Now we have a warning given to the Rebels. So a yellow card is on the horizon.

Are these two really Super Rugby Pacific teams? Or are they some third grade club teams?

Is it bad to say that the best part of this game have been the fights?

They are the two worst teams in the competition * * Other than Moana Pasifika.

I am very worried. The first half is usually the Rebels best.

Not sure fun is the correct word.

Good run by Ili to set up Hardwick.

How did Mafi not score there?

I think Hardwick was our best player last night. He was in our top 3 players this year with Gordon and Ili before he got injured.

Stability. A number of players have re-signed since the coaches have re-signed. The cynic in me is saying I wonder if some of the players re-signed after the coach announcements because they are almost guaranteed a game in this average team and unlikely to get a game elsewhere.

Dear World Rugby, I am lodging a petition for the length of a rugby game to be reduced from 80 minutes to 40 minutes. On behalf of all Melbourne Rebels fans. Thanks.

Josh Kemeny re-commits to Rebels until end of 2025.

This week Reece Hodge is set to play his 97th Super Rugby game for the Rebels. This will see him join Tom English as the most capped Melbourne Rebels player. Well done Reece.

The Storm had the 3rd or 4th highest average home attendance in the NRL in 2022. That is reasonably big. As for the Rebels, not that we ever see an attendance figure (except for Super Round) I would say we are probably second last ahead of only Moana Pasifika for average home crowds.

Stan's coverage might be better than Kayo/Foxtel but in terms of getting eyeballs Kayo/Foxtel is better. Kayo/Foxtel have the AFL, NRL, F1, Netball etc. So more likely to have your casual sports fan watching / stumbling across the rugby. On Stan, you have the UEFA Champions League, some Motor...

Back on the discussion of Rebels crowd sizes I don't even think it is we like winners. It is that for 13 seasons we have had significantly more losses than wins. So not even many / any break even seasons. That is a fair length of time without any real success. We have made the finals once in...

Rebels run home: Brumbies (home) Waratahs (away) Highlanders (away) Force (home) Brumbies (away) If we can beat Tahs, Highlanders and Force, which we are capable of, we will probably make the finals. If we don't win those matches we don't deserve to make finals.

Perhaps there were two incidents. But the incident the other guys are talking about is when Gordon got smashed after passing the ball.

Wow, I had a visions of us losing that match at the end.

Wanted to get the bonus point.
