Reds v Stormers - Super Rugby Round 9, 2012

[Slim 293]

Can anyone explain to me how Canno gets a gig as a commentator?

He's better than the rest of the Fox team sans Kafer...

Genia better not make Wallabies this year.

If you'd said Berrick Barnes I'd agree...

Probably still need Genia...

I don't like Berrick, I'm fine with that.

Was leaning toward the Stormers but not after the Saders game. Reds by 5 or more.

Come on Reds. Don't make me look silly now...

Also, has anyone noticed the commentary is gone? I've prayed many a time before that it would just shut off but never thought it would actually happen.

 

[Trololol]

Where the Reds supporters now? Only NSW & Brumbs around...

No commentary is a refreshing hange

Thought they'd have left at half time... guess they're a bit masochistic..

Who was the bastard who told them the mike was switched off?

I honesty don't know why they don't do what they've done with League games in the past where you can actually turn it off and select to hear the ref or just the sound at the ground.

The Red's missed tackles stat is quite something!

/queue Rants RE injuries

A couple of backline players get ruled out of the red machine, and the team capitulates..

Their forwards are basically all there... This season is turning out the way it is because of the poor performance of it's forwards, not because some flashy goosestep is on the sidelines.

 

[ChargerWA]

I must say, the Stormers defence is unbeleivable.

A combination of well organised, but more importantly the individuals techniques are amazing. So many dominant tackles.

 

[wobbly]

Ban the fucking chip kickin Australian rugby please!

 

[qwerty51]

Just ban Genia and Morahan

 

[wobbly]

Stormers deserved it but Reds had their chances and hung in there. A few bad injuries and a few poor choices lost it for them.

Can anyone explain to me how Canno gets a gig as a commentator?

No. If they try, they are Canno. Awful.

 

[PaarlBok]

Great win for the Stormers. After all the injury setbacks they were still able to break the Brisbane flook. Thought Vermeulen lead this young side superbly and a 4 point bagger. Thought Walsch was good till towards the 60 minute mark and then completely blow to only one side. No way any team can drive from the lineouts the way he allowed it to be pull down. 9 points so far on tour a good one for our young boys.

Hard luck to the Reds, you unfortenately had the wrong team at the wrong time of the season. Pretty sure you'll get it back on track.

A chip in your own 22 when you must score (or at least, not let them score) - I can't freaking believe it.

Reds could've won that even though Stormers were the much better side.
