Highlanders v Reds Good Friday 29th March

[qwerty51]

Yep hard done by there I reckon. Nonu charged into the ruck off his feet as well.

 

[RoffsChoice]

Reds may get a team yellow.

 

[Set piece magic]

weak defense Reds

 

[qwerty51]

Reds defence is too passive atm, need to start winning collisions to slow their ball down.

Look at that D from the centre scrum, no one moved up.

 

[qwerty51]

That is not obstruction, the defender didn't even attempt a tackle.

Fuck Gill is good.

 

[JSRF10]

Gill is a star in the making, really impressed with him.

Highlanders just don't look interested tonight, they need to up the intensity in defence. That try was too easy for the Reds

 

[Set piece magic]

Good refereeing there, Fainga'a warning after giving away two pens..

 

[qwerty51]

That Quade attempt on Nonu was pathetic

 

[Ignoto]

Getting real sick and tired of seeing the highlanders fly off their feet from the side into the ruck.

 

[Set piece magic]

We need a bonus point and PD from this game. SHould be up by more really

You may be correct: without a replay I'm not preapred to call it.
But
QC (Quade Cooper) stopped running and threw his head back - so he thought it was and he let the ref know.
No other result was ever going to eventuate after that.

Is throwing straight to a lineout still a rule? 2 throws from stand in hooker let go. Reds look the goods. Still a lot of hard work needed though.

 

[something]

Reds playing well, there worst enemy tonight has been themselves/the ref (few dodgy calls imo). Highlanders dont look to be too challenging.

QC (Quade Cooper) playing well, loved hanson's try thought it was hilarious.

Really hoping for the BP & The win tonight. Lets see what the highlanders bring second half. Hopefully they CANT lift their game

 

[The Red Baron]

Cracker of a game so far, both teams are showing good intent with the ball. Ant is frustrating me though, he's given away a few penalties for being offside.

Gill is a freak. The guy is everywhere.

Reds must have backed themselves on the margin - they want to keep letting them back in

 

[Ruggo]

Every time Hose Gear gets the ball in hand you just want to shit a brick. Friggin' dangerous every time.

 

[Ash]

Agreed with the comms that the Gill penalty was a bit of a square up for that Genia knock on he didn't call about 1 min earlier. Think the ref has been OK so far, controlled the game well. Some interesting ruck calls, but they've pretty much been marginal.

Hopefully the Reds keep this up in the second half, but I suspect that the Clan will come back with plenty.

 

[redveincheese]

Reds dominant at the breakdown and in attack.Keep it up and Cooper can do the rest.

 

[Ash]

Gill off at half time, Buttler on. Will hurt the Reds at ruck time.

 

[Ash]

Marginal ball forward to Holmes from Cooper 5m out. Was just forward. Reds look dangerous.
