The Greatest Test started with the ABs jumping out to a 24 - 0 lead then the Wobblies came back to level it at halftime.

Are we going to see something similar today?

It is sad to say after all the great backs the aussies had over the years but the players just dont have the skill to play as Schmidt wants.

Yeah. That was fine for a pen but not a knock on.
And he just did it again.

Kicking the ball usually indicates the end of a free kick advantage but not today

Thinking of running an office pool on this one, which one gets the yellow first and how many minutes into the game :thumbup: TJ needs to shut the fuck up and let White off side the Ref.
White wins the "STFU" from the ref award.

And once again we come back for a knock on after five phases of play. This is getting unwatchable, how long is he going to play knock on advantage.

And now we are spending five minutes reviewing a try, and we wonder why the stadium isn't full. Fuck it off to have a few beers with my next door neighbour and discuss the League. Bad call by the match officials there.

Enjoy the game folks.

Just some gentle bants with GS, he started it and I took the bait. Sorry.

Jordie limping off ain't good, he was massive in the first 40.

Very impressed with Sititi too.

Let's see if the ABs have finally learned how to score some points in the last 20 minutes...

Sititi and Cane both getting through a mountain of work. Cane passing off the back of rucks is a thing to behold.

Still some defensive errors and some handling issues, Taylor must have muffed it up 3-4 times alone. If Jordie is crocked then I think it’s time…

Hard to resist when it's so cheap and easy. I shall try to rise above it in the second half.
