Brumbies v Reds Rd 14 Sat 17th May @ GIO Stadium 7.35pm AEST

[Ignoto]

Brumbies tacklers have never had a clear release. Constantly hold onto the tackled player and use their momentum to get up over the ball.

I think we’re looking too much into it. What was the exact question to begin with? He did play league for the Bears, his grandfather did as well. His Dad coaches a League side… he’s allowed to say he enjoys the sport.

We also need to remember the grubby fingers of Managers are all over this. Wright was the same then a few days later a 3 year contract in Rugby. If it got him a bit more $$ then good luck to them it is a job.

completely agree -it just shits me. the player wage inflation that jail rugby costs our game with games such as these must be immense.

Paisami needs to learn to stay down when he get his head pounded. Wright absolutely had head on head with that upright tackle

 

[Crashy]

With all these injuries, the Reds are really being able to develop talent - just like the Tahs last year with the front row issues.
Australian rugby doesnt have a development issue - its a retention and $ issue. ( plus rugby league vultures). fluffybunnys

Has been a few headshots in the game. The will never pick them all up. It's hit and miss

McReight is getting close to his best after a fairly extended recovery. Has been in everything this week after stepping it up last week.

Hey Shiggins glad you're watching the game.

You'll see the Fraser is playing like a true fetcher. Won the ball constantly unlike Tizzano who just let's the blokes infront of him do all the work at a mail only to fall over the line!

Interesting topic to discuss. I've never said tizzano is a pilferer at all and I've said the opposite every time. He doesn't get many and never has. Stewart gets more and he's a centre. It's not his game. He just tackles hard and doesn't miss. Scored a few trys this year as well. I don't miss any Aussie games.

 

[Wilson]

Shocking pass from Campbell

 

[Aussie D]

Looks like McReight got injured in the last bit of play

 

[Wilson]

De Lutiis not looking well

Brumbies can find space for fun once they get past 12. Very passive defence on the edges.

Don’t think against Wright and Toole that’s the way.

 

[Crashy]

any idea which injured players the Reds get back next weekend?

lol good one.

They would never enlighten us with details.

 

[Shiggins]

Awwww! Reds discipline!

That rounds out a full 15 of injured players now.

 

[Sword of Justice]

Really sick of watching us play like this. Control territory, possession and the gain line but still lose. Can’t blame injuries when that happens - all tactical. So predictable via the backs and constantly putting ourselves under pressure.
