Springer got worked in defence there

Crazy Horse

Aussies are looking well drilled

antipodean

NZ wingers getting exposed easily in defence.

KiwiMurph

Looks like they spent all their time practicing the haka

antipodean

WTF was Morrison thinking there? His entire rugby career you've had to get out of that space.

Crazy Horse

The commentator reckons the Aussies are scoreless bacause of our defence. I reckon it's because they have dropped the ball. Sort out their handling and it might not be a pretty watch.

KiwiMurph

Aus kicking game far better too

Do our good young wingers have it a bit easy through the grades.. bit of flat track bully syndrome .. so don't look to work on defense as much as the should.. particularly positional defense

Toddy

Good direct running there. Thought the halfback had fucked it by getting isolated

KiwiMurph

That was nicely done.

Good to see advantage used well

antipodean

Well, that was impressive.

SouthernMann

Apart from the kick. Harry Godfrey has looked a bit lost at the back

He had a good injection in the first attack... but certainly lost after that

SouthernMann

Getting bullied up front isn't not a good look

NZ just not cleaning out quickly or effectively enough.... hard to believe TAB had Aus at $3ish earlier today after watching the 1st 25mins

This Tahlor Cahill cleans bodies at rucks well. Pity his teammates aren't as good.

Its very much individuals rather than 2 and 3 at a time.. .Aus seem to out number us every ruck.

Crazy Horse

The Aussie number 1 has the perfect face for a front rower.

Nasty collision between two Aus players there...
