That's what we said about Simmons... :(

i know McInerney only has limited game time, but his game against the Chief's was superb, personally I think one of the best games from an Aus Hooker so far this season. So if you're talking form he would probably be up there. Although definitely need to see a larger sample size from him.

Please please please let the Brumbies absolutely humiliate the Tahs.

So the Tahs, Rebs, and Reds numbers aren't down too? Only the Brumbies? As a Brumbies fan, that's pretty shit. They deserve better.

I'd prefer some-one who has played there all season too. I don't think JOC (James O'Connor) actually has a lot of experience playing at 12. To'omua does though, and would be the better option there.

Meakes looked pretty good on the weekend too though, so that might hurt Stewarts chances. I still think Simone and JOC (James O'Connor)/To'omua are going to be favoured.

Super Rugby in general doesn't have many casual fans. This is not a Brumbies issues, but a whole super xv issue.

This is my point exactly, Rodda's point of difference is his line-out calling and set-piece abilities....... but if he's not performing in those areas then you might as well go with a new line-out caller. Otherwise you're better off with Simmons ;)

What's so wrong with Manuka? can go have a drink or coffee before or after the game there, or head to kingston nearby. Pretty poor form to say they would not attend - I'd rather go there then out in whoop whoop to Bruce.

Obviously referring to the Reds season as a whole. Line-out has been poor all season and he's the line-out caller, so if he isn't performing better around the park then Philip or LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto), then he shouldn't be first choice.

Just because he jumps in the line-out doesn't make him a suitable test level line-out option. Michael Hooper also jumps in the line-out. Samu jumps in the line-out often too. I'd argue Samu and Wright are at the same level of line-out jumpers. Both better then Hooper but both behind any of...

The Reds line-out has been poor all season.

Samu also jumps in the line-out. Wright is way down the pecking order for me at 7. Both Hooper and Samu easily in front of him. Then at 6, I'd take Valetini, Wilson, or even LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) before Wright. He a solid player but doesn't really have any point of difference yet.

100% he's there ahead or Koro, what a surprise. It's going to be hard for Rennie not to pick the super xv leading try scorer. (if he continues playing the way he does). I'm putting my money on the two Rebel wingers starting.

Here's an idea, Matt Philip over Rodda. As I feel Rodda is big part of the Reds poor line-out. Philip and LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) as a lock pairing.

Staniforth has been disappointing. I remember him at the Brumbies being really physical at such a young age in his few chances. I thought he would develop into a hardworking imposing lock. But he is M.I.A most of the game. Agree Dempsey has been one of the biggest disappointments.

You don't need luck. You need a solid line-out, goal kicker and maul.

Well the Tahs just looked so lazy. How on earth Beale got the Captain's band is beyond me, he looked like the laziest one out there, slow to his feet after every tackle, no work off the ball in defence. Say what you want about Hooper, I feel his leadership as Captain would have come in handy.

I didn't think Sio was that bad. Just a step off his usual pace and impact, it won't take much to get him back. Slipper on the other hand, he's just making everyone look bad, the man is on fire. How good is his running lines from depth.

Yesterday I would have said it's too soon for Wilson, he's just a tad too small and fresh. But after watching his effort today against the Crusaders, I'm all for seeing that backline. It's more likely Wilson will feature off the bench, but he's surely somewhere in the squad.
