    Getting hammered here.
    Good try by the Aussies.

    Not going to plan.

    Too many penalties and too many missed tackles.

    Not helped by the ref.
    They give away 4 pens in their 22 in one phase. Nothing.
    We gave away 3 and get a yellow.
    They also had 3 early pens that were all borderline, but gave them the momentum.

    I'm turning into Hung.

    Crazy half. We looked all out of sorts, but then suddenly came to life in the last 10 minutes. Game on. Think they will all need this breather at half time.

    The length of time that the ‘advantage’ was being played then was totally ridiculous.

    Again TBF the referee is bad both ways.

    we had that penalty advantage on our 22 and lose the ball just inside the Australian half but that’s deemed a not sufficient advantage??

    Would you rather watch a bunch of men grappling and hugging or a group of women grappling and….

    Forget it, daft question.
