Reds 2015

[RedsHappy]

FWIW, Phil Lutton is reporting that there are 'fading hopes' that QC (Quade Cooper) will re-sign with the Reds, but this could be more the fact that QC (Quade Cooper)'s contract discussions with the QRU seem to drift on and on...

Best of luck to him. Probably lucky to keep them both for so long. Dislike Graham's comments though and will be livid if Saia isn't able to be retained.

RG stated (in this context) that Saia was signed through 2016.

HendriK Tui and Dave McDuling returning from injury for Norths and University this weekend.

Safe to assume that Tui will get to practice his defence for most of the game given how Norths are tracking!

Last year, I was shattered whenever the Reds lost, which as often enough.
This year, I just turn off the TV, saying maybe next week, and I'm not even on Valium.
Consequently, there are more posts on the Reds 2016 thread than the Reds 2015 thread, which to me suggests that weré all looking forward to what might be into the future.
The queue you see outside the Reds administration block are the 'wantabe' coaches for next year- Lane, O'Connor, etc, etc.

RedsRugby reposted an pic from Hendrick Tui yesterday after his game (vs Uni) on the weekend with Norths in the QPR. He played 40 mins by the looks and had no problems apparently. He finishes the post by saying, "@redsrugby I'm hungry to play."

Shouldn't be surprising but a part of me was starting to think this guy will probably just be keen to do out his time with the Reds and move on sort of with one foot out the door already. So good to read stuff like that. Keen to see what he can do if he's as eager as it sounds.

Did any Norths or Uni folk watch the game he played in? How did he go?

Tui will probably come into the squad now that LoLo has gone away with the U20's

Watched Paraka replace Slips. He is bllody aweful around the field and looked "blown" after 5 minutes.

It looks like he has trouble just running - He is built like 2 x brick shithouses.

Guy is only a kid but needs to reduce some body mass before he get some mobility.

Funny you say that Scrubber as his ball carrying ability was a highlight in the NRC

I saw that as well - now he is bigger again, and different - well he was on Friday night

 

[tigerland12]

I agree RE Friday night, but he is generally very good with his ball running and has a decent work rate for his size. It wasn't a true reflection of his ability.

I'd say the intensity and speed of Super Rugby will take more than a few minutes off the bench to get used to.

Ahead of Robinson? Thought I read he went well for Souths?

fair point, i had forgotten about Robinson..
It will probably come down to who has the necessary match fitness.

The blade's pointing the wrong way.....

I was a bit concerned as to where JOC (James O'Connor)'s right hand is resting

He's French now, it's play on!

I'm concerned that you're concerned.
