Wouldn't even need to call in real time, he could just leave a couple of voicemails before the game detailing his struggle to find any reason not to award a NSW try.

It's interesting that Thorn has finally decided to swap Lance and Stewart over, and for this game especially. The selection of Sorovi at 9 is a good one but high pressure game to be given your starting debut. Curious as to what has happened to Tuttle and McDermott - they seemed to be the 9's at the start of the season and now they have dropped completely from view. Has Lucas been that good?

A full-on stink would be top notch.
There was a bit of argy bargy (push & shove) in the corresponding fixture at suncorp last year.
The last decent fight I remember at a Super Rugby game was reds v rebels in 2013 (in Brisbane) where Beau Robinson landed a couple on Fugistaller.

McDermott is with the Australian u20s.

It would seem that - at last - B Thorn has realised that the Lucas and Lance combo offers neither success, nor development, nor longevity (in that Lance will soon be gone).
Better late than never.

I did hear some rumblings that this was always 'the plan', not sure if this exact game or more generally play him at fullback for a bit and then move him to 10, unless forced by injury.
Also Kerevi might just ensure he's the starting Wallabies 12 by destroying Beale!

It is an unfortunate fact that that's exactly what would be needed to remove KB (Kurtley Beale) from the starting lineup.

I would hope with what, 4 wins from 12 games (and with those 4 wins markedly biassed to the early season), B Thorn might have thought it was a good time to 'advance forward the plan'.....if indeed it was 'the plan'.

^^^ or at least swap them mid game,to give him a taste.

Don't disagree at all, frankly I would have gone with Stewart for at least 20 min off the bench, as well as shifting one of our wingers to fullback for 20 min or so. But someone who would know indicated this was planned, but I have little context surrounding this.

Much as I think most games are improved by some biff, it’s been so long between drinks that a red v tahs stink would probably only show how far we’ve slipped in the biff stakes.

Righto - enough talk about the Refs. Looking forward to this. Ready for an old fashion hate feast.
I know people are counting Qld as the under dogs, but that’s the way we love it against this fancy pants spivs. When it comes down to it, we know they have no ticker. Dempsey & Hanigan aren’t even fronting up, and Phil Waugh has done nothing for years. What a fucking pretender. Things are so bad down there they are playing centres at flanker and powder puffs in the second row.
Reds to win with a Mark Coyne try on the buzzer.
