Round 1 - Brumbies v Rebels - Fri 15th@7:45pm

[The Honey Badger]

Not for mine.

Haven't seen many.

 

[Strewthcobber]

Tom English gets himself a top 10 spot in the all time " how did he manage not to score then?"

 

[Up the Guts]

Tom English throws in his entry for howler of the night.

 

[Strewthcobber]

Love QC (Quade Cooper) but that non-attempt on Speight and high tackle there are why he won't get Wallaby game time

 

[Up the Guts]

Haha Marto, “was it really high.” Easy on the man love for Quade.

Haven't seen many.

I like Powell, but this is far from his best. Just not fast or crisp enough tonight. He can do better.

 

[Dctarget]

Not great work by Leota being stripped on his second carry by Samu, he'll learn.

And I dont think the Rebels will be bothered much at all.

The brumbies look cooked atm

 

[Dctarget]

Powell has been mediocre at best, Genia has smoked him in all facets tonight.

 

[Up the Guts]

“Most commanding performance by a fly half for 3 years.” Geez, he’s done some good things but really?

Yeah I thought I saw that in the first half. Fitness question.

 

[Shaker]

"This is the best flyhalf performance by an Australian in a while"

Come on man.

He passes the ball, he kicks the ball, he drinks water from a bottle! by jove this man is a god!!!!111!!!

He said top 5, but either way I don’t know if he actually believes it. I’m pretty sure he wants to though.

Quakes has a pretty solid game. Some good stuff, some vintage Quade nonsense, nothing spectacular. The thing is, he plays with such style that even his normal moments look “flashy”.

To be fair I can’t remember the last time a Aussie 10 played REALLY well in super rugby

 

[Up the Guts]

Damn pretty good showing from the Rebels.

 

[Strewthcobber]

Maddox you beauty, with the classic catch for the try

 

[dru]

To be fair to Quade (and Genia and DHP and Meakes and Maddock) the communication under opportunity in the Rebels back line is superb

 

[Dctarget]

Sooo Billy can't pass left to right I assume?
