We lost due to our poor decision making. That was by far our best opportunity to get the 7 we needed. If we decide to take a chance and the brumbies defence beats us well good luck to them. We needed to win to cement a finals shot and we needed to be bold. Hated seeing us settle for a bonus point

But the chances of that happening was incredibly low. We needed to press the issue that had already conceded a few penalties in their half if we go for the try we keep them defending if we suck a few more penalties out of them before scoring we potentially gain a man advantage. We took the...

It put us 6 points down and gave us next to no hope of winning the game. We had to take a chance to try and win

Was brain dead. We needed to push for 7 points and put the pressure on so we could be within a kick.

I thought we were poor. Kicked aimlessly poor game management the decision to take the shot with 9 minutes to go was a terrible call

Another crap performance. Poor game management. Taking the shot with 9 minutes to go was brain dead rugby. If we went for the try we could of then taken the shot when we won the scrum penalty

It’s pathetic none of the extended squad are having a run this week

Reds have the perfect storm this year of being the best side in it and the Lions and Broncos struggling. Helps get more of the fair weather fans to watch them

It is but there is no suggestion of the Tahs not being loyal to him. He should stay and represent his state.

No more out there check the wallabies squad for RV boys there. We need to attract and keep our own players over recruiting blokes.

He was sacked for king hitting a team mate. While I think out development of our backs is poor this bloke has nobody to blame but himself for no longer being at the Rebels. I was gutted when the news broke as you knew he would be shown the door. I watched him play for Samoa at the under 20s and...

That’s not what I was saying. We need to establish some level of continuity in our squad and moving forward our best chance of doing that is by promoting locals and building the squad around them and then only recruit on a needs basis

Yeah look I would take what Paisami says with a grain of salt. While I think there is some truth in it he seriously contributed to his time in Melbourne coming to an end. It’s a shame though as I would love to see him back. Also no backs look good at Melbourne so that’s where I agree that it is...

How I see it is we are a bigger chance of getting our lads to stay if we give them a chance and game time then the imports. What we need is continuity

The money is always there that’s not how the Rebels are competing. You sell a boy from Melbourne the opportunity to stay and win a comp in Melbourne representing his city. All our players will eventually leave for overseas but if the achieve more here first and have success in Melbourne they...

No doubt the treatment of Sione helped make Moses mind up The fact that Sione is now talked about as a possible test centre for Scotland hurts as we lack depth in the midfield and both Paisami and Sione were local boys A lot left the pathways here last year do the cancellation of the dewar...

But that’s because both those states would produce enough pro players for more than two squads it’s impossible for them to keep them all. That is not the case for us. Limited opportunity is the reason we need a full home and away season next year, more games will force you to use more players...

So what happens with the Rebels extended squad. It was me that we don’t want them playing Dewar but does that mean they won’t play any rugby until the end of the TT? If so that is terrible

I think it will I know a lot of kiwis refuse to watch super rugby au but then again they all have stan and watch their comp so probably won’t see the FTA numbers spike

Look you can’t knock a guy putting his family first if that is the case but we need to start keeping local juniors. We can’t keep being a place blow ins come to play for one or two years before leaving
