Very disappointing effort from the Reds, just didn't turn up, but well done to the Force. I wonder what changes for next week?

Good effort so far in Adelaide by the young Aussies with victories over England and Samoa in pool play so far...

Agree Naza, and throw as many forward attacks at the 10-12 channel as possible.

Re: Shawn Mackay hit by car As with everyone in OZ I trust this young man makes a speeedy and complete recovery.

Some reasonably tight games with Easts up over Uni and Gps beating Sunnybank by a point. Souths got over Norths in a bit of a surprise to me but the big one was a 67-6 win to Brothers over Sunny Coast! I see Crofty scored a couple of times.. His influence at Crosby Park will be significant this...

I'm sure I've seen variations of this debate before but it is an interesting one. A slight digression but how is it that so many youngsters are being blooded in league and seemingly coping with it?

Precisely..Genia suspended and Vaalu and Hynes both out injured. As it is Mooney had to call up McKibben from the Academy and play Lucas injured, so naivety or necessity...? Perhaps the only other starting combo that might have been worth a go would have been Fetoai at 13 and Digby on one wing...

Reds outplayed, well done to the Chiefs. Gee they are a confident side in attack, really back themselves. Some aimless kicking from the Reds really played into their hands and the defence looked woeful at times. At least we got the bonus point and I thought McKibben and Davies did well for new...

I hope the intensity of the Reds hasn't diminished because of the week off. Patience and a superior forward game in the set piece might be the priority this week as ball retention will be key. Will be a tough one and any side that can put on as many points as the Chiefs did last week will be...

Was anyone there? This result surprised the hell out of me. Given Sydney Uni's dominance over Sunnybank the year before I didn't give Easts much of a chance. Old adage, a champion team as opposed to a team of champions applies here as they have close to the smallest rep numbers of any Brissy...

Gee, Fitzpatrick must be rated if they are considering him at openside, but why Robinson wouldn't be an automatic selection with Waugh injured I don't know? Is it time to consider Coridas for a bench role? On paper the Blues pack looks to be the superior and I wonder how much Baxter, and maybe...

Wouldnt be happy if I were a Tahs fan. Solid enough forward pack, but they seem to lack imagination, flair and confidence when in a position to do sometihing. Carter was the best of the backs and Robinson can hold his head high.

IWell I'm glad I was proved wrong, and hear Easts got up. Anyone watch the game?

I fear that the curtain raiser might disappoint. Sydney Uni will probably win in a canter although I hope I'm wrong. For Easts Andrew Walker is at 10 and a lot will hinge on his form. Curtis Franks, the half played off the bench for the Qld B side, but apart from those two there is no one of...

Nick, If your on propwatch, look out for James Slipper from Qld. He is the real deal but may take a few years.

Settle Lindy, settle.

As one who hangs around the periphery I appreciate the opportunity to have decent rugby conversation with knowlegable posters. Thanks Scarfy & Co, all improvements highly applauded. I am missing LG though, and look forward to his reports on Fitzy's debut. Talent spotter extrodinaire!

Not sure that Cooper or O'Connor has been subject to quite the same level of allegation as Hunt?

Would be perfect!!
