[QUOTE="Gay-Guy, post: 227483"] The game was in injury time and the Wallabies didn't kick it out!?!?!?!? The AB's get the ball back from the kick that didn't go out and work their way up and eventually score a try. Wouldn't it had been better to kick the ball out and therefore have the chance of the hooter going? Or at least chew up more time? Or even at least be able to have a structured defence from a lineout rather than an open play defensive line chasing a kick? This reminds me of what the Wallabies did 3 years later at the same field and in the same spot. RWC final extra time....ball gets passed to Rogers to kick....VERY BAD kick which doesn't even make the halfway line. England lineout...a few rucks...Johnny drop kick. Some teams need to learn from their mistakes. Aussies should have thought deja vue 2000 on that fateful RWC final night. Same spot, same ground, same bad clearance.....same result. [/QUOTE]
