Pocock ruled out of tonight's game with a sore back. Its the one spot the Aussies don't really have a direct replacement for.

You are a disgrace Australia, there are 5 or 6 guys who should never ever represent us again.
The Forwards are pathetic and our Scrums were embarassing :evil:

Geez, Moore, Ioanie and Pocock makes a huge differnce, probably 3 of our 4 most important players.

Now we probably have to progress through the same half of the draw as South Africa and NZ. youch!

Well done Ireland, too good, a big congratulations to JAS who will be partying hard!

Absolutely no passion from the Wallabies tonight.
Some players looked like they had somewhere else to be.
The breakdown was terrible, missed Pocock .

I think Robbie Deans will be regretting not having a backup to Pocock in the squad. A Phi Waugh or Beau Robinson would have been bloody handy tonight.

Spot on.
Deans' tactics tonight were baffling at times aswell, needed to use the subs a lot earlier

McCalman is crap.
Should not of even made the 30 man squad.
He hardly touched the ball and was very rarely sighted near the breakdown.
Agree terrible decision not to have a backup specialist No. 7.
Was always going to be an important position in a World Cup.

Wales beat Samoa 17-10.
Not a good sign as the 2 other World Cups Samoa beat Wales the Wallabies won!
Great game by Wales.

Wales captain Sam Warburton dedicated Wales' 17-10 World Cup win over Samoa to the families of four Welsh miners who died last week.
