record-breaking ten match losing streak against the ABs.

nobody cares.  might want to go to the AU spam thread.

Yeah Rugby is more of a NZ chat thread thing.

i wish i could find some trollicide for you morons

that was a great game. stupid AB kicking the ball away to give the Wallabies another chance. All they had to do was hold on for another 45 seconds THEN kick the ball out. Sheesh.

ty, serious question

doesn't that haka shit make you feel embarrassed? it's hilariously stupid

it is better than some of the ridiculous touch down celebrations of American football or the look-at-me-look-at-me football/soccer celebrations.
personally i like to see how their opponents respond to the challenge. The Welch response was awesome.

you're stupid

and by your reaction i'm guessing it is embarrassing

This is correct.

I have been away for a week. Soo much to catch up on.

Damn, missed this thread. Overall a very disappointing Autumn series for Wales, yes we were missing key players but drawing against Fiji, come on.

If we play like that in Feb/March we'll be competing against Italy for 5th place in the 6 nations.

Saw McCaw got player of the year again, Henry coach and AB's team, thoroughly deserved mind, I thought Harinordoquy had a good year at 8, the southern hem sides are a different class though.

Hopefully Wales pick it up and Shane comes through the 6 Nations with no injury worries ready for the WC!
