what a game! good old days of rugby. 80 minutes of continous play, wich we don' t see these days. Modern rugby is about penalty kicks and red cards... Those players were back then a different breed. Miss that time.

[@scottyRAZERrobz]

Lote Tuqiri, one hell of a player; created nightmares for Kiwis for many years.

I’ve only just reached the 10th minute and Australia’s 1st try, but I just wish that Australia would have a resurgence of how powerful a team they used to be. They were brilliant and an absolute joy to watch!

[@chrishodgson2247]

Great to watch an actual Australian side. Not whatever we have these days. Born & Bread 100% is how it's meant to be!!

[@timbanwell1756]
