10-15 seconds after saying "what the feck was that?", the Wallabies score a great breakout try.

Yeah, hoping Schmidt can make you guys good again. Always good for rugby to have a strong wallaby team in the mix
God, remember when you used to fear playing the Aussies?
“Those bastards always find a way to win”.
Think I was about 15 the last time I said that

They were feared during the days of Larkham/Gregan (& before then) & the all conquering Brumbies. Now they’re more likely to lose to the likes of Fiji/Samoa then beat one of the top 4. No offence @Xaviesta
Been a consistent decline since then.
I thought @TheReligion was a big rugby fan? Not a peep out of him during this England test series. Hope he’s ok?
Can I do a Stuart Broad and claim last year's World Cup was void?
Bloody hell. What an awful attempt at a penalty from wales
Ian Chappell would love that Ian Botham's grandson got smashed into touch.
Maul defence hasn't improved unfortunately. Laurie Fisher and Mike Cron have some work to do with Georgia the opponents next week and then the Springboks in early August.
Another maul try from Wales. We've got to stop playing in our own half!
We're going to lose this. I can feel and fear it.
Yeah it’s become much tighter than it should be. You need to convert this territory into points now….as I type that, try!
That welsh player
Idiot just gave the game away.

Good game for the neutral this.
Boom...... what the hell?
Try!
Boom...... what the hell?
Try!
And the Welsh strike back almost straight away!
Another one
Weak from Australia in the defensive tackle

Thank feck that's over!!! Another step forward results wise but maul defence is q huge issue! Could do with playing less rugby in our own half.
Considering you had Eddie I’d actually let you if I could
Joe when asked if he's happy: "I'm more relived, we're going to have to be much better than that". Accurate comments there from the coach.
The atmosphere at Kings Park doesn't seem as electric as it was at Loftus last week.
No surprise that the fist kick off went to Kwagga Smith
Both Bok locks have spilt blood and plenty of it in the first 10 minutes.
What a try! Exact same routine as Murray’s try in the last match. Great hands by Osborne.
Ireland have started much better than at Loftus and are worthy of their 10 point lead.
Willie Le Roux failing his HIA is massive because he makes the Boks attack look less clunky with Pollard playing #10.
Crazy seeing the Springboks under the cosh like this. Although Ireland need more points on the board.
Furlong looks injured, it looks like we are waiting till half time to replace him
Thought Malherbe had the first knee down at that scrum.
Ireland have been excellent. The Boks off colour and clunky.
Jesus this is a war. Happy with the scoreline though. Ireland better all over the park but getting monstered in the scrum. Not looking forward to the bomb squad coming on.
I hope we don't line to regret not getting a try at the end there. Thankfully we came away with three but a very good half. Expecting a serious backlash second half which we'll have to weather.
So after looking like they genuinely want to expand their game, the Boks look like they're reverting to type.
Shite. Error after error from Ireland so far this half
Ref cocked up gives SA the lead
That's an outrageous decision. An Irish player never touched it
Looked like a knock back by Etzebeth. Great kick and chase by Grant Williams though
You can’t play rugby against refereeing like this.
What’s happened since half time isn’t sport.

So many penalties.
Scrum is a big issue
Scrum is a big issue
It 100% was a knock back and the little bollox immediately started screaming for a knock on.
