I’ve been reading a lot about the Irish 10. Yes he has a beautiful boot and loops around the back of his outside backs in excellent support. However I thought he threw at least 4 forward passes with his short passing game and crabs straight across field before looping around. To be honest he...

Norths had a bad 10 minutes and then struck back. Fitness looked a lot better but just struggle at scrum time and simply cannot defend an attacking line out. They have a really good up tempo attack so plenty to work with , some depth would help.

Wests field looks absolutely awful on TV. Not sure what has gone wrong with all the money they have spent there. Is it is bad as it looks?

Geez this is a sloppy start by Lonergan at 9, shocker

At least 3 players from the Norths colts side last year played today, which is a good sign especially when there is so much leakage from the under ages into Brothers. Hamish Muir is going really well at 15 in his first year in seniors. Not much of him but has some real class. If they could...

Harry Wilson huge game !!!! Superb skills

That is the most blatant knock and forward pass on lol . Luv the home time ref

Defence was optional today. Both sides would have been disappointed with their defence today. Way too many easy tries.

Geez Taj Annan is an absolute liability in defence, he has no idea.

Good point Reg, big opportunity at no 2 with the Wallaby squad. Jordan and Mafi had awful trouble throwing straight last night for the Rebels, definitely a position a left field selection could come from.

Best game all year for Jock Campbell, no coincidence with him moving back to fullback. He’s still behind Wright and probably Kellaway but it is good we are building some depth at 15. Some other Reds players including Tate, Fraser and Liam Wright would have impressed Eddie on Friday night. Right...

No 2 for Rebels simply can’t throw.

Carter Gordon continues to impress, tough as nails. Love it.

Tate and Fraser really stood up tonight, great for the future for the Reds. 2 really strong young leaders both signed to long term contracts. Best thing for Tate was missing out on the Wallabies squad he has been excellent since. Smarts by Eddie with this.

Surely you don’t have Foley as No 2?

I agree I wouldn’t be too excited about either side if that is what they look like in 6 plus weeks time however Brothers will receive at least 6, possibly more players from the Reds. If Wilson ends up back in club rugby with Brothers they will dominate. JOC (James O'Connor) will most likely be playing at Crosby...

Carter Gordon has secured his place in our top squad with his performances this year. Clearly our No 2 first five . Exciting to have a 10 with great vision, really the first we have had with this type of vision since QC (Quade Cooper).

Carter Gordon is easily the best 10 across the Oz super rugby sides. He will be a great back up to QC (Quade Cooper) and is miles in front of Foley. Exciting to have a 10 that can attack the line and has a brilliant passing game. Had a real crack in defence as well. Well played today.

Brothers were very ordinary first 20 minutes. Thought they would over run GPS at end however Jeeps held on. Bas Ward looked very assured at 10 for GPS , maybe that was his run on debut?? Brothers with all their super rugby players back are a scary proposition back end of the second round and...

I would like to see Lynagh start over Creighton. Points will be at a premium and Lynagh is by far the best goal kicker. I also like how he directs the team around in general play.
