HIGHLIGHTS | AUSTRALIA v NEW ZEALAND | The Rugby Championship 2024

[@AllInTheGame01]

What a game, full credit to AUS for their performance after that hiding from ARG! ABs are still blowing their load early, gotta address their lack of discipline & last 20m issues! Congrats to James Slipper on his record 140th Test Cap - a ridiculous number esp for a front-rower!

[@Skyscraper2015]

Ah yes standard LQ yellow cards.

[@conorcahill5422]

Very admirable and impressive, but they undid all of that hard work and graft by failing to score against 13 men. That's simply unacceptable and was massively costly for them, when they had the total ascendancy, while the ABs were on the literal canvas.

[@sqwss]

Credit for what? The missed tackles on clearly telegraphed plays? The unforced errors? Poor performance and the scoreline flatters - only that close because of the ABs yellow cards. little signs of improvement still

[@daaichommie708]

@@itwasntme8770 I mean to be fair to the AB's. They are going through a transition and rebuild phase. Last time Boks went through a full on rebuild we were klapped 57-0. All Blacks are still a super dangerous team. If they get their discipline issues sorted and set in, they will demolish teams.

I'm a Kiwi but I was pissed off to read comments during the week that the Aussies had no chance. Well I bet the smart shites were crapping themselves big time during the game. You write the Aussies off in anything and there's a good chance they'll shove your words right down your throat and out your you-know-what. Good on them tonight. Some super rugby from both sides and hopefully we'll see more next weekend.

[@Spikeaccount675]

Yeah, being an SA fan, you see the same thing with comments about Argentina. Argentina can legitimately beat us in the upcoming match.

[@martindormer2116]

Yes, we are consistently inconsistent but capable of really good thinks when the wind is in our sails. I was stoked to see them actually fight to get back into a seemingly lost match and come tantalisingly close to a win.

[@Spikeaccount675]

Well. They did beat us.

[@WaferBrik]

@@Spikeaccount675 They were in the fight, though. Plenty of 'experts' reckoned they wouldn't be.

[@marconel]

As a South African it is good to see the Australian team finding some form. Sometimes difficult times approached with humility helps build something better on something surer. The depth of character and cohesion in the squad is rising. So close to defeating the All Blacks with a great comeback. Take this into next week and seal the deal mates.

Wow that was great, from a South African, what a feast of a game. Both All Blacks and Wallabies splendidly rising to the grand old occasion to dish up this spectacular feast for rugger eyes. Entertainment of the highest sort.

[@frankvendetta9230]

Yeah for them it was entertainment but you know, I know and everybody else know Test Rugby is not about entertainment, its about winning no matter how but winning. See the Boks as example. They know how to win with brute force, a real impact bench not wannbees impact players but ones who FKs up the already FKed up opposition forwards.

Kiwi here. I’m really questioning whether Scott Barrett should be captain - not seeing the composure or decision making needed in close situations

[@Hatunrumioc]

[@yeahdefinitely6607]

@@Hatunrumioc yeah I’m just not sure he’s the best in his position. Zero running metres against SA, bombed a kick off last night and threw a poor pass with the try line beckoning. Not sure he’s coping with the responsibilities.

[@ryanfox9901]

So I'm a kiwi right and think it's good that we lost to sa etc so that way the team works harder to be better and keeps games more exciting. But when I see this stuff. First 20 25 mins were amazing then everything turns to crap I question the players with the big salaries that clearly slack off when getting a comfortable lead...... your getting paid.
