Crusaders v Rebels - Super Rugby Round 11 - 28 April 2013

[blues recovery]

Pretty impressive Rebels other than the love child Phipps. Woodward exceptional , also Vuna and Neville.

 

[James Buchanan]

Good run, but it is easy to run when there are no players in front of you!! Bloody big hole left there that shouldn't have been.

That was sort of my point. Rebels deserved to be punished for leaving a gap that large. Went to sleep before half time and that really isn't good enough.

 

[jermano]

Too many turnovers, fix that and were okay.
Vuna and Woodward are stand outs!!!

Yeah its only taken Hill 5 matches to put Woodward in his right position.

I dunno, Pyle and Neville were pretty handy all half. The loosies weren't bad either.

He might as well be playing 10, the amount of time he is in at first receiver.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

I'm not a big fan of Higgers, but he has had a good game so far.

yeah its really kurtly in disguise

 

[Hugh Jarse]

English has started the 2nd half well with his runs. Not very good at the breakdown though!

And my attitude towards things English is well known from previous posts in the EOYT and RWC threads!

 

[Kaz]

Great start.
Weeks - great trundle.

 

[Kevinsons]

Scrumhalf passing is killing us. Geez I hope the rebels no. 9 is not allowed anywhere near the gold jersey until he stops throwing those terrible passes...

 

[Hugh Jarse]

4 minutes in and Bieber claws back 3 points with a PK from 24 metres out to the right of the posts 18 - 14 TWATF leading.

 

[jermano]

TBH some of the blokes are having great games. Just need to ride out the 80.

Sorry, I'm a bit dim after my ride this morning. Brain under-fuelled.

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Great strike into the wind from Tom Taylor.

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Oh what a tackle Crotty!!!

Rebels looking very good in attack though & try Rebels.

Very good work from JOC (James O'Connor).

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Whitelocks cousin throws the ball in to Whitelock at the back of the lineout. Whitelock takes it cleanly and Whitelock comes in to drive it forward. Whitelock's cousin has it at the back of ths maul and the ball is released to Not Whitlock who pops it up to Whitelock on the burst running one out. He makes 4 metres and passes the ball back in to Whitelock who goes to ground in the tackle. Whitelock pick and drive and it has gone to another Not Whitelock who kicks a dribbly little grubber kick into touch.......

 

[Happy]

Great try Rebels! Come on, you can take this.

 

[Bairdy]

Great passage of play by the Rebels, despite butchering the first try opp.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Shame Beiber misses conversion of his own try.

21 - 19 to Saders.

HRH Carter warming up.

Rebels looking good.
