Will Jack Debreczeni ever have enough experience to not make simple mistakes like not finding touch after a penalty?

Super Sefa is back... bewdy. Not bad for someone who on injury list at start of week was still listed as indefinite. Tamati fit to go surprises me a bit.

I just read an article by Nick Smart in Herald Sun he mentions injuries to Ellison (hamstring), Placid (shoulder) (which we already knew about) and English (knee). McGahan said we will have a look at them and get a read on those guys in coming days.

Another gem from George Gregan "because of 6-2 split on bench Reid is playing in centres" George we had Stirzaker, Crawford and Hodge on bench looks like a 5-3 split to me.

Debreczeni should have improved his consistency and decision making after 20-odd games. Hit by a few injuries tonight too Placid hurt his shoulder. I think English may have been injured too. I assume given Ellison was replaced by Fuglistaller and Reid playing in centres that Tamati was injured too.

Placid is from Queensland originally.

Can we do a mid-season trade? Send Placid to Leicester Tigers and get Telusa Veainu back?

Butchered a try there Placid needed to get that pass back to Shipperley earlier. Either selfish or no awareness of game situation. Would have been very handy particularly given the Highlanders' domination.

JP du Plessis is certainly a journeyman. He even spent some time at Montpellier.

Highlander35 Pat Leafa was also at Rebels in 2013 so he is pre-McGahan. Also JP du Plessis who played 1 game for Rebels (well about 1 minute of 1 game) is playing for the Kings this year.

94 players have represented Rebels in Super Rugby. Inagaki player 85 (last debutant last year) plus 9 debutants this year (Hanson, Hodge, Thomson, Hawkins, Hagan, Matsushima, Moloney, Snowden, Tuipulotu) From my count 61 of those players have moved on plus the four who didn't play a game...

Mr Wobbly Sitauti played 2 seasons with Bay of Plenty in ITM Cup and then went to France Pro D2 side Colomiers.

Thanks Highlander35 didn't realise there was anything under those stars on website.

Highlander35 excuse me for being naive but where on Rebels website do I find the alumni page? I thought all that sort of stuff disappeared from new website. Just like the Rebel player number and Super Rugby and Rebels stats from current player profiles.

For Cummins to miss 6-8 weeks it must be a bad tear of hamstring. I can't see a cork to hamstring keeping someone out for 6 to 8 weeks. I assume then that Cummins has injured his hamstring at the same time as he has been tackled and that is why hamstring has been torn worse than normal. Wow...

So the Rebels only used 17 players on Saturday night, which would have been due mainly to close match. But that can't help the weariness of players due to the travel. Hopefully that doesn't come back to bite us on Saturday.

Jamie Hagan has been a late withdrawal the last two weeks I assume that means he is injured. Does anyone have any info regarding Hagan?

Thanks Swingpass wrist -concussion they are close aren't they lol.

I have heard that Tamati Ellison has a wrist injury. Don't know length of time on sidelines.

Apparently Reece Hodge is out for a month with his quad injury.
