The rugby

Obviously the wet didn't help, but we didn't even try...

Discipline was a lot better though so I suppose that's another positive.

Australia pretty poor today, Wales brilliant yesterday.

What can go wrong next Saturday?

Its a big ask for Wales to back it up with a win next week. Still score first….

Australia will beat Wales next weekend. I think the incredible emotional high will bite them back.

That was a tough watch this afternoon. Conditions not great but the pitch may as well have been 30m wide for all the width the teams didn't both to try to put on the game.

I think it's currently 18-12 to the northern hemisphere in the overall series.

I can understand international rivalries, but I feel as interested in a contrived NH/SH rivalry as I would an EH/WH one.

Gareth Thomas made 18 tackles in the 26 minutes he was on the field. Jenkins made 38 with the team as a whole making a record 348! They somehow looked like they could have kept making them for as long as needed too. No idea where that level of fitness, desire and discipline suddenly came from.

I suspect you will be right.

I'm going to go out on a limb. The confidence in the Wales dressing room will be sky high while very low in the Australian one.
Yes, I am aware of the wounded lion principle but...
