So the Tahs will be trying to play their "power game" against a side that is the epitome of the power game

Is it really? A crash ball 12 plays a lot like a a NRL edge backrower

I stood next to Sualaii on Friday night massive human

Well it does go to character, especially when you add in the more accurate descriptor "pregnant wife" "illegal" no, immoral - yep (I hate cheaters, total disrespect for the partner) But I still want to live in a world where we show a level of belief in redemption

Yeah, but I still like to believe in redemption, I hope he turns his life around, becomes a better human and becomes a great role model

Different game, much more pressure from a well organised set of pigs creates errors

So ......................... for long periods of this game the Tahs were getting though contact and yet at no time did we look like leveraging that advantage The clan played rope a dope, absorb the pressure, wait for the turnover and pounce. Spread the ball wide through effective catch pass...

It is nice to see the team now have multiple kicking options - all with length, much harder for chasers to focus and pressure that lone kicker

I was really impressed with Vunivalu's efforts in this match, he was even doing double defensive efforts late is this game, massive improvement in workrate

He has been quite good for a number of years, he initially had issues in contact, but those days are well and truly gone. Penny said that when coaching the Tahs he had to cut the budget by $1 mil, I think that is why he ended up in the Japanese second division He will never be the greatest...

I understand it is a Victorian Government funded thing, if other governments want to pony up ....................... well let them go at it

After watching all the kiwi teams I have come to the sad realisation that saders are currently the worst kiwi side, still a great win but .......

Reds are playing smart and keeping it away from the backs

Why is Petia so patchy in kick return?

I did like to see a proper backs move for Wilson's try runners inside and outside channels running effective lines created defensive hesitation Also, it is great to see a real 12 who can pass & kick, Walton has had a shit run with injuries and now we get to see what he can do

Swinton hasn't played great since returnig from nerve damage

It will be nice to watch Hanagin and Lee-Warner sharing 80 minutes, both work hard and provide that 3rd lineout option

Well, couldn't be happier to have demonstrated my lack of rugby knowledge and the Tahs proved me wrong Great win

If anyone has that article/quote please post it, I would love to see the rest of it

Lets hope there is a plan and it includes more games of rugby, someone posted a Wessel's quote (paraphrasing) "you can't run a shop that is only open 7 times a year" It was one of the better explanations of the basic failure of the current Super Rugby model
