Well no one gives the aussie a chance this weekend so really they got nothing to hold back from... IMO it will be the AIG that are facing the pressure.


Hometown crowd expecting win

Fat Hansen being found out with key player out presumably

Draw last week and no world record wins in a row - thx to aussies

Link at the helm


All that points to AIG facing the pressure and really what have the aussies got to hold back for - its going to be all out attack...!!!!


yeah baby - PRESSURE KIWIS PRESSURE!!!!

 Will be interesting to see how this one unfolds. Everyone here I talk to expects us to get hammered but I think that comes down to years of defeat. For Aus rugby's sake I hope we put on a show. Last week left everyone a bit flat and interest seems to have dropped off. Despite my misgivings about some of the selections I think we may go alright but in all honesty I have not got a clue what will happen. Everyone is putting the draw down to a poor kiwi performance but the Wallabies had a poor game as well. To me its a new game and we will see what happens. I agree Redsman somewhat about the pressure being all on the ABs but for the immediate future of Rugby here we need to turn up to win. Hooper had alot of people here applauding his decision to have a crack instead of taking penalties and hopefully that was a sign of how we will attack the games this year.

hahahaahahahahaaha cloudy ur a funny thing... 


Everyone on aussie blogs calls them the AIG... I like it its got ring to it... obviously gets under the kiwi skin... so will keep on using it...


Frankly I don't have time to troll other sites under different logins... even now I should be working not typing...


But since you ask - Im going off a feel and a vibe... something objectivity cant dictate...


I had the same feel re the Tahs VICTORY so I'll back it in.


Back end of the game in Sydney AIGs were the ones doing all the defending and credit to them for not letting one through - even though AAC grounding should have gone to video ref...


Pressure definitely on the AIG this weekend...

me too... lol


just got a feeling the worm turned last week... aussies did all the attacking and kiwis didn't seem to have answer other than scramble defence...


Nonu is a massive loss to AIG IMO -

I think the precedent has been set - infringing in the 22 (a favoured AIG tactic) seems to be card material now - Poite will be on same page as Peyper and suspect kiwi cheating tactics will be penalised FINALLY....


Now me and beeno may finally get some justice.... hey beeno

Redsman: the pressure is always on the All Blacks, nothing new there mate. When you are no. 1. you are always trying to improve. 
Wobblies will be wondering if they can ever match their last weeks performance. Can they ever win a game against the ABs. Is this their big chance... do they feel it slipping away again. It must be tough to always be third, lol

 Some justice Reds but not enough. abs would have to get a raw deal in  a hundred games or more before the stats level up!
Very concerned re the RAWs effect this weekend in nz.Now could you down under types please stop squabling  - be at peace with one another ala Beeno the peaceable ! Hahhahahahahaha
