I've lost track of this - what's happened to Kurtley Beale? Is he injured or just Eddied?
Thought he went back to Oz to get a shot at the WC, and he'd surely be a better bet than this lot.

NZ are expressing the quality now that was started under Hansen back around 2017. It's been a slow corrosion. Foster still uses the same 'play the ball' phrase that belies the arrogance of assumption that dominates the thinking there these days. At least Razor values forward play and team cohesion. It'll come good.Sandstorm wrote: Sun Sep 24, 2023 8:29 pmNZ and Argies are shit this month. Nothing to do with a draw 3 years ago.ScarfaceClaw wrote: Sun Sep 24, 2023 8:27 pmSefrica will win it. NZ are gone in the quarters. Argies probably as well. Let’s hear it for making the draw three years ago.Ymx wrote: Sun Sep 24, 2023 8:25 pm Looks like we have our first big casualty of the tournament.
Blimey the whole RC could all be out before the semis.

Arse reaming now. What's Aus worst defeat at a RWC?
Not sure I agree. I think the worst thing for Australia about this is that Wales are gash as welltc27 wrote: Sun Sep 24, 2023 8:32 pm Think you have to give Wales credit for this performance. Absolutely in control.
Glad we (England) will avoid then in the quarters

Yeah you saw that in the dg, going nowhere against a side that had given up. Wales have fronted up well, executed set moves, and kicked, and that’s been more than enoughSlick wrote: Sun Sep 24, 2023 8:37 pmNot sure I agree.

Either way Wales are nailed on for a semi

Eddie has the look of a man who’s waiting to be called in to see HR about his search history

I almost feel sorry for the whole of Australia as a result of this.
Almost. I wonder where that Deepsouth poster is right now?

Nope. They screwed their whole structure in a manner that makes English rugby look like the epitome of a well run business.
This debacle will simply turn more people away from the game there.

Pretty sure Dave Rennie would've brought a much better prepared and savvy squad to France.Fonz wrote: Sun Sep 24, 2023 8:35 pm Lots of shitting on Jones incoming but…who are all these great players he could have presumably picked instead? Australia used to shit quality players just 10-15 years ago, the talent just doesn’t seem to be there now.

Yeah, this is a major disaster for Rugby Australia. It'll take years to recover, if they can. Massive cleanout needed at executive level.Torquemada 1420 wrote: Sun Sep 24, 2023 8:44 pmNope.
