Oz need to concentrate on improving their offensive tackles. Wee abs always make meters in contact. Need a Du Toit or two.

The difference a really good 12 made to the NZ backline was noticeable. ALB was almost flawless in executing the correct options. Passed when he should, took contact when he should, hit the half gap at pace. Was he injured or why has Jordie been starting ahead of him?

Oz was competitive but made it difficult for themselves with the lapses in concentration. ALB is a class player and he played well… with this performance you might see him more in the 12 jersey. Congrats AB and tough luck Oz

I thought the game was closer than the scoreline suggests. Wallabies put up a good fight but the big difference was the quality of the outside backs . The finishing power of Jordan, Clarke and Reece made the difference.

Yes, and they were fed plenty of nice counter attack possession. If Aus were more conservative in their own 22 and just cleared for touch instead of those speculative little dabs over the top they might have kept the scoreline closer. And they do need an x-factor player or two. Guys like Wright and Ikitau had their moments, but they need more punch.

Wallace Sititi is really good the way he breaks tackles and find the necessary space to offload, is what you want in a flanker. Tamaiti wiallams also performing well again. Man those sharp shooter passes from ALB , 2 x Passes = 10 points.

ALB  failed againt the  Springboks - now he is the star according to the normal hysterics.

The AB's deservd the win - but te victor margin should nt have been as big as it happened to be. .

Yes ALB has always been top notch, Hard to understand why he hasn’t been selected.
