Rebels v Cheetahs - Round 4 - Super Rugby 2012

[Dumbledore]

Huxley?

Cheetahs by 5.

 

[Sir Arthur Higgins]

ouch. not good. biggest loss is having to put the hux at 15.

couldn't we have put phipps at 9 and king richard at 15? he was pretty solid out of there last year....certainly better than julian.

Who was the genius that asked to play this game during the F1? There was a slot on Friday 7:30...

Was the venue free or was the A league plaing that night?

 

[qwerty51]

Do the Victory play there? They were on at 8:00 Friday

Yes.

I've got no problem with the timing, should be good fun. And what sort of good rugger folk are going to go along to the F1 anyway?

 

[qwerty51]

Fair enough never watched an A league game thought the Heart and Storm only play there

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Willie Le Roux - on fire & by extension saving my fantasy team (I have beale starting...).

Loved the Rebels maul though.

 

[lily]

Huxley. Why? The dude is so tackle shy.

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Tough one for Huxley there, looking right into the sun, wobbly ball.

If I were the Cheetahs I'd keep bombing it into the sun. Though they look good running it too. Either way things looking good early for the Cheetahs, but they did last time against the Brumbies. If Cheetahs learn to play full 80min Rugby they'd do quite a few upset wins this year.

Geez hux is having a serious shocker

Geez hux is having a serious shocker

1st one was hard, second one they had a penalty coming anyway. I could see though from Huxley kicking the ball away that he isnt happy right now. Some crisp passing from the Cheetahs.

 

[No4918]

9 phases and lost 40m.

 

[qwerty51]

Shocking decision! Went for the intercept, fucking sick of refs that have no idea about those.

 

[No4918]

Agree, can the white card be used for them? They are so hard to call live.

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Whoa! Brussow was pissed off there.

 

[qwerty51]

Strauss did the exact same as what Willie did, no penalty.. Great consistency referee

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Stupid kick from the Rebels at the end there.

 

[qwerty51]

More aimless kicking than the Tahs

 

[Brumby Jack]

Sounded like Tahs fans have infiltrated AAMI Park - I thought I heard some booing
