Thankfully there's a heated pool at Victoria park and I'm fairly sure all Rugby clubs have these;

Lindo, sounds like you can't handle your aperol spritz's if you need all this non-drinking time walking between places.

Why are we rushing an 18 year to play at the senior level?

Interesting enough, Tupou's calf went during the scrum at the 42 minute. Or what everyone knows it as, the scrum where the chiefs loose head was at a 90 degree angle. The 5 minutes or so leading up to it was pretty stop start rugby. Knowing Tupou has gone the full 80 before, I wouldn't say...

Is Zane back from his injury yet? Feao should be able to cover adequately. Would be an interesting experiment to put LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) at 6 to help give some extra weight at scrum time if we want to still try and use the scrum for penalties.

ESPN is reporting that very thing; https://www.espn.co.uk/rugby/story/_/id/33839164/wallabies-set-midweek-melbourne-bledisloe-return-adelaide

I'm not calling for their heads, just we need other alternatives. The amount of unforced and handling errors the backs have made over the last three weeks has been astronomical. I'd probably even say the ball handling of the squad is extremely poor where any momentum we try to grapple back...

After the last few weeks, it's becoming pretty obvious the Reds need to search for some new outside backs next season. With JOC (James O'Connor) out, the more experienced players in Hunter, Flipio and Jock just haven't stood up. Add in Vunivalu being completely unreliable and it's obvious that our backs just...

I thought Hoopert has been playing well, but I feel he's body/frame is just too light to play prop at this stage. For those that watched the game at home, in the offloads leading up to Campbell being sent off, I think the second last pass was a roll out of the hands. From the ground it looked...

Paul is doing everything to ensure his fellow Kiwis are retaining as much ball possession as they can....

We won't have to hear any more from Foster when the Wallabies win back the Bledisloe this year!!

Managing his body? He barely did anything last week, plus he's a winger, not like their bodies go through huge demands.

Did we really spend that much time and effort developing him though? Over the couple of seasons he was with us, he started, what, less than a handful of games and another handful from the bench? Happy for him to play with the Drua if the stories are correct about him leaving due to family...

Yeap, there were more green seats visible than blades of grass on the field. Really hard to see where we go forward with Rugby in Melbourne as it seemed like a pretty wasted opportunity.

Maybe he wanted to see how much of a loss Jack Howarth was/is?

But clubs around the world are starting to implement foreign quotas. There won't be enough spots to cover the 30-40 players you'd want in these spots. Last night wasn't a talent problem, the Reds blew the Hurricanes away in the first 25 minutes. Take away Julian's "deliberate knock back" and...

Hunter made enough breaks and turn overs from tackles. He made poor decisions after the break and fell into pushing passes.

It's his third or fourth poor game this season. He was dropped for the same thing; poor ball retention.

Thorn took the wrong Fijian winger off. Bloody hell.

Tate needs to start directing Creighton what to do. The momentum swinging back to the Canes stems from Creighton throwing that speculative cut out that was grabbed by Julian.
