How is that any movement? There is no tackle.

Ah, I wasnt aware. 20min red is great.
Aussies bottled it anyway. No points, blew their ome chance with a kick, and now concede a try.

Very happy with our defence so far, especially that Aussie donut.

Big thanks to WA and Mark McGowan for being able to put this on in the middle of a pandemic.
But seriously, 05 September 2021 is the day rugby died.

Agree but look at their play for 20 mins with the extra man.

Still too many missed goalkicks for my liking, and the early injuries and Jordie's red card didn't help.
One fucking huge positive, though... Is this the dawning of the age of Akiraness?

Now we are heading in to the heart of the competition. I’m looking forward to the next 4 weeks of double head to heads.

Our B team did really well, except the goal kicking.
And this has proven a critical mass of Barrett’s starting = red cards.

Thought our all round kicking game was quite accurate - turned them around with good chips and grubbers to blunt their line speed, and kept them stuck deep inside their half for long periods. Making more of our long range counter attacking opportunities helped as well. How many points have we scored off intercepts?

Yeah good point re the intercepts.

Boks will have to up their ball possession stats against AB's. We've been comfortable to play without the ball against less threatening oppo. AB's have too many weapons for that. Their counter attack is superb. Savea, both Ioanes and Jordan will carve us up if our kicking is shit.

Thought the props played well. Bower's really growing into his role. The attrition rate at hooker's a concern, though.
