Rubgy: Australia v Scotland

Post by salacious »

All that I have to say is that referee was awful. I fully expected to get slaughtered on the field but Australia really didn't need a 16th man. They could of beat Scotland with 14. Actually they should of only been 14 since one of them should of been yellow carded.

Unless Australia improve greatly I think New Zealand will win in the semi. France v England, France definately look the form side. It should be an exciting final.

Nah, you should've expected a closer game. Lost Giffen the last minute before the game and there goes the lineout presence. Australia's form has been ridiculous since Eales left. The only time they played running Rugby was against Namibia in the tournament.

Wallabies are playing crap and they do just enough to win. Wouldn't be surprised if they get whalloped by the Kiwis but then again, I wouldn't be surprise if they won either. They're too unpredictable. They're playing at Telstra stadium so anything can happen.

That's how they should be playing if only the ball stuck to their hands.

Congratulations to the Wallabies. I was a bit surprised by the result.

Just hoping for the correct result in tomorrows other semi. I also hope it isn't a kicking competition.

Great game. Excellent defense by the Wallabies.

Tipped France in the tipping comp at work so hopefully they get up. They should get up on form, but then we just saw anything can happen on the night.

Next Saturday should be a cracker regardless!
