    Reds 2023

    I'm clearly seeing more than you are with with Lawson. Can't explain our differences there. There will be few who would suggest I am not a supporter of Jock, but with both Jock and Hamish right now, they are not promising game playing 10 back-ups, let alone outright 10. Jock might get there, but...

    Reds 2023

    You've missed a couple of key flyhalf traits:- long cut out pass both sides, willing to position flat (when it's needed), able to read a game for others (not just yourself), and tactically able to direct the attack through the back line. I don't think those things, at this stage, make Paisami a...

    Reds 2023

    We should continue to invest in Lawson at Flyhalf and we have Lynagh sitting behind that - will he be ready for the bench in 2023? Probably not. Campbell is not proving to be the 15/10 playmaker we had hoped for (2 passes in the Chiefs game). I think Flook is looking good and I'd love to see a...

    Reds vs Chiefs, 7:45pm Friday, April 29 2022 @Suncorp Stadium

    Am I right that the three back reserves did not get game time? IE Jeans, Aubry and Grealy. That was a tight game to not empty the bench. I'd guess you leave the reserve half back alone if Tate is on fire, and he was.

    Reds vs Chiefs, 7:45pm Friday, April 29 2022 @Suncorp Stadium

    Excessively stated but maybe there is something in it. There are complaints about Lawson and his play, his kicking. Guarantee he is expressly following orders. There is something in this this kicking battle, working not just from Lawson, but Tate, Grealy, Jock, hell even Daugunu. Something...

    I’m not sure Jock will work there effectively, but you’re right. It’s time for the test. We need a playmaker in this game. Now.

    When he learns to throw straight he might even be great.

    Managed to pick up the work member tickets for tonight. Not sure the Chiefs would have been the game I chose, but what the hell. Let's go Reds. What does everyone recommend for a feed up Caxton St way before the game. Mrs Dru is with me so I need to make a night of it.

    Hurricanes v Reds Sat 23rd April

    A TT comp with Aus teams boiled down in the "shrink to greatness" mould kills Aus professional rugby. The only way this can be missed is a Kiwi-centric "don't give a fuck" position.

    Wallabies 2023

    He goes one arm/hand at a time as they other stays in the tackle. Happens as he transitions his body position from the tackle to standing in the Ruck. Some refs are happy but not Gus.
