At least it's consistent. ABs first try was off a forward pass too.Quote:

And no I did not watch the game
Player deemed best for the Wallabies isn't even trusted to defend in position.
Flyhalf can only kick 20 odd meters to the right hand touch
Captain isn't a Captain's bootlace and doesn't deserve to be auto pick for position
Reserve Lock should have retired three years ago, sometimes catching and always falling over is not an International standard
Starting Hooker is also well past it
Props shouldn't be the first to reach an opposition try scorer after a 40m break
Mark your man!!!
Oh so much more but care factor is low...
Is Cheika finally on thin ice yet?
I know the quotable quote is "Players win matches and coaches lose them", but seriously I don't think very much can be levelled at him on this one. Some, but not much.Quote:

DHP was sorely missed and hopefully is fit next week!
Wasn't going to watch at all. Weakened and watched during half time in the Mungo's. No surprises. Looks like the usual. AB's win the game by before half time. Take the foot off the gas and the Wobblies get a few consolation tries when it's all too late.
"We're taking the positives. Have to remedy the slow starts. Shore up our defense. That's easy to fix.Take a good look in the mirror and work really hard before the next game. Lift the intensity and we can beat them" :S
Cheika blamed the players for not following the defensive pattern exactlyQuote:

Yep, don't dispute that. That would be the "Some but not much". Players still need to at least appear to want to tackle someone that's in front of them though.Quote:

I blame the ref! :sarcastic:
