ahhh i see the qld ref excuse is already in play

Away foul troll, let me bask in the misery of my dismal team in peace while you do the same.

And Foxtel Play on Samsung goes down. Must've smelt the foul NSW air

Ref is trash, but finally got one right at scrum time, only for us to miss touch and gift the reds a try.

This is pretty appalling rugby by both sides. Ref not covering himself in glory either.

Slick try by the Reds

Missed start of the match - What happened to Magnay? Injured or late switch with Perese?

Can't, online Foxtel has decided to go down as the scrum was set about 5 to 10 minutes ago

 

[NTT]

Magnay tried to tackle someones knee with his head

 

[Strewthcobber]

9 points Reds have turned down in the last 5 minutes

Edit
But they get 7 back!

Double edit
5

Foxtel Go/Play comes back up as the Reds score a Brumbies special then make a hash of the restart, poor work Tui. G Smith gives away a gift three points on half time.

 

[Strewthcobber]

Quality's not great but entertaining game once the scrums stopped

Lots of dumb penalties from both sides, and if the Rebs had held on to one or two more passes could have been lots closer than it is

Reds up with 54% of possession and 63% of territory

Rebels 6 missed tackles to 3 (on rugbystats anyway - Fox had something different)

I am sceptical of those missed tackle stats, neither of these sides are, shall we say, defensively competent...

McMahon on, and he's already going 1 million miles an hour, nice to see.

Thought Hanson would shine over his old mates but no, Moore definitely playing better. Mafi is the one constantly sitting on the ragged edge. If he doesnt calm you could see a Red of his own at some time.

Who is the Shute Shield 6? How come Soup has been missing this bloke?!

Reds loosing badly in the rucks. Rebels should thinking about where they would have been without that turnover finesse.

Thought Quade is doing well, Frisbey is not on form we have too much slow ball.

Best of the first half? Points victory to Hodge over Smith.

I'm liking Nabulli too.

Cooper is so unbelievably bad at tackling. Beggars belief he's a professional

 

[Strewthcobber]

Smith's given away 3 penalties and six points in the 3 minutes

Higgers bemused by that penalty, missing a replay so impossible to comment.

10 penalties from the Reds before 45 minutes is gone, you can't win a game like that.
