Penalty Baabaas3-3
If the Baabaa’s can get their act together, they should slaughter the shackle draggers, they’re looking decidedly normal (the Aussies, that is)
Mortlock tackless the smoke out of fellow Australian Robbie Freun
Crowd aren’t happy with that drop
Drop goal O’Conner
AUS 6-3
Baabaa’s looking better, good run, and some great offloading
TRY AUS
And that is why Cipriani should never play rugby for England
Barbarians 3 / Wallabies 13 (25 min)
Habana, Habana, Habana…. I don’t know
Habana almost made a great try
Another yellow, Aussies playing poorly at the moment
Yellow to Slipper, Baabaas going for the lineout
Baabaas not taking their chances
Baabaas wasting all their chances, no continuity. Lots of handling errors.
GBS can be thankful he chose to miss this match, not a great spectacle so far, so many errors from both sides
Australias turn to blow a certain try with a poor forward pass by James O’Conner
@ Just For Kicks:
Hope the Baabaas gets some focus at half time, poor handling.
Another Australian break and the final pass spoils it. Another try blown.
Mealamu should be shot for that
48@ superBul:Yup, a stern talking to, I fear.
Barbarians 3 / Wallabies 18 (Half Time)
Only a scrummie could steal the show like that! Well done Stringer
O’Conner took too long with conversion and was charged down, no conversion kick
Lemoenetyd
