I hope I'm wrong but can't help thinking Wales blew the big chance last weekend. Aussies will have less fear today & with a firm surface I fancy the Aussies by about 12 today.

Hope I'm wrong but feel like it's gonna be another Aussie win. Beale coming back in is the most obvious plus for the Aussies, but I think Joubert back as ref is also good for them. We struggled with his interpretation at the breakdown two weeks ago and I expect more of the same.
I hope Warburton has a good game today because he's getting a bit of a hammering for his two latest performances. Not that I think he's played well but he's just back from a long lay off and people tend to forget. |

Watched Australia disappoint so many times when there's nothing to play for. Probably will win but Wales should be able to keep this close.

I had to play at aussie -3 (for what i was allowed). if i was laying i would be thinking double (which may well mean i should never be a layer)

Overs for me.

Perfect conditions for some running rugby

that pen was harsh - looked like the ball was channelled back.

unforgivable restart priestland

almost as unforgivable from the oz pack

By:
pen count v one-sided
|
|
By:
this ref dont like us at all
|
|
By:
high tackle ref ffs
|
|
By:
most one-sided ref I've come across for a long time
|
|
By:
Only watching for last 10 but Wales not getting much from Joubert so far.. few high tackles missed. Looked like blatant kill there also. No doubt host broadcaster wont show again
|
|
By:
fair play wales, having a right go, looking very dangerous.
|
|
By:
Wales looking far better than Australia
It's only the ref who has kept Australia in the game. |

|
By:

|
|
By:

C'MON WALES !

By:
wales do seem to have a commendable **** you attitude
|
|
By:
Cant wait for the NZ game...remember TRYS!!!
|
|
By:
It will be interesting to see the recording for all these pens.
|
|
By:
I would have layed for there to be No Trys in that first half.Hasn't done my Overs bet any favours
|
|
By:
HT
12-9 rubbish DG attempt I thought the Aussies were blatantly offside at the ruck though. |
|
By:
Inbetween this PEN **** there is some high intensity rugby.....something needs to be done..or it will turn in to football!!
|
|
By:
just rewatched the last pen against Phillips
never a pen could have been one against Australia for a high hit on Phillips at the maul .... arm to face. I thought Phillips was part of the maul and had every right to be there. |

odds on the draw have come down to 20

consoling pat on the arm from North to Beale after his knock-on

By:
Australia allowed tomlie on the wrong side of the ruck w/o trying to move away.
INCREDIBLE ! |
|
By:
Do Australis have special dispensation to lie on the wrong side of the ruck every breakdown?

i'm so frustrated by wales
