Good piece in the Grauniad. One of the Italian squad is the grandson of a man who travelled 75 miles through the snow to watch the last Italy v Australia match in Treviso in 1960. https://www.the

This Australian team, like pretty much every Australian team of the last 50 years, execute superbly.

But where they are not the same as the Kangaroos of the past is their physical presence.  I really do think they can be dominated by New Zealand who will not allow them to create a platform for Tedesco or Mitchell to perform. 

That semi final will be fascinating.

Superb commentary from Robbie Hunter-Paul on the Italy try.

"They were never going to go round them and they were never going to go through them, so..."

And then stopped cause he didn't know what to say next cause they had actually gone through them.

How was that a penalty?  Why do English refs constantly feed tge Auusies decisions, its so weird.

Another 6 again. He’s absolutely thumped them on penalties this evening. Martin literally tackled someone back to the floor just before the ‘Mitchell pass try’ when the Italian was trying to get up to play the ball. Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Even the refs are in awe of this lot… so frustrating.
