How many is too many? How many did Pollard give away?

So, if Wright is out for a while and McReight goes down with injury/illness or just needs a rest, who would you play at 7? Would be between Wilkin and Reimer in my book, but others also have good things to say about Tizzano and Gamble.

Wilson did you rate Uru's efforts at 7 for the Aussie Barbarians last year?

My point is that I thought he forced it simultaneously with the ball touching the ground. Certainly, if the ball hit the ground beforehand it would be a knock on but I don’t think that was the case.

Very impressed with Brial. Plays similar to Cale but with the extra 5kg or so that many think Charlie is missing. JOC (James O'Connor) had an excellent game. Added variety to the Reds play from the No 10 spot and didn't throw a long, forward pass to his outside backs all game. Also, I reckon he scored a...

Brial had a storming first half.

? With Rodda and Carter filling the second row for most of the latter part of SR24, Williams captained the Force from 6.

That's interesting Adam and thank you for going to the trouble of putting it together. I would hazard most posters would have a similar profile of votes favouring the team they support. I'm also wondering if in that period the Brumbies might have dominated the team selections or if they were...

He would need to be in the top three performers and imo he wasn't. So shoot me.

I posted before that I think RA is taking a laissez-faire attitude to the placement of the ex-Rebels contracted players because they've realised they don't have the power or influence to direct players to go where they (RA) would like to see them. If that is so, then it would also explain why...

Surely, French clubs are not interested in these players for one year only. At this stage of their careers, they would be expected to be on a steep learning curve, not necessarily looking for immediate, one year only sugar hit. I reckon there's a good chance the best of them will earn long term...

He actually looked to handle the No 6 spot with more physicality the he did in the second row. Maybe running a bit wider allows him to convert speed into momentum in the contact.

In the second half in particular, he looked indecisive on occasions and was taking two or three steps before deciding who to pass the ball to, and putting those receivers under a fair bit of pressure. That specifically why I didn't rate him in the 3, 2, 1 after the match.

Got it. Mixed him up with Anderson who is turning out on the bench on Friday.

Yeah, my bad.

Lancaster's going to be busy. Isn't he playing Friday night?

Well that lasted didn't it. Lancaster has apparently already signed for the Reds.

Is that right Tom? I recall he was red carded for an illegal clean out but I cannot remember a card from a maul.

Williams plays 6 at the Force.

Two TH props on the bench. Odd. Maybe Nonggoor won't be released and Sef Faagase can come into 17 allowing de Lutis to switch to the TH side.
