Dunno. OUR team is "down" but not out.

Am optomistic about the boys tonight.

Genia and Horwill are playing for run-on positions in the Wallabies so expect increased performance by both. If they ever needed motivation then now is the time.

GO THE REDS

Will will be hard up against it to get on top of Aaron Smith, but Horwill just might better the Clan's second row. But your backline is going to be overrun by the likes of Ben Smith (best player going round in Super rugby atm), Osborne, Buckman (NZ's answer to the Honey Badger) and especially Fokatoa. Highlanders by quite a few I think.

I would have thought with team performance this years in coming last, would be more then enough motivation for increase performance.
Reds 1st , Wallabies 2nd

I like your optimism though.
I do reckon that Lucas will a have good game.

It's not a illness, it's perfectly fine to feel like that,It's a good feeling...
Maybe I'm the one the with the illness for not feeling that way when I should. In Saying that, I want to apologize for being such a negative C&@T the past few months. I must have come across like Marto and I can't stand that bloke.

Reds by 7.
The one thing that they will to watch is the way the highlanders throw the ball around. They have been great keeping the ball a live and stretching the defence and scoring or making big meters. The boys will have boys will have to shut them quickly.

It's a real interesting time for Reds and Tahs fans at the moment. Traditionally bitter rivals, the Reds fans know that ultimately they will probably be cheering for the Tahs come finals time so they need to get behind them now. The Tahs fans want the Reds to do as much damage to the other contenders on the run into the finals so they can cheer the Reds on now knowing there is no risk that the Reds will make the top 6. The enemy of my enemy is my friend and all that.

But...... The elephant in the room is the final round. YEW!!! And the Reds have nothing to lose.

The Highlanders aren't a threat - no reason to cheer for the Reds yet. In fact you'd much rather the Highlanders in the finals series than the Canes, Chiefs, Crusaders.

Fuck that. Plenty of Tah fans backed Giteaus option to for that penalty goal in 2011 instead of touch. So I can't be phased in us doing the Tahs doing any favours.

I think the real question is, how soon can we start the match thread for round 19?
