WHEN THIS VIDEO came across our Twitter feed from the excellent Murray Kinsella yesterday, we all nodded in agreement that Brian O’Driscoll’s sub-par performance was a consequence of playing with Jonathan Davies. So we patiently awaited to hear Gatty concurring with that view alongside his new Test captain through the night.

How wrong we were, but the analysis provided from The Touchline blog still holds true and gives a nice insight into three key phases of the game when the midfield partnership broke down and gave the Wallabies room to breath.

It won’t make you any less confused as to why Drico was dropped, but it will stop you pulling your hair all the way out. At least until Adam Ashley Cooper breaks the line again.
