I thought Rory O'Connor did well last week. It looks like he's getting a decent audition.

I'd like to see McGregor and Goddard get some time on the field together.

So, who will I see there today? Looking forward to some decent Rugby in my own backyard.

 

[Warpath]

7-7 10 minutes gone

Nice day for some Rugby. Beer tent 10m to my right.

Even on Telly you can tell Quins is an awful place to watch rugby.

Tupai has been in everything. McGregor has been quality too.

No, they don't stream the Broadcast games.

Fox Sports 1 if you can find a channel stream.

Quality contest at the mo.

The 7 pros with lots of youngsters (pro and ammo) is balancing out the full amateur but "all men" nicely.

A 3pm game is always broadcast on the Saturday and Sunday on Fox Sports, the others get live streamed on the website.

Problem is they advertise the streaming service as if they get all the games live rather than the 2 a weekend live and them all on demand ~48-72 hours (ha!) later.

33-19 to Drua, 20 mins left.

 

[Highlander35]

Fuck me, brilliant stuff from the Drua. Kicking and handling a class above.

Fiji starting to turn it on, 40-19, i thought their fitness may have been an issue, but in the last two weeks they've come home stronger then their Aussie opposition

 

[Highlander35]

Rising young bodies starting to feeling the physicality. Good lessons being learned here.

45-24 FINAL SCORE to Drua..well done.

 

[Highlander35]

Good show from the Drua, very much hitting their stride at this stage of the comp.

I'd complain about the handling and defensive errors, but given it "looks like" maybe 6, at best, of today's side will be in the Rebels best 23 next season, I'm pretty happy with that performance.
