Reds 2017

[Scrubber2050]

Both "fighters" have the same amount of skin covering their chin even if one bloke has 2 of them.

QC (Quade Cooper) needs to pick him off at a safe distance but be very careful in the first few minutes.

PS - Hoping for a Green knockout win in the main bout.

Quade talking about boxing (and Barba)

[I like to watch]

I'm a little uncomfortable seeing this bloke ripped into here. He's a semi-pro athlete and those guys do read forums.

I would comfortably say, and I imagine everyone here would agree, he would beat the fuck out of any of us in any fight sport (including boxing).

Of course he's going to be the butt of some jokes.
He looks like a before photo for the Biggest loser.
He is months away from being anywhere near the condition any serious semi pro would be in for a 'fight'
But we all know this is not a contest.
He was deliberately given insufficient notice to prepare,it's a circus, and when you are a paid circus performer, you've got to expect jokes at your expense.

I just hope he's getting plenty for his part in the circus.

Reds alternate jersey looks pretty interesting, similar to the 2015 Australian Sevens jersey but with red and white.

QRU have a new sponsorship/partnership with news.com in QLD, which means more coverage for the Reds.

There will be an 8 page liftout in the Sunday Mail this weekend with a Super Rugby and Brisbane 10s season preview.

Cooper knocked out the other guy in the second round.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I'm stunned. Totally.

Good win to Quade over Jack McInnes. Let's hope Danny Green can put "The Man" Mundine back into his box, never to be seen (or heard) again!

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

^^^^^^^^^ when did losing ever shut Mundine up?

 

[dru]

I thought Mundine was the clear winner. Not my sport, the guy's a pratt, but I thought that was his fight.

Kudo's to Green for giving Mundine the benefit of the doubt for landing the cheap shot. Footage doesn't look so generous and I really wasn't bothered either way who 'won'. This fight was about the money and won't change either guys legacy.

Ready Faagase Thor Neville Tui Tuttle Magnay Maranta

 

[hammertimethere]

Thoughts on what the Rebels Trial team will look like? We already have an indication that Magnay and Perese will get time in the backs and the old war horses should all play minutes after missing the 10's

Quade Cooper is a parody of himself.

Thanks for sharing with the the class

I love the "clean" style of the home and away jerseys. I'll have to save up my bikkies for the away one, I reckon.

I'm not much of a fan of the 10s one though. I can't say why, but it sort of reminds me of that leopard spot one from a couple years ago. Too much going on.

 

[upthereds#!]

Trial Team. With only 1 trial I think they will play a larger reserve squad, mixing non 10s playing stars with young guns. Bigger names who played 10s to sit it out (Slipper, Simmons, Kerevi, Hunt)

Faagase Moore Thor
Tui Douglas
Tui Higs Smith
Frisby Quade DP Magnay Perese Kuridrani Maranta
Ready Vanzati Talakai Rodda Timu Tuttle Taefu Ngamano(spelling)

Geez Quade gets boed at boxing in Australia too, he will end up with a complex

Super Rugby season must be starting soon, the Quade digs are coming more frequent
