    Reds 2015

    This in itself is surely the responsibility of the coach(es) to address this problem of CFS's play. Some meaningful one-on-one discussion, like "Chris, mate, some good plays in that last game, but mate, you looked like a three legged wombat without a burrow for the rest of it. Mate, keep that up...

    Wallaby 31 players for 2015 RWC

    Surely a typo, a team making over 100 tackles is a reasonable benchmark.

    The impending Hooper vs Pocock Dilemma

    I apologize if this aspect of the Hooper/Pocock selection dilemma has already been analysed. To me, Hooper suits the fast running game of rugby, as he's all over the place, backing up, taking passes into open space, fast in defence etc. etc. For Pokock, who can forget his playing style against...

    Braveheart, you're at the wrong site here. Go around the back of the building and find the slagheap called 'Waratahs':D

    Wallaby 31 players for 2015 RWC

    Having Ben Alexander as the run-on THP makes me extremely nervous, particularly against England. He plays OK at scrummaging in S15 level but doesn't cut the mustard as an international. He reminds me a bit of Al Baxter and Matt (dropkick) Dunning. As props keeping up the scrum in tests, they...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    Selections are weird for U17 Qld side. The Brisbane Pink won the 'C' pool over Sunshine Coast, Ipswich, and Brisbane Purple, and yet get only two selections in the state side. Sunshine Coast get 5, Brisbane Purple 4, and Ipswich 3. Logan in Pool 'D' got 5 even. What gives? When Brisbane Purple...

    Reds 2015

    What is good from the Red's point of view (and there are very few positives at present) is that we have the bye this weekend for the return players, especially the backs, to get reacquainted with each other's play via extended training. And then to play in those positions against the Lions...

    Maybe Rob Simmons is part of the coach's switcheroo strategy for the Lions game.

    Reds vs Brumbies - Rd 5, 2015

    RG might do a last minute switcharoo again at the last moment - not much else to pull out of the hat such as a plan:)

    Reds 2015

    I think RG had no choice regarding Harris. He knew he was going to be a 'pine-duster' player with Cooper at 10, and with both Hunt & JOC (James O'Connor) better fullbacks, then who wouldn't move onto the Rebels where there was an attractive pay packet after they lost their fullback back to Hurricanes in NZ.

    Reds 2015

    I saw an incredible game at Ballymore last night where the U17 Gold pathway teams, Sunshine Coast (SC) and Brisbane Pink (BP) played . Whats this got to do with the Reds you might ask? Well there was a certain analogy there to behold, at least, in the first half, exemplified even more by the...

    Unfortunately not. I was told later it was the half back, but I cannot verify that.

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    The U17 game was very much so, with Sunshine Coast getting their 15 points in the first half and Brisbane Pink, in the second half, scoring their second try (not converted from a quick field gaol attempt) to go to 10 points with the ensuing kick-off taken by SC with 55 seconds remaining on the...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    U17 game against Ipswich was 12 all. Unbelievable at the end. An Ipswich player ran up behind the Brisbane Pink flyhalf as he was walking back to his position, and threw a full on punch to the back of his head. Completely a red card offence. The ref called in the assistant refs, had a...

    Reds v Waratahs, round 4, Saturday 7 March

    TOCC - please don't post. It's harder for the rest of us Reds fans than you to see that dreaded poisonous flower as your avatar, even though it is red:p

    Reds v Waratahs, round 4, Saturday 7 March

    Well in my dream, it was Chuck Norris. But he's the silent type. Had a couple of Waratah scalps hanging from his belt, and was showing the thumbs up posture. And oh yes, he was wearing a Reds jersey. He turned away and then turned back, & it was 'Big Kev'.

    Karmichael Hunt charged with cocaine supply.

    Just goes to prove my conviction belief, "that the law is an ass."
