CAS Rugby 2022

[Running_rugby_1954]

Why are the wingers defending at the 10 channel from scrums?

It is a weird choice.

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

CAS breakdown defence looking sloppy now CHS find space in close. attacking inside the 22.

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

All a bit sloppy 0 - 0

Boys probably pretty tired after Tuesday.

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

Scrum penalty to CHS - they are attacking just outside the 22.

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

Halatokoua with a great steal to save the day. CAS Penalty.

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

A great tip pass by Hooper to a soft carry by Sayoun sees the ball turned over.

CHS scrum mid field.

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

CAS scrum struggling against CHS scrum.

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

Great turnover Barker hooker - Edwards?

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

Great maul - held up CHS ball - Preketes out there early along with livingstone.

Two Knox kids taken off...

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

Scrum looked better. Kicked down field.

Error Barker fullback. A tough bounce.

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

ugh.. the Knox winger loses the ball after a good backline play. CHS on the attack.

Halftime.

0 - 0

Best player on ground for CAS - I would say Phillipson? No real standouts.

Forwards have no ascendancy - backs going sideways.

CAS with most the ball - can't score.

 

[Snort]

No score, but CHS had the better of that half. If I were the CAS coaches, I'd be furious. Half time message: forwards, you are forwards. Do your job! Stay out of the backline, don't throw dumb passes, don't let the CHS backs waltz past you.

CAS needs to tighten up in the second half, build some phases and let the backs have a crack with some decent possession.

 

[Snort]

McLeod makes a great bust, then unaccountably hurls the ball forward when tackled.

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

Knox 10 off now too.

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

Saunders throws the ball over the sideline.

 

[Snort]

Where are the leaders in this CAS side? Someone needs to take control out there - it's a mess!

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

Great effort for a charge down from Hooper. Nearly leads to points.

 

[Snort]

And CHS scores on an intercept.

 

[Running_rugby_1954]

Barker 15 gifts first points of the day to CHS 14.

CHS winning 7 - 0

 

[Snort]

7-0, and you can't say it's an unfair scoreline.
