6 mins to go... Tonga get a penalty on the last! They're going for the penalty goal! They're singing in the stands. It is 40 minutes out... nearly in front.

Kotoni Staggs MISSES... 20m drop kick forced on Australia.

Keary is injured right?

Jack and Cotric are most likely to get scapegoated but the spine lost that game 10x over.

What is going on with Rugby league refereeing?

How can Havili tackle Staggs to finish the game?

I don't see how they would be, they were nowhere near our worst tonight.

Jack was good - Cotric solid, the Roos were let down by Mitchell and Munster.

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

At least we now know you can voluntarily tackle and then have a team mate jump on top of you and that's somehow ok

Oz won’t accept Jack as a real 5/8 until NSW do.

Might take another year for the rest of the nrl to catch on.

Latrell was his usual self. If he played for a crap team and not the Rorters he’d by regarded as inconsistent and Ill disciplined .

Well done Tonga. Beat every tier 1 nation in the last year or so correct? They have well and truly arrived.

Really enjoying international footy the last couple of years. Except what Wayne is doing to kill British rugby with his killjoy style and poor selection.

Wayne has well and truly leapt the shark.

Hooked I think. Doesn't look like he is coming back.
Didn’t deserve to be either.
Having Clark in the side meant hodgo was coming off at some point. Unless he switched to lock.

I don't know how they could get scapegoated for that. Munster and Latrell in particular were a lot worse.
Teddy also had it on a plate a couple of times but kept throwing the cut out.

Can you imagine how that Tongan team would go with Cronk or Thurston at half. Those guys became legends working with one or two hard running forwards. If they were behind that Tongan pack they would have a choice of devistating runners every play.

Tonga deserved to win. No respect for possession by Australia or aggressive driving defence.

Munster seems to reserve his worst for big matches. Last night and last year's Grand Final being 2 examples. Mitchell had poor ball security. Jack looked lost at times in defence. I thought Nick went ok but neither winger were in the game due to poor creativity by the halves.
