At least you still got to ditch the kids for the weekend.

VERY expensive. I'll be paying it back for quite some time.

Looking forward to tonight's game. I think it'll be closer than some of the predictions on here

Game Day

Nice 31 degree day for drinking a few beers after work. Would not want to be playing Rugby in that heat, also gives the Rebels a little bit more of an advantage. The bench becomes a huge factor and besides lock I think our depth should get us over the line.

Yes depth will matter but I'm expecting another messy game with lots of dropped ball because of sweat issues.

Hopefully we can get up again.

I'm sure the commentary will find some form of moisture to attribute the poor ball handling to no matter the conditions..........

Semisi Tupou warming up pretty intently but I can't spot if anyone is missing. Lousy day drinking.

I'm sorry Mafi, but if you come out of a spat with a halfback looking like the bigger twat there's something wrong with you.........

So kickoff doesn't go 10. Scrum, technical scrum free kick. scrum, scrum penalty, lineout, one phase (one pass & one tackle), penalty, lineout, dropped ball, penalty, lineout, penalty, lineout, knock-on, scrum, one phase (1 tackle & one pass and one kick)

Finally the game gets going after the big driving maul 8 mins of game time and over 10 mins real time since kcikoff

And we all wonder why rugby struggles in this country

Are we calling an early crowd count at 14 or 15 thousand tonight?

 

[Brumby Runner]

Supposed streaming through Rugby.com.au or ABC Grandstand is a frustratingly bad joke. Can only get the occasional 3 or 4 words of commentary before cutting out. Anyone know if there is a better service available?

 

[TOCC]

Still don’t think this is the Rebels strongest scrummaging front row

 

[Strewthcobber]

Pretty smart - aim for the massive padding

 

[TOCC]

Genia is the point of difference between these two teams

 

[Strewthcobber]

Is Phillip entitled to get up and keep running there just before the try? Looked like he was brought to ground and then just got straight back up

 

[Wilson]

Genia is the point of difference between these two teams

One of the big issues in Aus rugby - after Genia (in form) there is a Nullarbor Plain of daylight to the next best 9.

Hmmm .. JD worth 2 points over Lealiifano? McCaffrey worth 1.5 points more than Timani? Peni worth more than Naivalu?
