    Qld Premier Rugby 2023

    How does everyone see this weekend’s matches? I expect Bond and Brothers will cement their top 4 spots. Easts v Uni - the tigers at home, just Cannot get a read on Wests and GPS

    Qld Premier Rugby 2023

    I agree he enforced the laws but he should have said high tackle, foul play, no mitigation. The fact that he mentioned “force” diminishes the interpretation. The tackler was passive. Perhaps if the referee consulted his AR and allowed for his heart rate to drop before calling Red, it would...

    Qld Premier Rugby 2023

    I cannot find data to back up my statement so it’s more anecdotal and based on watching the game. One thing is clear and that’s the issue of brain injury in rugby. Not necessarily via concussions but the aggregate of impacts - scrums, tackles, being tackled, mauls, clean outs at the ruck etc...

    GPS six tries to five. But if you start taking into account penalties that could have should have would have been kicked, you have to come back to half way for the kick offs and guess what would have could have should have happened. Changes the course of the whole game.

    Good problem to have. HMP talented enough to play 12 too. But please give both of them a couple of years. There will be others coming through too.

    Qld Premier Rugby 2023

    Knee jerk reaction by the man in the middle. Just a reflex tackle and wasn’t dangerous to the ball carrier. As we know more concussions caused from tackling than being tackled.

    Qld Premier Rugby 2023

    Pritchard (Bond 7) very unlucky to get a red. Yes it was high and no mitigation. Referee said he’d come in with speed and force but he was flat footed and just stuck a lazy arm out with very little force. A yellow would have been more appropriate. No consultation with ARs. Tim Ryan bounced...

    Qld Premier Rugby 2023

    Tough round for tipsters. Wests at home to Uni will be too tough and too strong. End of story. Easts to fight back from last round’s close loss to Bond and will get over Norths. They’re going to be top 4 with this team. Need to win the close ones this season and cling onto their top 4 spot...

    Moana v Reds 14/4

    Have watched both closely for Wests and Faifua and Anderson are not up to this level. Liam is huge loss. Vest at lock? Reds are short!

    Round 7: Reds v Brumbies - Friday April 7 @ Suncorp 7:35pm

    If you were naming a “Breds” team after that game, QLD would maybe get 4 players. Petaia, Wright, Campbell (wing) and McDermott. Outplayed in every other position.

    Round 7: Reds v Brumbies - Friday April 7 @ Suncorp 7:35pm

    Wilson doesn’t penetrate the line. Collapses too easily into tackles. Weak glutes?

    Round 7: Reds v Brumbies - Friday April 7 @ Suncorp 7:35pm

    I am liking this version of the Reds. A lot more feeling in their tackles and seem to be up for it. But Brumbies get a sniff and they take advantage.

    Round 7: Reds v Brumbies - Friday April 7 @ Suncorp 7:35pm

    Cynical no hands in ruck in red zone

    That was a wallaby play from Tom Wright.

    Round 7: Reds v Brumbies - Friday April 7 @ Suncorp 7:35pm

    Full red and probably the end of the contest. Discipline woes continue.
