Gee, pretty poor result.  The Wallabies OK but lapsed into their old ways.  Got to hand it to those Kiwis.  Mighty effort.  Let's hope the next two games go the Aussies way  ;D

Well I must admit, I thought the game was being played in New Zealand. I switched on part way through the second half and saw that NZ was playing all over the Wallabies, but going buy the crowd I just thought it was in NZ and then this morning I read that the game was in Sydney.  ???    How many New Zealanders live here, or do they all come over just for these games?  I always go for the Wallabies, but I do respect the All Blacks, but they should play better as that is their national sport.  I may be wrong, but union just does not get the same following here.  ::)    Kevin

You should go to an All Blacks Wallabies game at the MCG, talk about neutral turf!  Crowd is an easy 50/50 split.

Should be a wake up call.
Title: Re: Go the Wallabies
Post by: scblack on October 19, 2015, 07:46:46 AM
Needs to be a wake up call. Several terrible mistakes led to Scotland's tries, too many handling errors and JUST scraping through a quarter final.

Hopefully it does the shot in the arm and they now settle down.

But the way NZ are playing I don't like our chances of a final win.

I know im biased but theyll have to play better than that if they want to win the final,especialy if its against the AB's
Good to see a much improved side from recent times though

I'd agree. But I'm hoping that there will be some attrition as they have to get through RSA first.

Argentina will be a tough game, they have great forwards and scrum - especially if scott sio is out.

Argintinas been on fire this year.
Theyve beaten south africa and australia and held the all blacks to a tryless draw for most of a game.
I recon they will make the final

I dunno, the way I think it is this:
Argentina have beaten Ireland - very very unexpected and I reckon that's their grand final done.

Wallabies have been shown up by Scotland and given a wake up call. Great timing before the semi and Final.

I reckon Wallabies should beat Argentina and make the final.



But will we beat AllBlacks in the final? I am staunch aussie but I don't see it happening.
Title: Re: Go the Wallabies

I'm on a ship with a lot of very unhappy Scotsman.
Thank Gawd for the Yarpie on board as he is coping the flac from the Very unhappy Scots, not me.

It was funny to see a heap of Pommes going for Aussie to, they jumped on our band wagon for the sake of the Scots all supporting who ever play England at each event.

My guess, We have no chance of making the final, Argentina v Kiwis. Be good to see the kiwis lose to.

Ritchie McCaw, David Pocock and Schalk Burger are standing before God at the throne of Heaven. God looks at them and says, "Before granting you a place at my side, I must first ask you what you believe in."
 Addressing Pocock first he asks, "What do you believe?" Pocock looks God in the eye and states passionately, "I believe Rugby to be the food of life. Nothing else brings such unbridled joy to so many people. I have devoted my life to bring such joy to everyone."
 God offers Pocock the seat to his right.
 He then turns to Schalk Burger, "And you, Schalk, what do you believe?" Schalk stands tall and proud. "I believe courage, honour and passion are the fundamentals to life and I've spent my whole playing career providing a living embodiment of these traits."
 God, moved by the passion of the speech offers Schalk the seat to his left.
 Finally, he turns to Richie McCaw. "And you, Ritchie, what do you believe?"
 "I believe..." says Ritchie "... that you're sitting in my seat."

We will see

Never say never in the RWC .
On paper the All Blacks are more than 100 points ahead of 2nd place for total points scored since its inception.
Weve only lost 1 game pre quater finals ever and weve made every final bar 2 i think.
The lead try scorer was an all black and his record still stands ,most total individual points scored by a player in RWC history was only just taken off lomu this year.
So youd say wed win hands down but upsets happen and if they didnt i wouldnt bother watching it.
I will say that i dont think the boks are good enough to beat the ABs and i recon aussie will struggle against the Pumas,having said that injuries play a big part this deep into compitition,my call was for wales to make the final and they would have easily if it wasnt for injuries.
They were by far the stand out team in pool A

I think you might be borrowing Peters spoon here  ;D ;D

Some fact checking needed here I think.
1. Wales finished where in pool A?
2. In seven RWC NZ have made three finals and won two. Same number as Australia.
3. New Zealand have never made the finals when it was hosted  in the northern hemisphere. Australia have won two.
4. Loma was the leading try scorer and Grant Fox the leading points scorer for a tournament (although that may be just the way you wrote it).

Im watching the replay of last nights game and cant remember the kiwi comentators name but i think its Colin Montgomery, i dont know the south african blokes name but it was a great impartial comentry by both.
So much so the kiwi was getting excited that south africa nailed thier penalty and was singing thier paises and arguing against decisions that favoured the all blacks.
Not trying to start a Shitfight and im sure plenty would agree with me some of the local comentators are appalingly biased,realy ruins the experience

It looked pretty innocent to me and if they dont let that slide what about the scotish decision.
I believe if the games done and dusted unless its a major deliberate offence theres no point going back there.
If ritchie gets banned from his last game as an all black its totaly unfair for an incident luke that

I agree. I don't think he has a case to answer but they are citing crazy this year. I think unless it was clearly foul play and deliberate it ends after the game ends.
