The Wobs were pathetic. The forwards are a combination of powder puffs and custard creams. They lost every collision, not a single forward ball carrier bent the line. Folau Faingaa, dropped the ball 3 times, missed the tackle on Pollard which scored the try and lost two lineout throws in the 1st 20...

The biggest problem was the ruck. Just lapse of concentration, poor technique. I thought Beale showed enough at 10 to persist with him. Maybe we should've taken the 3 points in those penalties. Beale has been awful at 10... he either needs to go back to 12 or be dropped... The Wallabies lineout has...

When Collingwood started to kill time in their own half when there was still 5 mins to go.... I thought they were screwed.

They'd spent the entire quarter struggling to get out of their half, and that was just the last thing they should be doing with only a 2 point lead.

As one of the letters posted on SMH stated: "On the board of NBN, Also on the board of Netcomm who supply the NBN" How the hell is that allowed?!

Just put in a donkey vote if it was between the Greens, Dutton or the devil. Stupid idea. You could end up with a PHON member or worse, do that and you lose all rights to comment or complain about the government as you have abrogated your responsibility. That sort of petulance gave the US Donald Tr...
