Rd 12: Reds v Sunwolves, Lang Park, 3/5/19 @ 7:45pm

[dru]

Hoopert and Tupou not their best games. I'd be thinking about the Smith boys.

Stewart a bit hit and miss. Some really good stuff but some defensive positioning lapses too.

Proving me wrong! Try to Tupou.

 

[TSR]

Important try.

 

[Adam84]

not so

sure, which game has he played better in do you think?

he's not quick enough, he doesn't go through the gap and he gets isolated. He cant get involved in the tight play. Not his best game, not his worst game. Just how he plays. Every game.

If Hayden Parker is looking for a job and has no offers I think the Kings would do well to sign him. They have signed Johnny Sexton's brother and are looking to get Catrakilis as well.

 

[KevinO]

Worst TMO interference of the season, tackle started below the neck and should never be a card.

Firstly we weren’t discussing his talent, just comparing to other performances this year.
I reckon it’s probably his best game this year, if you can’t name another game I’ll probably stick with that opinion

 

[Ulrich]

Seems like I called it!

Reds absolutely have to get the BP now. About 60 mins against 14 men in total.

 

[TSR]

Clear yellow for mine.

He is paying a heavy price for the professional foul, but the decisions have been spot on.

fine then

Clearly, based on your Genia cooper comment

IT WAS JUST A HARMLESS GAG, JESUS, WFT

 

[TSR]

Sunwolves look like they have decided not to worry about trying to play within the rules now.

Edit: but Reds keeping them in it.

 

[Rebelsfan]

and for the record, I am supporting the Reds to win , despite my comments about Thorn and Higgers

I apologies for calling it like I see it..

No dog fight here

 

[Adam84]

Harry Hoopert is racking up decent minutes this seasons, playing better then I expected for a 20yr old

 

[Strewthcobber]

Who is the Reds forwards coach and could they please perhaps put a little work into the old 5m rolling maul during the week?

Thought he started slow and and a little clumsy, but he seems to "own" his input and has been growing during the game. Bloody good player for his age.

Scrummaging needs work, and he could use an extra 5kg. But he plays well in the loose and strong over the ball

Fun police out in force. Spread your cheer elsewhere.

Guy in blue t shirt standing behind thorn in his team chat at half time. Bo Hanson. I've worked with him in school rowing about adecade ago when he was starting off. Worked with the coaching groups (40+) in leadership development, communication styles, etc etc. Amazing. Reds hired him purely to work with Brad to help him become a better communicator. 4 time olympian rower, 3 time olympic medalist. International professional coach basically. Wouldn't be cheap!
