And on cue, we get the Edmonds kick through.

This is horrible from the Brumbies. Absolutely terrible.

Oh dear. Surely the Brumbies can't find a way to lose this one?

The Reds are so subtle at doing it that the commentators for their game last week were pointing it out! I'm pretty certain that when a Rebels player took issue with Higginbotham doing it, that's when a bit of the biff started.

If Tom Carter isn't seen as good enough to be a Wallaby, then I don't see why a player in Anthony Fainga'a, who really is quite similar in ability, should be selected for the Wallabies (I don't think either are good enough to be honest). Both are solid in defense, bend but don't break the line...

Yes but you have the right to place the ball in the first place. You will often see a player being tackled, a defender come in to contest the ball, and the tackled player will move where they were going to place the ball as to better enable their team to win back the ball. Not penalized there...

It makes me cringe when commentators who have played rugby professionally think there is a 'double movement' call in union.

Dickinson is normally accurate, but tonight he has missed a lot. Agree re the Force though. Tahs have tried to chance their arm, but I don't think they have the cattle at the moment.

Ulugia crosses for a try! Despite the crapness, the Tahs are leading 20-15!

Dickinson has been wildly inconsistent tonight...seemingly in the favour of one side over the other. Someone always cops the short end of the stick with a ref in shit form. Not saying the Tahs haven't been terrible, they have been, but luck/ref decisions aren't helping.

Not looking good for Nathan Charles. Does a Taf and get his head in the wrong place, out cold. Stretchered off.

Why would the Waratahs collapse their own scrum in the Force 22? Dickinson has been terrible tonight.

Dickenson has missed so much tonight, and Beale being tackled in the air takes the cake. What the fuck is he looking at?

Geez the Tahs are playing some stupid rugby. They should all know by now how strict (some might say pedantic) Dickenson is at the ruck, yet they continue to consistently toe the line.

Wow. Beale misses a relatively easy kick, hitting the upright, and Cross catches the rebound after running through, and scores the try. 13-9 to the Tahs. Maybe a better reflection of how the match has gone?

If that's the case, I really hope the Tahs don't follow through with their interest...

Cue the praise for the Reds 'grinding' win from the same people who derided the Tahs for their performance last week :fishing

Wow, the Rebels horrific defense rears its ugly head. Higginbotham puts his hand up for the Wallaby 13 jersey with a 50 metre run for a try.

Samo with another penalty, not rolling away from the tackle. Huxley misses it, still 3-0. Rebs are a completely different side at home.

Stupid penalty from Samo, playing at the ball from an offside position at the ruck. Huxley kicks the penalty, 3-0 to the Rebs.
