Bit disappointing from the Kiwi Rebels tonight. Have only shown real urgency in attack in the last 10-15 minutes. Vito my man of the match

Barrett is 3 for 3 and Canes lead 9-0. Rebels not getting their hands on the ball. Canes seem to be controlling it pretty well except when they try to run it out of their 22

Were they ever considered that this year given they lost their most influential player in Clarke?

Scrappy first half with lots of messy ball at ruck time for Blues and LO/Scrums for Chiefs. Kaino and Nonu looking good despite Nonu's howler that resulted in the Big Ben try. Marshall looking very dangerous from fullback for the Chiefs.

Agree. Halai is certainly big enough to have gone all the way.

Typical OZ, blaming someone else for their problems....... :) Looks a good squad for France. Mix of experience and some very green players. Might even get the Les Bleus jersey out and go to the Etihad test.

I think the problem with that at was that TKB ran behind his prop and there were tacklers right there. Thought the commentary was borderline embarrassing during that passage. It doesn't matter if they weren't going to get TKB, because the proximity was too close to just allow it to happen...

Do you read all the citing commission reports and findings? How do you know it's inconsistent?

Very surprised to see Ma'a in a suit. He's more a hoody and shorts guy, well that's what he wore at official things at the Canes.......

Good honest assessment there Ash. Not happy times for a staunch Reds man like yourself. I must say that was probably Horwill's best attacking game in ages. Really put the head down and made some tough yards and took a couple of defenders with him. But that was a small positive among a lot of...

Frisbee flew in there. It's comedy hour with Mertz :)

Reds in disarray in defence. Not keeping their line and trusting each other. 3 guys went in to try and tackle Halai and not one nailed him and Genia was forced to clean up.

Perhaps you should stop studying finance and study a bit of geometry. Saili's head was below his torso

Which call cyclo?

Reds need better security at the ruck. Blues having their way at the collisions.

Ref made the wrong call but the penalty was still warranted. Still played the ball with his hands after the ruck was formed/called

There's a real vulnerability with the Hall/Hickey combination. Hickey's kicking game is iffy and whilst he's shown some glimpses of what he's capable of, he is still very green and someone like Gill could do a number on him. Kaino was simply a class above last week. He will be gunning for...

You are overlooking some of the genuine reasons sports fans gain an "association" with some sporting teams and it has nothing to do with the postcode. I lived in Melbourne as a kid. Our family loved basketball, still does. But we weren't Tigers, Spectors or Saints fans. The ol' man was a...

Geez fellas 9 posts into a Force thread, and no talk of Honey badgers, McCalman as the 2nd coming, Sharpie the sellout.... I'm a bit disappointed :)

From my armchair, the game just didn't seem close even though the scoreline was for large parts of the game. Reds defence was all over the shop. Some players coming in, some staying in the line, it really lacked cohesion. The back 3 got exposed and didn't seem to be on the same page. You...
