The Wallabies have dropped their main weapon Joseph Suaali to the bench. Could be a mistake as they've looked very ordinary without him . . . and Wales have a weapon of their own on the bench, a reserve lock with the first name "Christ".


Come on Wales!

Great offload by Tom Wright and it comes to Kerevi who crosses but can't ground it. No try.

Nov 17, 2024, 17:26

Adam Beard injured and Christ is on . . . Jesus wept . . . and Tom Wright is over. For me the best Wallaby player. 5-0 to the Wallabies . . . it stays 5-0 as Lolesio misses the conversion. 

Nov 17, 2024, 17:29

Nick Frost shows great pace for a lock and scores. Wales look hopeless sadly.

12-0 as Lolesio gets an easy kick over by the skin of his teeth.

Nov 17, 2024, 17:31

If the Bok B team doesn't put 60 or more over this weak Welsh team we should worry.

Nov 17, 2024, 17:32

Christ Tshiunza…what is so special about him? And quite a unique name…

Nov 17, 2024, 17:33

Nick Mallett made a good point last night when he said Wales are the team that hung on to their older players for longer than anyone else and they're paying the price. A bunch of bewildered looking youngsters.

Nov 17, 2024, 17:35

Not even Christ can save Wales as Faessler scores. 19-0 after 22 minutes. Looking ominous. Surely time to dump Gatland.

Nov 17, 2024, 17:37

"Christ Tshiunza…what is so special about him?"


Nothing at all special about him from what little I've seen . . . it's just his name I was referring to . . . and Wales are over for a much-needed try. Aaron Wainwright the scorer. 19-7.

Nov 17, 2024, 17:44

Penalty Wales and Anscombe converts. 19-10.

Nov 17, 2024, 17:47

Another penalty to Wales and Anscombe lines it up . . . it's over! Incredibly it's 19-13.

Nov 17, 2024, 17:51

After shipping three early tries Wales seem to have turned a corner here. Playing much better!

Uh-oh . . . I may have spoken too soon. TMO reviewing a dangerous tackle by prop Gareth Thomas . . . no, no foul play. Still a penalty to the Wallabies but it's out of range.

Nov 17, 2024, 17:52

Correction, it's a Welsh scrum but the Wallabies clear it.

Nov 17, 2024, 17:56

Half time and Wales are hanging on at 19-13. Not something you would have guessed after 24 minutes.

Nov 17, 2024, 17:56

I guess we're a bit spoiled with the spectacle of late last night because this game looks like it's taking place in slow motion.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:12

Commentator mentioning that Wales haven't lost every test match in a calendar year since 1937. An indication of how poor they've been . . . but let's not talk too soon. Come on Wales! Cymru am Byth!

Nov 17, 2024, 18:14

Kerevi could be in trouble here for a no arm tackle . . . yes, he's off. Come on Wales!

Nov 17, 2024, 18:15

That's really stupid by Kerevi. Can't go in like that in this day and age.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:18

Wales have a great attacking opportunity but Llewellyn pinged for holding on. Penalty Wallabies. Lolesio kicks for the corner.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:21

Another penalty to the Wallabies but TMO getting called in for a dangerous tackle by Welsh scrumhalf Ellis Bevan. No, just a penalty. Wales remain with 15 men.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:23

Tate McDermott on for Nic White and Matt Faessler scores a try off a good maul. 24-13 . . . make that 26-13 as Lolesio converts.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:24

Kerevi's yellow is upgraded to a red. Wallabies have another 13 minutes with 14 men.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:28

Faessler scores his 3rd after a strong maul. Wallabies don't seem to be missing the man. 33-13 as the conversion is good.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:31

Wales nearly over but Anscombe tackled into touch.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:34

Brilliant hands from James Botham and he scores. His grandfather Ian would have been proud of that . . . but they're checking for a forward pass.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:34

Forward pass. No try.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:40

Oh dear . . . Wales on the attack but Tom Wright intercepts and scores. 38-13 and that's probably game over. Lolesio makes it 40-13 with the conversion.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:43

Red card is up and Suaalii makes his entrance.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:49

Penalty Wales and Team warning to the Wallabies . . . Ben Thomas scores to add some respectabilty to the scoreline. 40-20 as the conversion is good.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:49

Shame man I wonder why Wales is in such a slump? Gatland is actually a class coach…

Maybe the Competition with the Boks next WEEKEND will bring the best out of them.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:54

"Shame man I wonder why Wales is in such a slump?"


They stuck with their experienced players for too long and now it's only youngsters with little experience. Gatland was good coach once upon a time. He seems bereft of ambition or ideas these days.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:55

Ikkitau scores to add salt to the wounds. 45-20.

Conversion is good. 47-20. Welsh specatators are queuing up to get out of the stadium.

Nov 17, 2024, 18:58

The poor Welsh

Nov 17, 2024, 19:03

Tom Wright named MotM and he caps it with another try at the death. 52-20. Apart from a strong 2nd quarter the Welsh have been nothing short of pathetic. Bok B team will demolish them next weekend.

Game over. 52-20 the final score.

Nov 17, 2024, 19:07

Nice words from Tom Wright. I'm a fan.

Nov 17, 2024, 20:04

This has been the best tour for the Wallabies in ages. They certainly look like a team on the up. They might need some more tight forwards, but the backs look especially good.

Nov 17, 2024, 20:21

I just hope Wales are still in a slump come Six Nations ! We could do with all the help we can get….
