You could look at it like that but you could also say “What went right with the Boks?” #WLR

Haha, totally. The Boks were far more dominant throughout the game. I think even a more spirited Wallaby performance wouldn’t have even touched the Boks, but that said, the Wallabies do seem to be lacking a game plan.

Ya, i think that they thought a new coach would bring change straight away. I think they need to stop looking at individual performances and look at the team as a whole, some players aren’t a great fit for the team, and the off the ball discipline is lacking! That “jump” that Cooper made into Habana was uncalled for, he was lucky that the move resulted in a De Villers try.
