Wallabies are gonna be battle hardened for the RC ..handing and physicality in these conditions has been superb
Skelton may need to rope it in

The first game in SA will be their big chance

Not sure if Skelton will be available for the RC. Big blow for the Wallabies if he isn't.

Ref’s style suits Wallabies.

Oh and this is very much looking like shit selection finally coming back to bite Andy.

Sheehan very lucky not to be sitting on the sideline

After game 2, you would think they'd be watching out for that

Why? Pretty clear the NH is getting a free ride on this shit.

I say not on Skelton. His physicality is inspiring his team mates, and they're certainly following him.

The blow back from the decision at the end of G2, I thought they might police the breakdown a little tighter

Lions struggling to cope physically with the Aussies in these conditions.
Itoje and Freeman failing their HIA's make it Aus game to lose for me. Even though Freeman has been pretty poor over the 3 tests.

Lol no.

Lynagh being reported as failing HIA.

Sheehan gets away Scott free

Please let us put in an 80 minute performance :palms_up_together_light_skin_tone:

Lol JGP doesn't know the laws

Dived on a man on the ground.

Nic White is a spiky little fella isn't he

Lions starting a fight for no reason.

That's what you get for trying to cannonball tackle

Desperation

@Canes4life said in Wallabies vs Lions III:

That Sheehan clean out on Lynagh should have been looked at. Defs a card.

Talksport commentators unanimously felt it was a RC and he’ll be cited

Lol Curry thinks Beirne can't handle White by himself

Sheehan arguing they weren't being fluffybunnies

Ryan with an awful tackle technique there to get himself injured.

@NTA said in Wallabies vs Lions III:

Yeah, deserved what he got there, trying to drop to target the knee and gets rightly fucked off. Good.

Not able to watch the game. But just caught the score.

C'mon Aussie.

Well, that's something i've not seen in a while

If Skelton can stay on now with the lions having 2 lightweight locks it could be game over.

Play suspended due to lightning strikes. That might help Skelton play longer.

Weather warning

Yeah this is a bit fucked!

@Canes4life was just gonna say same thing
Have’nt seen a game suspended since someone forgot to pay the power bill at the Palmerston North Showgrounds in FPC championship final

Just had thunder overhead at my place.

An Irish player changing his wet boots for dry ones. I've seen it all now.

Think I will just knock it on head. Half an hour and then play? Must admit kind of lucky it a dead rubber.

I'm about 20km NW of the stadium so it's coming this way.

STRAYA!

Cripes! Loving Nic White tonight after hating the little fluffybunny for so long.

It's a nice old fashioned style game, very physical and a bit of biff

Lightning stops play?

Standards are slipping. Wimps

Recently they had a weather-affected game in the USA vs England I believe?

I remember years ago Matt Burke lining up a shot at Loftus for Tahs v Bulls and the thunder and lighting hit just as he got back to his mark.

Funnily enough this happened at the same ground earlier in the year in the NRL between the Dogs and Rabbits. It changed the game that night.

On their phones at halftime, hilarious.

In MY day we didn't start until everyone got struck by lighting at least twice on the way to the ground and once before warmups!
