Battle of the Blood Red: Lions v Queensland Reds 8th June 2013

[ACR]

How did that ball spill out the ruck? Physics is funny sometimes..

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Crikey, there will be some puffed boys sucking in the big ones at Oranges.

Hectic pace.

That scrum was solid, took the hit and push and went nowhere before collapsing.

Then a Reds turnover next ruck, Taps clears.

 

[Bullrush]

Reds very lucky with that 2nd scrum....shud have been penalised

 

[Pedrolicus]

That was not fair, that should have gone against the ball carrier. Reds unlucky..

 

[Ash]

Hmmm, thought that penalty went the wrong way, should have been for holding on.

Dodgy call there Taps didn't make that tackle. Should have been a penalty to the Reds.

 

[Ash]

Replay showed he didn't release, fair enough.

Indeed he wasnt a tackler at all (& even if he wasnt I wouldnt call what he did holding on, unless someone thinks brushing across someone constitutes "holding on"). I thought it was a clear case of pilfer opportunity there, opportunity taken. I was waiting for the Lions to get pinged for hanging on or for Reds to have the ball back on their side.

Take it to the line QC (Quade Cooper)!!! Sick of kicking

 

[No4918]

Can we keep Morahan please? Force owe us a favour.

 

[Pedrolicus]

Reds playing really exciting rugby. Lions dominating the scrum and reds slightly ahead everywhere else. If reds keep the tempo up and somehow avoid scrummaging in their own half they have a great chance.

Hope Robbie is watching this and makes a big note in his play book, RUN THE BALL! The lions do not like running their guts out! Also if this fittest, fastest back row, Hooper, Gill, Mowem and Dennis will have a field day with them!

 

[ACR]

Fun game of rugby to watch. A shame Cooper's not willing to play himself into a Wallabies jersey though. He's just waiting till Deans leaves.

Anyone else think its amusing that JOC (James O'Connor) is advertising sleeping tablets. He has no trouble sleeping he has trouble waking up on time.

 

[FilthRugby]

I think tonight has highlighted the obvious. How the Lions are better in two areas. Set pieces and kicking. Scrums in particular. However, a good effort from Queensland, Moz particularly has been playing well. Good to see Jono Owen and Sam Denny get a run.

Go you Reds!
