Nic Stirzaker has re-signed with Rebels until end of 2015.

Highlander35 I was thinking the same as you re fit players. KevinO also agree with you may as well give Rokobaro a run and have Sa'u, Ellison and Woodward as cover for 10.

Shattered to see Lachie out for season. A consistent performer and great clubman. Also disappointed to see Veainu injured was hoping to see a bit more of his speed as a replacement for Lachie. All the best to both these guys and all our players in rehab.

Israel Folau is a gun. I had the joy of watching him play for the Storm for a couple of years, what seems like a lifetime ago. I am glad he is playing for the Wallabies. He could play for the Rebels every day of the week and twice on Sundays. As for people being critical of him scoring tries...

I know everyone is a bit down after last night's effort so I thought I would throw in some fun stats to hopefully cheer us up. With the debuts of Cruze Ah-Nau and Male Sa'u the Rebels have had 70 players play for us in Super Rugby. The two players to play for us with a surname beginning with E...

I know he might be a bit small but surely Rokobaro at full back had to be an improvement on Roberts. Lachie didn't look good. How long is Woodward out for? Again he makes silly errors but at least he provides some positives. Veainu may come in if Woodward not fit.

This might be a bit harsh but bring back Damien Hill.

Beale has done more for the Tahs tonight than his entire time at Rebels.

McGahan won't get Roberts off Peper did us a favour. Good work Tom Kingston.

We can't defend inside passes, lets throw one. There were about 4 Tahs waiting for it.

This is starting to get ugly. Where is the team that spanked Cheetahs?

Terrible way for Lachie to celebrate his 50th cap for the Rebels. All the best Lachie.

Great attempted tackle on Alofa by Roberts as he scored try ... not. Missed penalty and out on full by Hegarty. Awesome start not.

Surely we have a better "backup" fullback than Roberts. Kingston or Rokobaro? Roberts may have been selected because the kicking games of English and Mitchell are virtually non-existent. (Not that Roberts kicking game is great). He may develop into a Super Rugby quality player but at this stage...

I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere. I may have missed it (and I did miss Freier's five on Friday). Lachie Mitchell played his 48th Super Rugby game for the Rebels on Friday. This took him past Nick Phipps as the most capped player for the Rebels. Congrats Lachie.

I thought both the Crusaders and Rebels were average. They weren't helped by James Leckie. Someone needs to tell him we don't go to see him blow his whistle. Twenty penalties is amazing. Not sure how bad Woodward's injury is. Even if he is fit, some people are calling for him to be replaced...

Perhaps Veainu got picked ahead of Kingston this week because he is an ex-Crusader.

Surprised Kingston was left out too. How long before Sau replaces Roberts on bench?

I am away from home and don't have Fox but evidently Tony has found out that some of the additions aren't up to Super Rugby standard.

Shota Horie is in doubt for Friday's match v Cheetahs with leg and knee soreness.
