[QUOTE="Umaga's Witness, post: 953069, member: 65365"] I don’t know exactly what to think of this. Did the all blacks improve? Yes. But how much?the wallabies were not the same team. They couldn’t handle the expectation, just not used to beating the all blacks. But we have kept the cup. Our loose forward trio did better, as expected. Its a shame for me that Ardie has been given the role he has in this team, I prefer when he’s in more of the rucks, but at least his running game was better than anyone’s out there tonight. All three of them played better than last week; while read played his best game in a while last week he still made mistakes, this week not as many. Cane too was nearly error free this week and was very good in the tackle and got a few turnovers. Bridge was good, hopefully good enough to make the squad, to me he is better than Reece. Only one of them will make it. . Come on, you have to enjoy that throw on white who had done a massive Hollywood earlier in the game wasnt by neck, he gripped his shirt. He may have made first contact with neck but he didn’t throw him by neck. Also, if they do it in judo without being injured whats the big deal? You could hardly call it dirty. I have no problem with the card though, because at the end of the day he was an idiot to do it, it wasn’t just reckless, it was intentional. Yeah you could say hooper ducked into batters tackle too come on, you are their last standing fan, stick in there. [/QUOTE]
