Especially a team as good as the Highlanders, they had an off first half the the Reds played well and took advantage. I was wondering if it would take until the Sunwolves for the Reds to get a win this year, happy it finally happened! And how good is Gill. Gees we are going to miss him next...

Reds stopped playing rugby in that second half, same way the Clan did vs the Tahs, and the same thing happened. Lots of luck went the Reds way with disallowed Clan tries, then the Clan got a break back with some luck for their tries. I'll take it as the Reds first win for the year, that...

Wow, that was lucky we held on.

Clan knock on 1 minute left under desperate Reds pressure. Reds scrum just needs to hold to win from here.

Nooooooo Frisby, then Gill kick. Reds are blowing this.

Reds turn it over, 2 minutes to right out on the clock.

Brain explosion for that grubber from Frisby.

Have to take the kick at goal? That was a bit unlucky for Tanaki as the ball bobbled in the scrum and Frisby didn't pick it up. For a horrible second I thought Jackson wasn't going to call it.

Wow, Kafe was actually right. Luck went the Clan way on that one, so far offside at that lineout it was obscene. Will be hard for the Reds to hold on now.

I'd just like to see the forwards working harder around the corner, backline moves closer to the advantage line, less indecision and less static play from the 10, and finally more sensible crash balls than an isolated Fainga'a 4 channels wide. Just going the same way around the corner to the...

Bit of both, but I'd guess that more of it being told RG would be gone, so signing on for another year, only for RG to be rehired. Geez our backline was dire today though, and unfortunately a lot of the blame falls squarely with McIntyre.

Two comments from being at the game: surprised that the Tahs didn't get a yellow or at least more warnings after so many penalties, and McIntyre was shocking running the Reds backline that game. Best that could be said about him is that he was a hand brake on an already stunted backline, just...

I'm in Brisbane visiting family for this game, with the dismissal of RG I will be happily attending and bringing to two others as well to watch a noble loss to the Tahs.

As a Reds supporter, the good part is that I think we're unlikely for the spoon! A very much improved performance. Still issues in defence, but more enterprising. So much better than what we got under RG. At times you can even see what they are trying to do. The other good thing is that...

I actually think it was the correct call from Umaga, as much as it does suck. Scoring a man down after the hooter is very low percentage.

At the very least it would've gotten a flanker off the field for another prop. Simmons isn't the most the astute captain, if you get the drift.

Umaga looked relieved in the box. Kicking for goal was the percentage play without a doubt. Simmons' call for a very deep throw off of their reserve hooker's first throw was a poor call. Way too low and easily picked off when it shouldn't have been.

Not hard to read Stiles' lips there. Bit of emotion at least. Kicked by West! 25 all.

Neville gives away a dumb penalty for not rolling. Blues immediately break out but off a forward pass brought back. Blues having a shot at goal for a draw.

Hooter gone. Blues 22m out. Going nowhere so far.
