Yeah a 20 team comp where 15 teams will never have a hope of winning

Yeah and look how fucking boring soccer is. One thing that makes the AFL good to watch is the equalisation. As a fan of a big club in the AFL equalisation hurts my team but you can see the benefit to the competition. All the NZ clubs get far more funding and have far bigger budgets

I agree, you can’t have a comp where some teams have close to double the budget of others

As soon as work starts on the Gabba the Lions will be done. Hosting them out of a 10k stadium on the outskirts of the city with the big games at the Gold Coast will hurt them massively. Plus with their shocking away record losing their home ground advantage at the Gabba will see them turn to...

Lions premiership contender? Is this a troll account? They suck they are about as likely to win at the MCG as the Wallabies are to win at Eden Park

Yeah but Quade has always copped it for his poor goal kicking. But also now he is investing time on his craft it’s improving. I have seen better goal kicking in b grade club rugby in Melbourne. If I was Foster I wouldn’t take Barrett to France. If Richie and DMac are the 10 and 15 do you want...

If he was an Aussie player we would all rip shreds off him for his kicking. To be that poor is unacceptable.

@Tomthumb still trying to argue that Noah is better than Gordon defensively. You may want to ask Caleb Clark, Mark Talea or Harry Plumber about that as they all got smoked last night

The injures Mafi, Uelese and Hosea all came in the first half

Imagine being a professional player for that long and being so hopeless at one of your core skills. Do they not pay him enough to afford to by a tee and a bag of balls? So he can go down to his local oval and put the work in.

They did step it up. Were the better side in the first 40. Very unlucky I thought Reiko had to be carded, a two handed slap to knock the ball down when he is defending his goal line easily deserved a yellow. I doubt that even the crusaders or chiefs would have beaten the blues if they lost the...

Flat track bully these days. Stood out in the second half when the Rebels were decimated and playing with reduced numbers. His goal kicking really was an embarrassment

No the didn’t the held up try in the 72nd minute was a testament of that. We were outsiders to begin with and when it all went wrong and we did struggle well kiwi side have that ability to hurt you.

You lose 4 tight 5 forwards in a game and you are always going to struggle the scrum and line out completely fell apart in the second half

Worst possible result with injuries to Pone, Jordy, Mafi and Hosea. When you add in Phillip and Hardwick you almost have an entire forward pack out

Look not a great second half, to lose Pone, Mafi, Uelese and Hosea the the Eloff yellow and having to play with 13. You are never going to win games when that happened. Reiko should have been yellowed for the knock down. Looked clear and obvious at the ground and the fact that they get the ball...

Should have been a red. Aimed high and hit high. He is 20cm shorter, there wasn’t a dramatic drop from Hosea. He made zero effort to tackle legally

Rebels to get it done at home

It says how shit life is over in NZ that one fifth of their population is here

Nobody is saying primarily of the back of someone’s defence
