Was hoping for a much closer game but the Ozzie defending has been pretty terrible.

Their big issue last year was their passive defense where they would just drift with the attack and give the opposition 30, 40 meters for free. They looked to have it sorted this year but that last try was just back to that same folly again.

Ah well, this turned into a big old disappointment. The French are good though, no mistake.

Aus needs to find some wings. They can get the ball wide, but to what? Jorgenson and Pietsch are both carthorses.
