Somebody was flogging to give him man of the match..

I think the little face thingy (whatever they are called) was a good hint at the comment may have been tongue in cheek. The blokes record in this place should earn him the benefit of the doubt. That is pretty much my view on the matter.

Well played Stormers. Those little fellas in their backs are lethal. They know how to use them too. Tahs had an off night which all teams do but the Stormers did their homework and made it happen. Tahs need a lineout badly. It will keep hurting them. Congratulations on the win Paarl.

Bloody good game. I think that is the busiest I have seen that Nandolo play. He made errors but I liked the way he went looking for work. Saders have really got the best out of him and it is paying off.

This is the logical choice without doubt. Can I just say we have an astute VC because hookers rarely play the full 80. We are limited in our options here with 80 minute players close to the action. Poey is the one name that springs to mind. Simmons is the other regular 80 minute player but...

Not a troll. The bloke puts excellent input into this forum regularly and you call him a troll because he says something that might cause controversy? Some people just can't handle when the NSW centric habits in Australian Rugby get called into question.

Too much fucking around fitting players in. Time to just harden up and accept that some of the forum favorites won't fit in.

Respectfully Lindo, that is all well and good if you choose to view the competition as 3 nations but others choose to view the competition as 15 franchises based on their own merits. I view it the latter and frankly confess after my love of the Reds I have a soft spot for the Highlanders, Lions...

Holding up well at ATM. Poey of old is back.

Bloke is just unbelievable.

Taps has a pretty rounded skill set. I would rather he be tried at 10 than Frisby. Just that little extra experience is a big advantage. Genia can ride a bit more pine so Frisby gets game time in his proper position.

That's it exactly. The logical reason behind the move.

I think the fact he is burdened by his injury past might make the bloke feel frustrated.

My apologies Reds Happy. I interpreted your post wrong. In that context I agree with you,

He may not be great at the moment and on the downer but let us not forget the fantastic service he has given Reds rugby over the years. I don't doubt frustration but it is wrong to question his heart. EDIT: I miss-interpreted RH's post leading to this reply.

Some positions will remain a specialist position regardless. Anyone remember how sacrificing that for flexability worked out at 7 at the 2011 RWC?

Yeah, should of stuck to appointing school mates.

I don't condone Horwill's actions but to me it looks like a combination of shithouse technique and shithouse timing. Looked like he was aiming for a physical clean out and his technique was shit. He missed a target and his timing was shit. The red was a fair call without doubt and he has to...

Look at players who are and have played 13 before. Let's see what options that throws up. Keen to see how Speight handles the position after a few more games. I don't think stupid is the term I would use but to be toying with an untried player in that position I don't think will end well with...

Maybe we should spread the pie to keep our depth rather than a few big names. Would of called that common sense myself. An inept coach and out of touch admin pissed that away at the end of the day. Now they are full of excuses, rather than owning the decisions they made. A loyal fan base are...
