This win was a long time coming, the last time my boy and I watched the Reds win live was in 2013. I thought I was cursed over the last 2 years when we won just the very few games I was not at Suncorp for.

Really? I think you are being a little hopeful there.
I know you will be incensed because it was a kiwi and all, but 6 weeks? You're dreaming.

So does he get 3 weeks as well? How wasn't this a yellow card. It was worse then pococks as he actually used 2 arms to try and sink a choke in.

I thought the same thing, and then I remembered who the refereee was

That was a bloody good first half from the Reds, I thought Gill had a huge one. By geez thought the Clan played like they were tired for much of the game, seemed to be no zip!! Anyway a good win for Reds, will do the game good around the area. It is one of the beauties of sport, there no guaranteed winners!!!

Yes positives the first half...(where played positive attacking rugby) the negatives the second half (where deserted what they did in first half and almost went back to the reds we know for first 6 rounds)....
But yes great to see more natural attacking flair being resorted to - not over complicated playbooks. Just reinforced me to me how badly coached Reds were, which not enabling players like Kerevi to finally show their true potential. Nabuli also plays continually that sort of game might be good shot for wallabies as wing stocks hardly locked down for wallabies at the moment. Whilst Hunt also played for my mind one of best games yet, although playing at 15 must hurt his chance of any wallabies selection.

The support running was a revelation, we'll win a few more if we keep doing it. I love seeing the short passes to support players in rugby.

Did you miss some words out?
Reds will be behind by 15 at half time.
You're right, I meant to say Reds would be ahead by 15 at half time

Looked so good didn't it. The thing is, you can't tell me the players suddenly developed that ability in the last 2 or even 5 weeks. They've obviously had that capacity and credit to the coaches for bringing it out.
Now for more of the same, for 80 minutes.

Attacking structure was completely different last night, McIntyre standing a lot more flat and just behind the forward pods. A fair bit of decision making was transferred onto Frisby and in the first half he did it really well.. It fell apart in the second half a bit with forwards getting fatigued.
Two weeks ago it looked as though Nabuli and Kerevi had never even met each other before running into the field, with poor interchange between the two and terrible passing. Last night they were playing like the Fijian Seven's team with offloads and flick passes sticking when they shouldn't. Massive improvement.

he was electric alright. very alert. Maybe tanked up on Red Bulls or some sort of "energy substance" haha lets not beat about the bush any more, I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT ITS LIKE TO PLAY RUGBY WHILE SKY-HIGH ON LIQUID CRACK COCAINE
not insinuating anything mind you.
has a goddamn cracking sidestep, huge, reminiscent of Rua Tipoki or Orene A'i in their primes. Red's Jersey Salesman has shit show of getting a run now.
