Does it even matter who has which number on their back? Awesome looking partnership in midfield.

We played like a different team, a lot of flair and confidence in what we were doing where no one gave us a chance, thanks for the gear up Ben… to make you feel better you can view this as a moral victory

Jeremy Williams was 100% in touch

Kicking off 1:10am AEST, 12:10am AEDT (Check my times please!)

I think I saw the score was 10-10, but would have been great to actually be able to see the game. See how the boys went.

Especially, wondering how Hamish went at flyhalf, because I really think he could be Joe's answer at 10 for the Wallabies.

He's a hard running 10, great kicking game, can playmake (although not very dynamic), and defends like a 7! If you wanted a flyhalf to play Joe's way, then you couldn't get much more closely aligned that what Hamish brings to the table.

Also kinda poor that they haven't/couldn't broadcast it, even the Reds in Japan got a stream out.

Am a kiwi who just moved over to Melbourne. Know this is afl territory but I really miss watching rugby live so timed it pretty bad with the rebels collapse. Will any super rugby or international tests be played in Melbourne next year / are there any prospects of a new Melbourne super rugby team at some point?

Does anyone know if it's possible to get the home commentaries for the spring internationals on stan? Because I really don't care what Jeff Wilson thinks, I have to hear his gibberish most the year. I'd like a different point of view. Same goes for the wobbalies tonight and Tim horan.

Was reading an old interview, from the eve of Eddie Jones's resignation as coach.

Excerpt:

Fitz: One of my other criticisms is that you’ve been given too much control, with no selectors, and picking your own assistant coaches etc. Going forward, would you be prepared to cede any of that control?

EJ: No, no, no, not at all. That’s what I’m paid to do. But in terms of selections, I have been consulting the most intellectual rugby person in Australia to support my selection or contest them. I can’t tell you his name because I’d be breaking his confidence. You’ve played with him. He’s the brightest rugby brain in Australia. I’ve had more meetings with him than with a nominated selector, and they’re the people you want helping you, so I don’t buy into that at all.

Fitz: Would this person be inclined to wear Randwick’s myrtle green for his jim-jams?

EJ: He possibly could.

Are they talking about Michael Cheika? If not, who could it be?

Surely RA/ticketek are taking the piss with these prices? And we wonder why Rugby in Australia is dying

It’s been a long time between RWC victories for the Wallabies. I’m hoping we can get a few wins on board for the upcoming November tests!

I messaged stan with no reply but it isnt on their list of games for this weekend, havent seen any other information of it being played anywhere either?

Arise now, arise, Watchers of Wallabies! Dire deeds awake: dark is it northward. Let alarms be set, TVs be muted! Forth Aussies!

Arise, arise, Watches of Wallabies! Fell deeds awake: fire and slaughter! Remote shall be shaken, drinks be thrown, a rugby-day, a gold day, ere the sun rises! Watch now, watch now! Watch to Europe!

Above is a rallying cry spoken by Les Kiss to the Watchers of Wallabies, proceeding the Wallabies charge into the Battle at Twickenham fields.

The bigger question, where would all the Aussie SR teams sit in relation to the various National Teams?

A place to spin some yarns tell us what your wife reckons. Does not have to be rugby related. Remember to play the ball, not the man.
