Really like the rebels this year...Harris has been fantastic acquisition as Marshalls the troops well and does a lot of things that go unseen as tactically aware footballerHow good are the Rebels looking!
Love the way they are attacking.
Interesting because I think the Lions managed to win even though a slew of calls went against them. The worst was when the Lions scrummie was ruled to have knocked it on when in fact a Rebels player slapped it down. Even the commentators went mental.The lions were lucky to win. I really thought the rebels should have had that try awarded earlier on when Stirzaker was ruled to have knocked on. Don't want to rubbish the ref because their weren't any shockers but it really felt like the rebels got none of the 50/50 calls.

They stuck to their guns and took the small chances that came their way. Luck? Nah. Good defense and not giving up. The Lions very smartly adjusted their defense and the Rebels played behind the advantage line. Very impressed with Whiteley. Absolute warrior.
Looking forward to a big win this weekend by the Rebels.
I would be wary of the Lions. On their day I think they can take it to anybody. Consistency is an issue but there are parts to their game that they excel at.
I sincerely think that the Rebels will have their day much more often than this Lions side.
