Wallabies v South Africa Sat 17/8/24

[SNOB]

Can’t remember uncontested scrums in an international for years. Thought Donaldson should have been bought on much earlier. Disappointed with our discipline again. Enjoyed the 5 second rule but not the score line.

Was it Lolesio who kept trying those awful cross field kicks? I'd say he failed his NRL audition.

Yes...

And wasn't it rewarding taking those 5 shots on goal!?
In what world are the 2024 Wallabies going to kick their way to victory over the 2024 Springboks???
F*ck me, how about we battle to halfway, take the three and then head back to defending Gaza (aka our tryline) for another beating...
"Take the points" and "accumulate" applies amongst equals, not Premier v Colts.
Lolesio left on too long, no chance to observe any point of difference for Donaldson or benefit from pairing with White.
No cohesion between Lolesio and McDermott.
Kellaway would/should have been hooked if not for Paisami injury.
Somebody needs to scrape up a lot money to keep Koroibete in Australia. Some of it maybe to Robbie Deans...
There were positives though and a better performance than last week in pretty trying conditions, if forgiving/forgetting the wheels falling of in the last 10.
With due respect to Wales and Georgia, Brisbane felt like our first match of the year and Perth our second...

So long as no lasting injuries tonight, maybe a couple back and no more deaths in the family (ie leftfield), then I'm tipping at least one win in Argentina.
Was good seeing Dr Robertson back in a Perth Changeroom having warmed up with the match day Squad.
