Reds v Blues Rd 11 Fri 25th April 2025

[dru]

Don't agree with that scrum penalty. Should have been a reset, but the refs want to move on. It is slippery ref.

[Derpus]

Oh wow what a well worked try.

 

[Shiggins]

That reminds me of drew Mitchell in his prime coming in off the wing getting an inside ball. Slightly different but man the wallabies scored a lot of trys like that in the day

 

[dru]

Hodgman popped up there.

 

[Derpus]

That was easy

 

[dru]

Soft. Reds opened up there.

 

[Derpus]

Where was Paisami going?

 

[Shiggins]

Ryan looks 70 kg. Literally soaking wet

 

[dru]

Blake down for a line-out.

 

[dru]

Haha! Asiata back on just in time for a mall try! (Blake will be spitting chips)

 

[Derpus]

What a clinical maul. Huge.

 

[Dismal Pillock]

Reds with a smart game plan and superior attacking structures ball in hand.

Blues a team going nowhere and not knowing how to get there. Season over.

 

[dru]

Not sure how you pull out of that.

 

[Derpus]

Less clinical maul. Never understood why the Hooker stays in when its moving backwards.

Yeah he needs to develop a bit but it’ll just take time.

Having a classic 2nd year syndrome but it’s good to see him get picked, play and work through it and he’ll learn way more than being shelved into Club land where he can get away with errors.

 

[Derpus]

Reds trying to give them a chance?

 

[TSR]

Despite playing mostly of the bench I think Blyth is having his best year for the Reds.

He must be the most physical Australian lock and is really nailing his core duties - scrum, lineout, maul, tackle, breakdown. Not flashy but plenty of substance.

 

[dru]

That's disappointing

 

[Derpus]

Blues can score two tries in five minutes. Didnt they do that last year?
