    Reds v Force pre-season trial. 5 Feb.

    Also 25m pass under pressure that looked completely natural and comfortable.

    Like what I'm seeing of Flook as well.

    Reds v Force pre-season trial. 5 Feb.

    Sure, it's a trial. Who actually IS Tauakipulu - don't recognise him at all. I thought we started more than just our bench front row.

    Reds v Force pre-season trial. 5 Feb.

    That kick to the line in traffic was top drawer.

    Reds v Force pre-season trial. 5 Feb.

    Asiata improving but needs to keep at it in the line out. Happy with what we've seen from Tualima, Flook is looking like the prospect that he should. Force have the front row over us in that first half. Our pack needs to be tighter at the ruck. Gee it's good to be back watching rugger.

    Reds 2022

    Wam, maaaaate. Jock has been a star for a couple of years already. He doesn't have the Petaia wow factor but we will miss he organisation for certain.

    Reds 2022

    I don't think we are in dire straits. Our 10 depth is OK, and we have talent being developed through Creighton and Lynagh. Still, life would be interesting if JOC (James O'Connor) is out for any period. Which makes the Jock scenario very interesting. Bring on the season.

    The Moana Pasifika Franchise

    I hear you RN. I'm just not sure sure what combinations get any real practice here - certainly not D. Nor attack really. It's a bit aof a training park day for the Chiefs so a minor chance to run combinations in action, not much better than the training park though. Look it's just one trial in...

    Waratahs 2022

    Not really in SA. Each of the SA franchises came from well established representative states ("Province" in SA means basically the same as "State" in Aus). Deals were done over time between non-Super provinces and the franchises as talent feeders, but they continued to play each other in Curry Cup.

    The Moana Pasifika Franchise

    Strangely enough "may as well just call it "The Southern Kings" "has only 8.5% of the vote. Can only wish MP (Moana Pasifika) all the best and fingers crossed that big leaps are in front of them.

    The Moana Pasifika Franchise

    I am unconvinced that a trial with that score line will have achieved a whole lot for MP (Moana Pasifika).

    Australian Rugby / RA

    And I was just about to weigh in on the line out throws. Damn! Reckon RA have been much much improved over the last couple of years. I personally feel they missed an opportunity to go full monty domestic comp followed by TT, but I don't think I'm in the majority. Broadcast deal is a huge step...

    Reds 2022

    Hey RR. I wasn't really talking about depth, more about the longer term development of an out and out 10. I haven't seen Jock doubling into the 10 role yet, but definitely I am impressed with his organisation skills. I think that utility role gives him a second life in pro rugby and I hope he...

    Reds 2022

    Not a distortion at all, think we are on the same thread. JOC (James O'Connor) had a desire to 10 much younger if I recall correctly - some joshing between Wuade and JOC (James O'Connor). The fact he needed to slot there, apparently unintended, speaks to our 10 development. He has been great. It is an interesting role to...

    Reds 2022

    I think this is a huge turnaround, since roughly when Thorn started his involvement with the developing squad and it has continued since. Massive value to the Reds (and Aus rugby). BUT, if the effectiveness of this development is to be tested by players transitioning successfully to Super in...

    Super Rugby 2022

    Not just potentially. It has actually been argued that way. It's a different thread though, back to Super...
