This is a nice synopsis of what's so wrong with a lot of rugby analysis these days. One guy works his balls off for 80 minutes, up and down the wing as well as coming infield as an extra playmaker. The other guy hangs about on the wing and walks in three tries that were handed to him on a plate by ...

Wales would probably be 40 points down at this point tbf
They'd be 100 down.
1000000 surely

This Italian team has been disappointing I must admit. They'd still prolly beat Wales though so ... shrug.

I don't think it's made much local impact but it's a good event for the NRL. Lots of Aussies come over for it. Was on a flight from Sydney to SF in February and it seemed like half the plane was on their way to the match. Not just fans of the 4 teams playing either. That maybe true, but the way tho...

Disappointing from Italy, I hoped for more.

With the cards, they should have been able to.push this. Boks just too strong and too gritty with a whole stadium behind them.

You’re once again spectacularly wrong. Must take some effort, Obviously you have minimal on field experience. Worse than that happens in every scrum and ruck. No it really doesn’t amongst professionals with large amounts of digital cameras on them That you were a dirty player not really a doubt. I ...

Leading with the head.

Always a red.

It not being really hard blow isn’t the question once there’s a deliberate act.
. I bump my head in my sleep harder.

That explains an awful lot.

Fair.

Okay I just saw the replay. In my opinion that's bullshit. I want Italy to do well but that was less a headbutt and more just getting in someone's face. With a teeny headbutt. Red very harsh imo.

SA will win easily I reckon. But the Italians will show spirit. They've been great recently despite what the paper records say. They've improved out of sight. Problem is, so has everyone else.

I missed the headbutt.

How egregious was it on a scale of 1-10?

Mog The Almighty

Quick lineout went forward a mile.

Mog The Almighty

Flip a coin. That's as close as it gets

Mog The Almighty

Is it just me or the crowd are really pumping Mate, the entire nation is pumping. And has been for years. Whatever SA rugby did in the past couple of decades, the ARU should copy it to a tee. Bok rugby is where it is. Also great to see a strong Italian team also going from strength to strength. The...

Man if you're not envious of where Springbok rugby is right now. It feels like they're doing everything right and the entire nation is 100% invested.

Hansen has been outstanding tonight. The problem though is the standard of opposition here, impossible to read anything into anything we're seeing tonight as the opposition is so disjointed.

Bummed as I feared. The AUNZ treated the game as a piss trip and were duly caned. Not only should the Kiwi players be noted by Razor, he should make a note of banning them from ever becoming All Blacks. Mate the Kiwis - and LSL for a half - were the only ones who looked like they cared. The respons...

He really hasn’t. Sometimes you Irish are deranged. You really must have an agenda if you don't think Hansen was good tonight. Or you don't know anything about rugby, it's one or the other.

Hard to blame Edmed for that I reckon. Soft pass and what was he supposed to do? The other bloke just flat dropped it.

This is embarrassing.. A training run for Lions. I hope Wallabies will be better than this rubbish. The Wobs will be way better. This side is absolutely reeking of having no time at all together.

Sky reporter saying this is the toughest test so far, this lot that's never played together before have been abysmal ffs :lol: Lions would be 50+ up with their A team. Maybe they meant the most bruising. Like I said before, as a team they're playing like a bunch of randoms in a 4th grade club side ...

Take both centres off now. Should start next week. I'd be highly surprised if Aki didn't start but all three will be involved, IMO. Assuming Ringrose out. I thought Aki has been pretty average tbh. I wouldn't want to tackle the guy with even half a head of steam but other than that he's been meh.
