Tri nations 2008 results

  • September 4th, 2008

Next week’s winner takes all game between Australia and The New Zealand All Blacks in Brisbane could not come sooner for Australian players and fans alike after taking one hell of a hiding against South Africa this weekend in Johannesburg which is their biggest defeat in there Rugby Union history. The Wallabies were also demolished 39-10 by the All Blacks in Auckland at the beginning of August, only to recover and beat the Springboks last weekend at Durban before the embarrassment of this beating this weekend.

The game itself started brightly for the Wallabies who had not won in Johannesburg for forty five years but it did not take long until the Springboks took control with a combination of great attacking rugby and brilliant line out play from the big boys in the South African line up with chief tormentor Jongi Nokwe in only his third cap scoring a sensational four tries (three of which were before half time when the game was just about ended as a contest with the home side leading 27-3) which will surely make the Rugby world sit up and take notice of the Wingers talents.

So with less than two weeks to go until the big one in Brisbane all I can say is I hope for the Australians sake that they turn up with a lot better performance than what they showed in South Africa or they will take a beating off the All Blacks in their own backyard and hand the Tri nations title to New Zealand which will not go down well with the home fans and could see the Australian coaches job up in the air.
