Geez I finally saw it. One of the force blokes entered from our side and nothing

Our kicking has been rubbish tonight. Thank god for our breakdown

Thought that was the right call to disallow the try but the ref is being very generous with the force entry to the breakdown. Any further and they will be on our side of the ruck

Don't like hegarty on the wing at all. Nothing to base that on. I just feel his style is better suited at 15 or at 10. I hope he proves me wrong. I actually like shippetley at 13. I think he looks better closer to the play in attack than Ellison but I agree our defense suffers.

I had to Google that. Nice one.

Agree with you about Gill. He was MOM for me. O'Conner was elusive but I am seeing the same thing. Looks to do it all himself and ignores the support. Is that indicative of his whole season? I thought Thompson was back to his abrasive best too. Really got in our faces particularily Higgers.

Queensland absolutely destroyed us in that one. Even when we were up in the first 20 their forwards we're well on top. At least we can stop the talk about finals. I cannot see it from here. My wish list: A win in south Africa Two more wins at home I would call that a good season and...

There is my big tackle. Will something happen now? To late to win but perhaps a bonus point 4 tries.

We have lost it. The heads are down. I want to see a smashing tackle to life things again

Reds taking their opportunities well but geez we are giving them plenty of opportunity to do so Some of the old heads need to settle the team down and start comming forward to tackle rather than backing off all the time.

Well it will certainly help if we can put in a good result in the championship first. Easier to promote a contender than a side that gets their assets handed back to them like last year.

A bit of a loose win for me. I thought the Reds were the better side until horwill went off. After that it just seemed that Reds were one big man short to stop a pretty workman like effort by the rebels. Great game From Supa Sega and Gill kept the Reds in it. On a slightly game related note...

Rebels by 10. Somebody has to say it and usually there are a few. I hope the boys have not dropped their heads. We do look good going forward until we get within 10 m of the try line, however we may as well have witches hats out at the wings for all the attacking ball they get and the defense...

Really frustrating second half as a rebels supporter. Loins came out fin the second half full of life, tackled hard and kept a good line in defence. Our forwards seemed flat and were slow to align. With Timani off we did not seem to have anybody running hard at the line. Better in a he last 10...

If this game was at Canberra then the Brumbies would do us like a bride on her honeymoon but it's not. We have matched and beaten the brumbies consistently in Melbourne and they always look better than us on paper. This year I think we are better in a few. 8 &6 for example. Jones is not far...

P.s. honourable mention to the Post office but it is the precinct for me. Still get fat yak, rugby is telecast so can catch the earlier NZ game and more variety of food. Same early order rules apply though. Still if my usual peeps cannot make a game this year I will trot down the extra 100...

Well readers of my past posts will know that I usually have blind faith in the Rebels but I just think the Tahs match up against us really well. I have to agree with Hans except for the margin. It will be closer than that but not close enough for me to bet on the points spread. Our pack to be...

Well with a nod in the direction of Das for his prediction (but isn't Rebels by 10 your default prediction?) I called us a real chance and leading at the 60. Amazed the Crusaders turned down so many penalties. No respect and the played for it. Scrum did better than I thought and Timani was...

Crusaders must be laughing at that second row. They can now throw it around and not worry about knock ons as their scrum will cream ours and pinch the ball back as often as not. Tony was against Neville last year until Pyle signed over seas. I know he has his faults but the scrum is better with...
