I guess we're not really enforcing the use it call this year after all

Pipe dream.

Pipe dream.

This is an Australian rugby forum, pipe dreams have been sustaining us for nigh on a decade now

 

[Derpus]

Jesus Tupou on a mission to permanently destroy the psyche of the Moana props

 

[Derpus]

Oh it’s Kepu lol

 

[Wilson]

Rebels scrum should get them home from here, but this game shouldn't even be in question. Hopefully they don't regret pulling Strachan if it comes to a deciding penalty kick.

 

[Wilson]

That's got to be yellow

 

[Wilson]

Rebels needed to string some wins together and will be happy to have seen off the comeback, but they need to step up from here. They won't get the level of mismatch they had here again.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Norris's card remains Yellow which is fair.

Havili grabs Moana a losing BP.

First win at FMG for Rebels.

MY BOOOOOOYYYSSSSS

NO VICTORY IS EVER GUARANTEED

Leota says it was just a little knock to the knee, playing it safe and should be good for next week

Decision making when pushing forward lacked there. It's like they didn't trust our forwards to keep it.

Mind you with a few rare exceptions they killed us at the breakdown so chances are we would have turned it over. Since Dicky left we have little to fight the breakdown.

Are you ignoring Filipocock?

Daugunu great at taking it back but not there to secure the Rebels own ball. Rebels shouldn't be having trouble with their own ruck ball though, not with that pack.

 

[KevinO]

Just going to enjoy this while it last

The Rebels' longest win streak in real Super since 2019. The train is leaving the station, all aboard. After dispatching the mighty Force and MP (Moana Pasifika) minor premiers is all but assured.

Dare I say it but... I thought Uelese was best on? Nailed his throws, set up a great try, always made metres was on for the whole game I think. Was part of a completely dominant maul and scrum.

HM to Kemeny for his two line out steals, Daugunu for 3 pilfers and Kellaway's high ball and attack work.

I'm still waiting for Salakai-Loto to go to the next level, always looks like he's about to make some miracle offload or a Lawes-esque tackle but instead he just meekly goes to ground.
