... particularly when we beat the Tahs, which we haven't done a lot of during the years.

Oztimmay the first time I saw a photo of Marika cleanly shaven I had no idea who it was.

The first half was average by both teams. But I was happy with the second half (maybe I was watching it through Rebels eyes). Yes we could have scored more but we made the Tahs do a lot of tackling. As for Tahs wow they did some dumb things, why would Hooper infringe before half time when they...

Congratulations to Marika Koroibete, who becomes the 15th player to play 50 Super Rugby games for the Rebels.

The problem with a 6-2 split is that the coach is more likely to hold the backs on the bench for longer in case there is an injury to a back in last 20 minutes. Unless there is an injury early in the match, can't see Deegan getting more than 15 or 20 minutes.

Fair call to show this video. But you don't think there is too much structure and not enough creativity in Aussie rugby? I can't recall the number of times over recent years where I have been frustrated by Aussie players not playing what's in front of them eg an overlap and just kicking the...

Yes I saw that earlier today.

I was messaging a mate over the weekend about Richie Mo'unga's kickoff. I said an Australian player wouldn't do that because they are too structured and wouldn't identify the opportunity. If he did identify the opportunity he wouldn't have the skills to do it. The kick would either not go 10...

A draw probably fair result given the quality of both teams.

Not sure what commentators were watching "Koroibete got ankle tapped." I thought it was a high tackle watching live.

Hodge comes on and goes bang.

Rebels had an extra man and it looked like the Reds had three extra men.

Didn't take long for Murphy to warn Louwrens for feeding the scrum too slowly. I thought that was an issue last week too.

Here is my preview of the match http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/rebels-v-reds-preview/#disqus_thread

KOB1987 according to rugby.com.au teams will be announced at 10am tomorrow.

The Rebels are playing the Reds on Friday at Brookvale Oval.

Slim 293 I agree 100% with this.

Good comeback by Rebels, but nothing to show for it. A couple of tactical errors with penalties late. Our last penalty goal we should have kicked into touch and had a crack at a try to go in front. Then with a minute to go, should have kicked for goal to get the bonus point.

How long does the scrum half get to feed the scrum. One of the Brumbies scrum penalty was as a result of Louwrens hanging on to the ball for an age. Fainga'a also lucky not to be penalised for a slow lineout throw.

So I was worried with the ease of the Brumbies' first try and had flash backs to round two this year. I thought we recovered well. Our scrum was dominating. Unfortunately some ill discipline has given the Brumbies opporrinities and the Rebels defence has been found wanting.
