I swear Nowell has let about 3 balls bounce right in front of him today, though that one looked more a mix up with the forwards.

Stuart’s struggling to keep Bell up. He must be under a bit of pressure.

He’s not the first man to find pressure makes it difficult to keep his bell up.

Oz’s tactic from 5 yards is simply to line up Tongan Thor opposite Smith.

Why do we always give penalties away when the other side need momentum???

Idiotic again. So frustrating. Back to back stupid penalties.

Aus aren’t having the best run with injuries.

The third rugby stream option for the game has been pretty consistent, although for some reason it changed to golf @ one point. It's been fine since with occasional buffer.
Thanks. I’ve got one with Russian commentary - better than nothing !

“Might see some cheese here, Flats”. The Aussies do have a great way with words in the sporting arena.

Is that a real question? We look a bit knackered. Momentum with Aus.

It’s a shame Flatman has deteriorated in to the same rambling, incoherent ‘banter’ we get from so many other pundits. Justin Harrison is horrendous to listen to.
