Ant is packing at flanker for the Reds. Penalty against Slipper for not packing straight.

Every time the Rebels go wide there's an overlap. Big defensive tackles from the Reds gets a couple of turnovers.

Seven man Reds scrum and Genia is causing a few issues for the Rebels.

Whoever does the Res defensive patterns should be sacked, they are appalling.

Only one of those kicks has been easy for Cooper, but he should have gotten 2 of them.

And Cooper misses a sitter.

A penalty for blocking, rarely seen. Gift three points for the Reds on half time.

Let's see how the Reds seven man scrims hold.....

Don't like those low percentage penalty shots.

Reds defensive structures a mess as always. Overlaps all over the park. Rebels will run up a huge score here I think.

Bentham scores from a lot of good offloads, game Tahs. Bit disappointed in Peyper, but the Tahs should be happy for his mistakes their way. They've been off their game but still are clearly a class or two above the Blues.

Tahs have gotten the rub of the green in a huge way from Peyper. That binning of Kaino was a farce.

Stiles has done a good job with the set pieces, but the ruck work has not been too good. That'd be my biggest criticism of him.

Douglas wasn't even making the starting team after he first went over, and his form wasn't too great to boot, don't know how he is going more recently though. Douglas hasn't been a standout for the Wallabies in the past either (quite the opposite) unlike other guys who got the proposed...

And Knuckles is a lot like Dwyer for me, a bit out of touch with the modern game. Well, Knuckles more so than Dwyer I'd say. Knuckles may not also be the best choice as he's a huge fan of mind games, which I don't think the Reds need right now.

Cooper was apparently ahead of schedule and Lions was the earliest game according to his schedule, so he'd be likely to play I'd say.

He's currently playing for the U20s. Should be playing for Qld at the upcoming tournament. Not even sure if he'll start for the Qld U20s, actually.

I thought that both Quirk and Beau were due back, but I could be wrong. Quirk will need time at club rugby to get any form back, though.

It's a nerve injury, so it could either settle or just keep flaring up. Bit like a hamstring (or syndemosis?). One of those things.

Hopefully Beau will be back, otherwise it'd have to be Gunn. Graham could also opt for Thomson at 7, Browning and 6 and Schatz at 8, but I wouldn't want that. Quirk at 7 is another option, but again, not what I would want (and it's failed previously). And yeah, hopefully Browning gets a...
