Title suggestions welcome!
All discussion about squad selection etc should go here
Australia bus 20 mins late arriving to the stadium, Joe will be ballistic
Whatever about the quality of the rugby, the MCG is something else.
Not for rugby it isn't. Might as well be watching it from the Pub.
My son is at the match, reckons he needs binoculars. Melbourne just doesn't value rugby (union) unfortunately
Skelton and Veletini make Australia so much better. Oz have gotten over the gain line more in the first 5 minutes than I think they did in the entire first half of last week's game.
Skelton and Valetini already making a huge difference for the Wallabies.
What do you propose they should have done? It’s an oval like.
Not played a test in Melbourne.
Stupid from Curry.
Are you serious? Where else? Those famous union strongholds of Adelaide or Perth?
Can people not just enjoy the bleedin rugby
Australia with a great start compared to the 1st test.
Most things going in their favour.
Skelton with his usual late hits.
Andy Farrell just lamenting that Piardi "doesn't know f***ing rules"
Get in there.
Edit. Or maybe not
Funny that we had that "a restart is not a kick in open play" a week or so after we were discussing it on here
That's a great lineout move, pity Conan couldn't hold it.
Superman!!!
Fantastic try
Can't wait for Twitter to explode over this.
That's jumping into/over the tackle for me.
Its a joke that in 4 countries they cant come up with a better 10 than Finn Russell.
Yeah, I didn't think that was legal either, be interested to hear clarification from those more in the know.
Definitely. You're not diving like that if there's not a tackler there.
Not sure I've ever seen that called in the act of scoring a try. Though I'd be inclined to agree.
The ref explained that you are allowed to jump in the act of scoring a try.
Not gonna pretend I know the rules though.
Lions were caught far too narrow there. Won't keep getting away with that.
There is no specific law against it, it is covered under dangerous play. So it is more convention than anything else that it doesn't count in the act of scoring.
That’s really poor from Jones there, very soft.
6-2 split comes to bite Australia
Potter in the wing is subbed off and a scrum half comes on as replacement.
You're a benchwarmer, Harry.
Except the issue isn't the jump, it's the jumping over a tackler that is.
Valentini and Skelton making some difference.
Skelton absolutely blew through Itoje in that last carry
