New name for Wallabies

Post by normanski »

After events last week down under should the Aussies now be known as 'the buggers!

Just read an article in the Fail where Shaun Edwards suggests that Wale's performances in New Zealand should be judged against the destruction of the Wallabies by the All Blacks.

Partly fair point, but not entirely convincing.

Shaun Edwards lol

This ABs team is far more prepared than the one that faced Wales, obviously.

I'm certainly taking the view with my English colleagues that it puts into perspective the English whitewash of the Crims

As always I'd take the middle line that Wales were missing some key players against New Zealand, who were in the process of rebuilding (although NZ had done the sensible thing and started that rebuilding years ago!) so Wales should be pleased with the performances. This has now been proven right.

Like most of the EMB we knew that Aus were struggling and so happy with any whitewash in the SH but realising that it didn't make us world beaters!
