Agree. They are both terrible. Talk about an armchair ride. These 2 and like a few others in the Reds have received that from Brad Thorn. I said it before and I won’t name names but there are better players around the 21-25 age bracket that are better and do deserve a crack. But it’s all...

Seriously Brad Thorn. Hell the hell does Thomas get a reds jersey. There are better 9’s currently playing prem grade at the moment. So bloody wrong. Some of these 9’s can’t even box kick or pass of the ground. Of course they can run. The 3 of them are identical. Just can’t do the simples right...

All reds squad players just been ruled out of club rugby tomorrow

Frampton has struggled to find the form that has made him a potent attacking weapon. I think alot has got to do with the amount of injuries he’s had. Toua slots in at 10 as he’s the only one in the backs with a real sense of game management. Pills struggles a lot with game management hence why...

Can’t argue with you there. 1 coach pulling all the strings down there. They have quality sitting on the bench but you have to scratch your head with his thinking. There’s a couple of boys imo struggling but I won’t go there. See what happens next week but if things don’t change then it’s mad...

UQ were just to slick. Easts unfortunately lack direction and we’re just holding on. When the forwards are challenged up front there’s no plan B. I’ve said it before they can’t win finals with 15 players and it seems like there coach won’t use the bench. They needed a spark. What is the point in...

Yep. Well played Bond. Game management was on par. Never underestimate your reserves as for Easts very confused with the coaching. Especially not using some of the quality you have sitting on the bench. You can’t win premierships with just 15 players. Pointless kicks, no direction and poor game...

Bit confused with the whole fresh reserves as players at Easts were told they had to play 2nds, hence the depth they have. Whether that was lies or QRU policy due to the covid and value for fees but I can definitely tell you that’s what was said down there.

Don’t get the logic of playing colts if he’s in the main squad. Would love to see him playing prems. Big difference boys and hardened club players.

Wasn’t impressed with him. That’s the whole problem here in Aus. We are looking for running xfactor 9’s and then worrying about service. AB’s, Wales, Ireland have 9’s that service and excel in game management and Japan. Here we haven’t focused on 9’s that can service from the base. Jmo

IMO Moses will not be in the game day squad if SM is fit to go. He’s a scratch my head selection as apart from speed he doesn’t offer much else. The reds need a big signing or someone with experience to compliment there youthful squad. Hopefully im wrong.

I heard from a good source that there were a few phone calls made to Vic boys interstate seeing if they would come back and play for the rising.

Sione Tui was never signed by the Rebels. He is now in France playing 2nd or 3rd div pro I believe.

Gee not sure what game you were watching but considering the conditions I say Easts looked pretty good. It was a pure slog fest and both teams should be commended for playing positive rugby. The final rounds will be awesome with finals up for grabs.

Highly unlikely to see this team. I think it’s a make or break season for the Rebels and results and finals will be priority at all costs. 3 reserve backs und 23. Tui? Godard will go I think. I’d be chasing some hardened club players from up north and making the outer guys play club rugby. Not...

He went with QC (Quade Cooper) down to Melbourne but really wasn’t given a look in. I think just on a training agreement.

There are some good young products of Vic rugby playing Prem grade in Brisbane and Sydney atm. Rebels went for a quick fix and burnt a lot of locals on there list, now it becomes interesting if these players depart.

Really. There’s better 10’s running around in premier grade at the moment. I’m more interested to see what they do with the 9’s. Sorovi and Tuttle on the outer. Tuttle won’t play for reds again and sorovi will struggle to get a run in his last year. I’d say BT will elevate SM and abolish MS back...

Not a bad game. All 40 boys pumped up under lights. Good crowd. IMO Nudgee were good, especially without Pasitoa and Vella. A lot to like about them. Speed was unbelievable. BSH were gallant but never looked in control. The 1 and 10 were very good of the back of some good service by 9. I’m not...

WG would be happy to see him go so the ARU can free up some cash to keep him for another 2 years.
