But what a win from Argentina !

Massive comeback by the Puma's, and if there's anything that I do like is to see is that gap between all rugby nations is getting smaller. I just hate it when we lose and when I watch the Boks win.

I fear another arse whipping in Paris to give us the reverse clean sweep for the first time, and send us home with our tails between our legs.
Pity, Schmidt promised a lot but we just don’t seem to have the cattle anymore.

It might be even worse champion @Halbrowne61:

Record defeat to Ireland puts Wallabies on brink of worst tour in 67 years​

(The Wallabies are just one defeat away from their first winless tour to Europe in 67 years)

Record defeat puts Wallabies on brink of worst tour in 67 years

Ireland’s Australian hero condemned the country where he was born and raised to a nightmare loss.

That’s true, but we’ll beat France in a close one to retain some level of respect. It’s been another harsh wake‑up call tour for the ARU.
