Reds v Brumbies - RD10 2013

[Pedrolicus]

misses 13-7. great running game. Both teams dominating different areas, brumbies up but reds look very dangerous.

 

[USARugger]

Well I slept through the first half but I'm awake now, this better be a good second half because I still can't see the sun yet

 

[Ash]

Reds maybe got the slightly better of that half, but the Brumbies took the points on offer and are up.

Reds execution and the Brumbies scrum have stopped the Reds from maybe being up.

Interesting that the Brumbies are very willing to kick, even when they have decent position.

This game is amazing for an Aus derby. Both very willing teams.

Some good matchups so far.

Palmer all over Holmes at scrum time, I think that Slipper is getting the better of Alexander slightly, but Palmer is in front.

Lealiifano is all over Taps, who has made a few mistakes. Lealiifano has mainly been clinical.

Cooper has been better than To'omua, despite his one error so far..

Mogg has been fantastic, Lance has been error prone.

edit: And Smith v Gill! Gill has been a bit better on the ball, Smith a bit better with the ball.

Errors costing reds big time, great defense from brums, they deserve the lead at the half

I know how that feels, lived in Europe, watch the wallabies play there.

 

[USARugger]

Just saw the replay of Rocket's non-try, damn. Game of inches.

Not really surprised to hear Ash say the Brumbies are kicking more, they've been using a slightly more territorial game plan the past few rounds.

Pedrolicus Try being on the East Coast of the USA! Literally any game being played in Oz is airing between 2:30am-6am. I love the South African tours because everything airs at around lunch time

Gonna go lounge in bed for the second half, be back to chat about the result!

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Is that a try saving tackle from the Brums? Or a great Reds try? To'omua & Diggers injured.

Try saver from Mogg!

 

[USARugger]

Try or not you are fucking brilliant Liam Gill

 

[Pedrolicus]

ioane and To'omua injured? great move by the reds maybe a try?
mogg try saver

 

[Ash]

Reds just miss another try. Great cover from the Brumbies, maybe Hanson held the ball a fraction long and Mogg got across.

To'omua looks gone, sadly.

 

[USARugger]

No try

To'omua just reminded himself why you keep your head on the outside. Hope the guy is okay, that didn't look pleasant. From the perspective of a Reds fan, thank you. Defending the midfield just got much simpler it would seem.

 

[Ash]

To'omua knocked himself out, head on the wrong side for the tackle on Davies.

 

[Pedrolicus]

would've have been try of the year

 

[ACT Crusader]

Excellent decision and vision by Cooper to attack.

To'omua gorrnnnnn

 

[Ash]

McCabe will be on at 12, Lealiifano to ten probably.

 

[Pedrolicus]

another try saver for the brums

 

[Ash]

Reds bomb another try with impatience. Great Brumbies cover, they were alert.

Another Brumbies 5m lineout.

Mogg in trouble.

 

[Ash]

Brumbies only clear to 6m as Horwill disrupts the lineout. Reds throw.

 

[USARugger]

Looks like they completely took Genia and Cooper off the leash at oranges, this should be good.

 

[Ash]

Brumbies streal the lineout, Lealiifano clear to about 18m out.

That was Mowen in front of Simmons, throw maybe too low.
