Reds v Waratahs Round 5 - 2016 Super Rugby

[dru]

Listening on the ABC the Reds sound like they are playing a little more open in the last few minutes.

Id say wet-messy more than open. Tahs are better, but ref decissions handing it back to the Reds. A lot of that generated by Reds pressure.

how many penalties have the Tahs given away at the ruck, surely a YC is coming up

Guilford needs to learn the words "yes sir", this is rugby.

Why is Fingers allowed back off - I thought that was allowed only for scrums?

Browning was off for ~8 mins, suggests blood- or head bin to me.

Zac Guildford shows why you have backs to score tries, and fat bastards to do the grunt work at the breakdown.

 

[TOCC]

Jeez the Reds backline lack basic skills, should have scored a try off both those opportunities...

Reds are only in the lead thanks to equal incompetence from the Tahs

Not sure how the Tahs got that penalty........ tackler has got to release and be on his feet to play the ball.

Agreed

Foley sneaks a PK through to take the lead after 66 minutes. Tah 15- Red 13

Talakai on for Holmes for Reds.

LOL just saw footage of the first Tahs' try, and resulting TMO interaction. In case you didn't see it, was something like this:

O'Keefe: Hey George, I reckon it isn't a try. Red 7 impeded by Blue 7
George: Well, no. He was never in a position to make the tackle
O'Keefe: But Blue 7 grabbed him
George: And then let him go.
O'Keefe: But Red 7 waved his arms in frustration reeeeeeeeeally convincingly.
George: Yeah, nah.
O'Keefe: *sigh* Fine.

 

[Ignoto]

Jesus Kervei can't pass the pill in either direction. There's been some opportunities go begging because he can't put the ball infront of his man.

Talakai v Robinson. This scrum maybe advantage Tahs.

Phew, nope.

 

[TOCC]

Lol, apparently that was a set play backline move from the Reds....

I didn't realise that he was on for Browning, I thought that he was on for Ready

As a reds fan I didn't want to like this but geez it was comical to watch

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Tahs bench must be close to empty. Phipps off, Lucas on. Foley off, Cararro on.

Goromaru on for The Prince of Ballymore.

 

[dillyboy]

C'mon Reds!!

internet crap - grandstand keeps dropping out... what am I missing?

I can't watch or hear. But from online sources it sounds like:

Drudge
Tackle
Knock on
Scrum
Repeat
