3-2-1 Brumbies v Force

[GaffaCHinO]

The Force scrum probably went better than expected, but for the Brumbies' the TH side of the scrum was rock solid the entire time Palmer was on the field....

I never said that it wasnt all i said was that the force scrum also didnt get over powered during the game it was evenly matched al night. But for some to surgest Pek scrummed poorly is not accurate or fair. I think if you can hold out the best THP in the counrty and gain parity that that is a very good nights work.

3. Mowen, strong captains game and very Busy
2. Benny A, equal most tackles with carter and mowen and played tighter than last year.
1. Mogg, White, goal kicking excepted

Well, I don't think he had parity...

While the Force scrum held up well, Cowan was dominated by Palmer in their individual battle...

So thats the Front rows fault is it the winger had nothing to do with that?

Yes, but (and the commentary also made mention of this) Palmer's shove on Cowan on that side of the scrum helped give the Brumbies' the platform needed for that try...

The Force will be better off when they have Longbottom starting...

On the other hand I didn't think Ma'afu played too badly for them...

And you actually think clarkie knows what he is on about at scrum time (let alone the rest of the game). That try was a simple laps in the defence from the 10 12 channel and the winger not following his man nothing to do with the scrum.

There was no plat form layed it was a simple thing ofd "shit we cant get the push over lets get it out" and then a nice move from the backs simple.

Sure...

I think most would agree that this was an abortion of a post...

Look at the last scrum. The force smashed the brumbies scrum and they popped up. Very lucky they got the ball out when they did. If it went another second it could of been a penalty to the force.

I thought the force scrum was very good.

Different front rowers too...

But the Force put everything into that scrum as they needed the ball back...

They put on a nice shove as the Brumbies tried to clear the ball...
