    It would certainnky improve our restarts. He had awesome skills taking a high ball overhead. Not sure where he will fit in our cap. the ARU is not going to cover the players cut as a result if the force farce forever.

    Speaking of kicking, I thought Hodge's kicks for touch on the weekend were very good. Distance and accuracy, particularly the ones to the 5m line

    You think so? I thought we went from little clue to no clue in the backline. If the brumbies were less successful at losing it would have been a very different story. I thought it Was The forwards that did most Of The work digging us out of that. Well that and Hodge taking over the kicking

    Super Rugby Round 12, Rebels v Crusaders - Friday 4 May @ 7:45pm

    Nah, Hodge and Todd yellows overlapped by 8 min. It's why I was so disappointed to be only within 3 at the half. We didn't look like scoring a try expect when the Sanders made a mistake... Even with the extra man. Hopefully we can do better this week.

    Hopefully Kafe and his team can make a difference there but I think it will be at least 5 years before we see a real difference comming through ever if he does sort out those issues.

    they were never down to 13. The second yellow came after the first bloke returned. not that it would have mattered. The Sanders still looked good with 14, 13 may gave just brought parity

    Super Rugby Round 12, Rebels v Crusaders - Friday 4 May @ 7:45pm

    seen a few calls for Sefa to go to 13. That first NRC year the defences were paper thin and he had all his speed back then. I don't see it working but to be honest they might as well try because nothing else has really gone close. It's times like this that I miss Inman. I thought 13 was his...

    Super Rugby Round 12, Rebels v Crusaders - Friday 4 May @ 7:45pm

    Can somebody please explain this. We make about 25 meters through 3 or 4 phases all going forward. We move in to out half and the bloody scrummie kicks it, no chance of recovery. In this instance they score at the other end and follow it up with another off the restart. I'd be pissed off at...

    Super Rugby Round 11, Stormers v Rebels - Friday 27th April @11:05pm

    I thought Hodge sent a couple of brilliant kicks from about the half line to a 5m line out. pity both line outs were lost because of crap throws... still in general I see your point. it's one of my gripes that Aussie kickers seem to want to kick penalties further over the line than down the field.

    Super Rugby Round 11, Stormers v Rebels - Friday 27th April @11:05pm

    That's my point. English was at centre and I haven't been impressed with him there. Sefa did very little today and let's be honest, anybody could have scored those tries. When English went to the wing against the bulls he made good meters several times with twists and side steps. Sefa only tries...

    And Talakai for Ainsley. We had the upper hand once those two were on.

    Having seen English at outside centre a few times now I'd much rather see him on the wing, ahead of Koro and Sefa at the moment. unfortunately I'm not sure we have a good outside centre.

    Yeah, I won't be heartbroken if they give up on these offloads. It's causing more turnovers than any part if our game...except for scrums in this one.

    I hope Koro/Sefa were watching English on the wing on the weekend. With Gus sidesteps and twists he was making extra meters every time. Unlike our Fijians that seem to think the best answer is to run over the top. As for injuries, Ruru is my main worry. I think we can cover the rest.

    Super Rugby Round 10, 2018 - Bulls vs Rebels - Saturday 21 April @ Loftus Versfeld

    Thought Meakes was great against NSW, good against sharks but otherwise I haven't Been that impressed. Filling a space but not at all standing out. I like Hodge at 12 better. As for 13, I don't think we have one but English is the best there attack wise. Need something more in defence though as...

    Is anybody else getting tired of the plague levels of box kicks the Rebels are doing this year? I love Genia's game management but a lot of these box kicks are when as are going forward through phases (if he waits for any phases at all) I don't hate box kicks but there are too many and in most...

    Yes well, I have no defense for Mardo. Wish Fox Sports would just drop him from the team.

    Beaten out wide again. Both losses to teams with firepower out wide and once they figure that out the forwards seem to crumble too. Same thing happened with reds and brumbies but they did not have the clout in the backs to take advantage of it. Worst thing for me was leaving the ground with...

    If the number of rugby fans in the Bars are any indication it should be a good crowd tonight.
