Kevin sounds like you have an insider in the Rebels prize department.

Thalium funnily enough the first time we played Fijian Drua on the day of the game Rebels members received an email from our Chairman. Part of the tone of email was "we don't use injuries as an excuse but ..." It was definitely setting expectations that we might lose that game to the Drua...

Moses Sorovi isn't on the injury list. How is he not in the 23?

I think this is the first week the injury list has been on the team announcement.

Melbourne Rebels Injury List: Trevor Hosea – Foot (Round 12– 13) Pone Fa’amausili – Calf (Round 11- 12) Rob Leota – Hamstring (Round 10-11) Josh Kemeny – ACL (TBC) Josh Canham – Concussion (Round 8) Tamati Ioane – Concussion (Round 8) Ross Haylett-Petty- Concussion (Round 8) Lachie...

Congratulations to Richard Hardwick who will be the 17th player to play 50 Super Rugby games for the Rebels. No idea how Tuttle gets picked ahead of Sorovi. Happy to see Tonumaipea back in the starting line up.

To be expected when the two centres have a grand total of 6 Super Rugby games.

I actually think it is the other players fault. It is something that has happened consistently at Rebels. It is as if they don't expect their team mates to make a good run or make a line break. They don't support the runner. Used to happen a lot to guys like Amanaki Mafi and Isi Naisarani.

Tomikin I was at the other end of the ground but on the replay on big screen I didn't think Sorovi grounded it.

For those at home. How was the pass before Brumbies last try? OK or forward? I am behind sticks, so hard to tell.

Red or yellow?

Who is the Rebels defensive coach? His head must be on chopping block too. Defence is like paper mache.

Rebel man you have to remember that the Swans have had a 16 year head start on the Storm. (ie since moving to Sydney) This helps inspire the next generation and set up junior pathways. Although, I do agree that has been one disappointing part re: the Storm the small number of Victorian juniors...

Congratulations to Matt Philip who is set to be the 16th player to play 50 Super Rugby games for the Rebels.

Good to see Kellaway, Hodge and Hardwick back. Also happy to see Sorovi picked ahead of Tuttle. Young Tonumaipea unlucky to be benched.

Purce I agree with your comment. The other thing re: S&C this year is not isolated. We seem to have had a long injury list come round 1 for 3 or 4 years now. Although, not as long as this year.

Another brilliant try. JOC (James O'Connor) holding up the pass for McReight.

How good was that try? JOC (James O'Connor) kicking for Flook. Brilliant by Flook.

Then we had to wait until a last minute converted try to final make Super Rugby AU Finals.

We had some hope when Quade and Will were here and started the season really well but then went down in a massive heap. Worst thing about tonight was we were 14-0 up, let them score right on half time when we had an extra man advantage (and lost).
