Now, it's been a few days between posts at Chic Rugby.
That's because I didn't watch 3/4 of the game between Australia and the All Blacks.
I was at my hairdresser's.
Needless to say the result was disappointing for the men in green and gold.
And Dan the Man Carter was responsible for a goodly part of the carnage. We love Dan, but not as much when he's playing Australia. See him kicking another penalty goal in the picture above. 21 points to his name.
Ouch.
Where to now for the Wallabies? The World Cup Final, that's where! The boys will need to get it together to overcome the mental challenge of losing two prestigious competitions against the World Cup favourites, in order to regroup and retake the prettiest cup on offer in world rugby. They can do it, they have the potential.
On another note, former Wallabies coach Eddie Jones has scored a job with the Springboks as they too prepare for the World Cup. John O'Neill, the recently reappointed head of Australian Rugby has made the jokey comment that Jones' appointment will actually help the Wallabies as he wasn't that great a coach during his tenure and the Australians lost lots of matches!
Hope he gives them the same match tips he gave the Wallabies. Maybe he could go coach the All Blacks as well?!
