Nicely poised for a tough second half.

Good tournament this year, despite the Saffers.

However, its strange to think a team with 2 wins and a draw (today’s winner) has no chance to win the tournament against the team with 2 wins 2 losses.

Micheal Hooper is absolutely braindead. His constant refusal to take the points early in games is just stupid. He’s been doing it for years and it’s cost the Wallabies big time. If it happens again tonight he should be sacked.

Worst Captain ever.

Been 10 for ages but thought it was 12 now?

They also have to keep the player off for all that time now iirc, whereas previously they could return them early.

You are correct:
Another key issue clarified by the Working Group was the necessity for this to be a strict 12 minutes, that is, a player cannot return to play even if cleared before the 12-minute period has expired.

You see it all the time. It's a zero win option. If I'm the oppos, the worst I'm getting is an immediate lineout throw. The best it a turnover pen or some other form of turnover: so the more phases it goes through, the happier I am.

As a supporter, I hate it when Fra dick around with it and love it when the oppos do.

This Pumas backline has the skills to score from 85m. BUT not in the pissing rain. Wont help that their skipper is playing 12 either

That said, a man up, <20 mins left and hosing it down so why TF aren't the Argies keeping the ball pinged down in Aus half? Poor game management.
