Palu....

Had he managed to catch one tonight, or even bend a line?

 

[gone]

Simmons useless

Standard Simmons penalty

Of the 3 forwards most under scrunity from the last match - Carter, Fardy, Palu..........

I would say that only Fardy is showing great improvement so far........... Palu is having a shocker, and Carter has just been a bit meh..............

Edit: Palu puts in a strong tackle after I write that...........

 

[Ash]

Simmons!

Actually, his lifters did that as much as he did. Sigh.

 

[AngrySeahorse]

The amount of penalties being called in Rugby for just regular hard tackles is making me lose my faith in humanity.

Very impressed with Slipper so far.

And now Simmons does something stupid.

 

[ChargerWA]

I'm convinced Simmons was dropped on his head at birth. Nothing else would explain giving away the same penalty every fucking week.

 

[Pedrolicus]

The problem with Palu being the size he is, is that he lacks a smaller man's inherent fear of dropping a piece of soap.

 

[Pedrolicus]

THAT'S NOT RUGBY!

 

[The Red Baron]

I'm liking the physical edge the piggies have bought so far, however it is the usual suspects giving away silly penalties again!

 

[ChargerWA]

We're lucky to be this close, despite SA not yet playing any rugby.

Wobs scrum very respectable this time round. Boks missing alberts' grunt

 

[The Red Baron]

Question for our Perth folk - how stiff is the breeze out that way currently? We are getting smoked in the territorial kicking, and I'm wondering if it is our players or the wind.

I thought I heard the commentators say we were playing into the wind..........

Edit: Clarkie just confirmed that..........

Fox commentators have repeatedly said the wind was with the Boks

The boks play their rugby at the right end of the paddock.

 

[The Rant]

Boks are doing their best to make this a shit game to watch. Feel like Im watching the 2007 final.

Your boys still have our measure there though.

Thanks, just thought I'd let you know I'm not watching fox. Apology accepted.
