Brumbies vs Lions @ Canberra - 2011R13

[Ali's Choice]

That was a pretty tough forward pass call against the Lions who were deep in attack.

 

[ChargerWA]

Knock on from Chis, he is setting the game alight tonight.

 

[ChargerWA]

Try Lions

 

[cyclopath]

Seriously, is this all the Brumbies have in attack - just awful. A lot of very unsympathetic passes in the backs - behind and above the players.
And now the Lions go straight through the middle and in under the posts again. Brumbies are gooooonnnnnee.

 

[minorbird]

This is horrible from the Brumbies. Absolutely terrible.

 

[Sandpit Fan]

Yep, can't see the ponies pulling this one out of the fire. Blatant fwd pass in the leadup, but otherwise a well worked try.

Basic Skills...............what is that?

This Brumbies team are a complete embarrassment.
They would have to be the most characterless side in the Super 15. Even the Rebels play with more ticker.
My 7 year olds side have a better skillset. Basic catch and pass, straight running with support in depth is completely lacking. Have any of the Brumbies ever been coached in the basics of the game when they were children?
On this form Stephen Moore would be the only Wallaby selection.
Completely outclassed by the Lions at home in Canberra FFS- what a joke

 

[Ali's Choice]

The Lions were paying $7 to win this game head to head, the Brumbies $1.09. Not saying the Brumbies still can't win, but they've left it late to stamp their dominance against a very green Lions team.

thanks for ruining our year fagan

 

[ChargerWA]

See the difference, Lions forwards actuallu carry the ball into traffic, the Brumbies forwards just shovel it on and leave it up to McCabe and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) to take the ball into contact.

brumbies look like a team without a coach, oh wait....

 

[Gagger]

Tony Rea subs Stephen Moore for doing "far too much yawnion type stuff" and not kicking on the 5th

 

[minorbird]

And on cue, we get the Edmonds kick through.

 

[cyclopath]

I know it is a tired subject, but is there any lock in Super Rugby with a lower power to weight ration in carrying the ball than Chisolm? He actually starts to fall before the tackler lays a hand on him. It's like a body-snatcher switched from Sharpe circa 2007 to Chisolm. Just amazingly ineffective.

 

[Tangawizi]

I wouldn't be at all surprised if some Brumbies fans "misplaced" their membership cards tonight. And their wallets, and mobile phones, and keys....

The only way to deal with a performance like this is to get drunk enough to erase all memory of the events of the night.

 

[cyclopath]

Late try to Brumbies basically initiated by Gits with some individual flair. Too little, way too late.

 

[Chauncey]

player power!!!!!!................ye right. Good one guys.
The players can now take ownership and responsibility for this season if they dare. Dump the coach and then display the finery of a class outfit!
Its like a turd wrapped in newspaper, set alight and left on your doorstep.

 

[GC]

Do the Tahs still have to play the Brumbies again? That should be fun

 

[ChargerWA]

Thanks Brums and Chiefs, way to finger my tipping.

 

[louie]
