NSW Waratahs v Fijian Drua - Fri 28 Feb 2025 7:30pm Allianz Stadium

[cyclopath]

Tahs have feet for hands so far. Terrible.

 

[Not a Doctor]

LET EM PLAY REF. These 50/50s are BS

 

[Heavyd]

Neck Gordon. He’s past it.

 

[LeCheese]

Drua shorts sponsor is a bit unfortunate..

The spelling of ‘FLICK’ looks a bit different from afar given the fold in the pants

I also enjoy it's for a 'washroom hygiene' company and smack bang over the Russell Coight

 

[Major Tom]

If it was a ruck why was Tupou playing the ball?

Tackled. Clean out occurred, Tupou popped the ball back. Drua player never got back onside in the first place. That’s how I saw it. I’ll watch it again later.

 

[Wilson]

How'd the weather down there? Handling is awful from the tahs

 

[Micheal]

We’re not being direct enough. Not sure why we’re trying to go coast to coast against the Fijians. They’re rushing up and the pressure is leading to dropsies.

Hot muggy day but fine for pros. It’s not good enough.

 

[Micheal]

With Bell / Tupou / Leota / Gleeson / Miles I’d really prefer if the game plane was a bit more bish bash bosh at this stage.

 

[Derpus]

Poreckis judgment at the back of the maul is so shit.

 

[Micheal]

After this performance it seems the Waratahs might have to schedule their first lineout practice of the season next week?

 

[cyclopath]

Tactically very poor from the Tahs so far. Squandering good possession and field position repeatedly.

 

[Major Tom]

Been impressed with O’Donnell. He looks comfortable at this level.

 

[Wilson]

This is a good contest so far, but a big part of that is the tahs poor red zone attack. Look aimless once they get into the 22 and can't hold the ball more than a few phases. Need to improve that conversion rate before they wear themselves out for little return.

 

[Wilson]

They should really just start taking the 3, punish the Drua's discipline and take their poor hands out of the equation

 

[Micheal]

Miles has got to be a shoe in for Dismals Airport XV. That carry was pathetic

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Miles making up for the error. Well done.

 

[Wilson]

Good work from Jorgo there

 

[cyclopath]

Jorgo made that. Good hustle.

 

[Micheal]

Despite the scrappiness, quite an enjoyable game to watch imo
