Re: Australia post-mortem

I'm working myself up over this the more I think of it.

Bottom line is Cheiks gotta go. Love the passion, but I'd be a better coach for the Wobs. :lol: ;)

I was surprised he subbed Toomua so early, but prolly not as surprised as Toomua himself. He was playing well. I forgot to add in my post above is hes a much more reliabke penalty kicker than Foley.

Re: Australia post-mortem

I will add, sheer bulk is over rated imo, at least in the back line. Crazy that not that long ago Wendell Sailor was considered a massive crash ball (and he was) at 103kg. Now days it seems that's the average weight for a back. Non of the Argentine backs weighed more than 90kg according to the comme...

Maybe if some of the forwards cut out some of the niggly shit and focussed on their jobs a bit more it might help. It didn't work against the ABs a couple of years ago, and it didn't work yesterday. All it did was make them look even bigger dicks when they lost the game. Coaching and management pro...

Thanks for the tip EF.

I just did another 5km, although three days doing 5km+ even at this pace is starting to tell. My old sore shin problem came back a bit today. Haven't had that for a very long time. I think I'll give it a good few days off now.

Glad the Pumas won that. Lacey was on their backs all game, and the Wobs behaved like dickheads....head pats and niggle. 3 disallowed tries showed that they cut the Wobs up pretty well. Fully deserved their win. So much for away games and travel making winning impossible. Today puts that excuse to ...

The Wallabies need a new coach. How Cheika got locked in for another year after half a decade of poor to middling results and constant whinging about referees etc. is astonishing. Some kind of old boy rugby politics no doubt.
