I like that the Brumbies are causing pain in a Tahs thread! :)

Interested to see how a couple of Rebels injected in to a average ex-Force team will perform.

Needs another smiley after the second line otherwise people will think you're trolling.

No, NO! The second line was a serious question. The ex-Force team was good(ish) except for the backs. Now with the JD, Hodge , English, Naivalu and Maddocks I am curious about how much of a difference it will make.

Still no 10, but with Genia directing from 9 they may be a better chance That said, the mighty Rebels should win this game by 50, clearly a side on the up against a struggling Tahs

Debrezcini, behind a good pack and with Genia/Ruru inside him will be a much better proposition than previously, they also have Tayler Adams who needs polish, but does have that certain something about him that makes a great 10, and young Jack McGregor will continue to develop.

I think his problem is that he's flat out counting past the ten Rebels he can manage on his fingers and has missed the full contingent. 16 Rebels in 2017, 10 Force, 2 from other provinces, 2 on their first contract.

I reckon Tahs will win it ugly. As with all matches like this, hope it's promising for both teams and that all players get through it without injury. Hopefully it's more promising for the Rebels but I think those new combinations and patterns will take a while to gel.

Nil all after First break.
Both sides look very rusty so far. Kellaway is playing rubbish.

Very humid and slippery.

7 - 5 half time Tahs lead.

Rebels need to chance their hand a bit

Tahs need to hold onto the ball

Very hot/humid conditions leading to drop balls
