Le retour de Mori dans le XV d’Italie

Because they are a small country and a small media market, their strategy evidently is to provoke and taunt foreign audiences and generate clicks dominated by foreigners (English, South Africans, etc.). Well, now they got the sweet karmic comeuppance for their greed. They look like the arrogant, oblivious, provincial fools they are.

Bookies don’t assess game odds in the childish inane way you described, dude. Anybody could be a bookmaker, if it was that trivial. SMH.

Was a double whammy today to be sure. Made the mistake of thinking the Wallabies were the team to go out against and run the ball, and then you also came up against the Sau'ali'i effect. Could easily have ground out a 2 score victory otherwise. Need to not be trying so hard to win though, the attitude brought in this game should have been backed up with some youth and more time from the bench (it wasn't as bad as ABs bench use where 1 guys wasn't brought on at all mind you).

"Respect is pompous"?! Really? I guess you're what's wrong with the world today...

And "The British did not establish the largest empire in human history through gentlemanly conduct"?! Remember when the british empire killed millions indians? That's the way to go, right?

That's what happens when you pick up the pace but aren't accurate enough, you give the opposition a chance to play with you, and that's what Australia love doing most (speaking as a AB supporter who knows that all too well). Sure, if you play like stooge again on O then that would have stifled your oppositions own attack and made your defence look better (would have been easier for them).

I've only watched once however (first is always for enjoyment) so will have to pay attention to the tackle detail, but I'd heavily suggest the D did all that it was supposed to and more again this week. Maybe Smith could have slowed the game down a bit, I didn't really think it was the smartest thing not to be taking 3 points, but man, I don't think any team is going to be ready to stop Wrights break from his own 22 at the end there.

I think you've just got to appreciate that even the best D in the world can get ripped to shreds, you're not gaurenteed to never not concede more than 30 again, but yeah so you don't have the best defensive coach in the world anymore and might not be as good, you've just got to deal with it as best you can now and have faith in your coach that if this new guy isn't good enough he'll get replaced. No point moaning about it, just accept it like I did that we had Foster.

Don't be, All Blacks supports are the best in the business. Happy to give you the tip, here's' another one, you're going to lose to Argentina next week 😘

Huh... Wait...

But that's 2 away tests I didn't expect us to win, so Razor has earned himself a lot of slack the way this side keeps improving. The positions have all but sorted themselves now, and once the teamwork starts to gel this side could get very good.
