I also found the refereeing of the breakdown pretty inconsistent. Not biased either way, but each time he blew the whistle at the breakdown I was unsure which way the penalty would go. It had a negative impact on the game IMO.

Brumbies deserve credit for the defensive effort. They came off the line like their lives depended on it and constantly shut down the Force attack, which as usual is headless chook stuff followed up by a poor kick and the odd piece of individual brillance line break. In fact, the Brumbies...

Good win to the Stormers. I tipped them because I thought they would be hungrier than the Blues and I just have this recurring wonder when the Blues will revert to their inconsistent ways. To be fair to the Blues, they were better than that, the Stormers just had the momentum at the right end of...

Yet only managed to win by one lucky try from Ryan Cross. No doubt the Tahs were better, the fact that they failed to translate this into dominance is the heart of the problem. Talking about defeating yourself with your own logic. Reading between the lines, what he is saying is the Tahs...

Agreed, I had hoped Whites appointment would be the catalyst for change, but it is increasingly worryingly looking like plastering over the cracks.

I tipped the Stormers, partly because at this time of the year I need a few upsets to climb the ladder, but also because the Stormers will be desparate to win this. Another loss now and their season is starting to loook shaky. I'm also tipping it's time for a blues brain explosion back to...

The only problem with this statement, is many people don't view the Brumbies culture as "excellent". Successful, yes, excellent culture? Maybe they just had enough of the best players to succeed? Either way, this move may be the one where in 20 years time while reading Jake Whites...

Agreed TBH, I was up and down about it, but now it has dragged on so long I almost don't care.

They've been out for weeks, not months. And plus, it's only the Lions........

How do you know Cyclo has a pretty dick?????

Thats what I was thinking too, and then it has taken so freaking long I started to swing away from the Force again. Hope your right.

Matt Hodgson might be a 7, but he has played enough 6 to be considered ahead of guys like Kimlin, Mowen and Dennis. I would take a quality backrower playing slightly out of position over a less talented backrower playing in position any day.

I read the thread and thought it would be a coach trying to gee his team up, having listened that was brutal, but also massively unprofessional. I don't mean to say he was wrong, and hopefully it might be the wakeup call the Brumbies need, but he won't coach higher than first grade again in...

If the force can knick it next week they will be nearly two games clear of the Brumbies. Though thats nothing to be proud of really.

Valentine was woeful, Phibbs should be starting every game.

Giteau looks like someone has wiped a stinkfinger on his top lip when having to give a losing captains interview.

Thanks Brums and Chiefs, way to finger my tipping.

See the difference, Lions forwards actuallu carry the ball into traffic, the Brumbies forwards just shovel it on and leave it up to McCabe and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) to take the ball into contact.

Try Lions

Knock on from Chis, he is setting the game alight tonight.
