Rd 13: Rebels v Reds @ Melbourne 10/5/19 7.45 pm

[oztimmay]

The exact reason why I packed the big coat, hoodie, and beanie for tonight.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Reds to win, Rebels to fold as a franchise.

 

[Finsbury Girl]

Farking Victorian weather, kick them out of the Federation I say.

Well I think our boys will like the ball up the jumper.

QLD by 50.

 

[Rebels3]

I’ve headed out early for a few beers pregame. Can confirm it’s wet, cold and windy

Usual day in Melbourne then

Usual day in Melbourne then

Even by late autumn melbourne standards, today's weather is shithouse!

 

[Adam84]

You’re quoting yourself?

Anyway, back to the game, logic for Blyths promotion was to strengthen the lineout, LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) to the bench so Wright and ASY (Angus Scott-Young) can attempt to slow down Rebels ball and disrupt Genia. disrupt Genia and beat the Rebels. Simple really :/

Lineout plan going well so far

 

[Shaker]

Reds asserting the set piece dominance early. Thats what we need

 

[Shaker]

Never takes his eyes off the ball but its unrealistic. Kidding me.

Edit: Was miles early. My bad.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Disappointing.

We can beat these muppets.

 

[gel]

throw it in straight ffs

 

[Adam84]

Ref penalises for incorrect truck and trailer at the lineout, they do exact same thing next lineout and it isn’t a penalty.. officiating these rolling mails is a painful exercise to watch

 

[Strewthcobber]

Isaac! What a try

 

[Adam84]

Playing beyond his years young Lucas

 

[Shaker]

Lucas changing the game already.

 

[Shaker]

Angus Gardner must have a card bonus or something.

 

[Up the Guts]

Tupou back to his best that half. A must in the Wallaby 23. A lot of Damien McKenzie in Isaac Lucas, fantastic skillset.

 

[TSR]

But a better defender

 

[Strewthcobber]

Reds have the weirdest combination of both being the worst and most dangerous backs in the comp all at the same time

 

[Ignoto]

No idea why, but it shits me to no end seeing Quade and Hodge being more concerned. About ripping the ball than making a tackle.
