Round 7: Reds v Rebels - Saturday 30 March @ Suncorp

[Joe Blow]

Gees Jones has been incredibly consistent this season..hard to see him being left out of the wallaby squad for the RWC.

The whole rebels backrow has been excellent.

 

[Derpus]

Woah, that's nuts. The ref had given advantage during play, but then rescinds it using TMO. Don't think I've seen that before.

That's pretty screwed.

Technically correct, though still iritating. Penalty followed by knock on means no advantage.

 

[Joe Blow]

TTS hit on Genia worthy of a sighting. Shoulder to the head and no arms.

What?!

 

[Joe Blow]

That’s where he got the shiner, early in this half.

 

[Slim 293]

That’s where he got the shiner, early in this half.

He had that before the game started!

 

[Up the Guts]

Will be nice to have a proper 8 for the Wallabies this season.

 

[Dctarget]

Leota's first try of his career. Bloody good on him, couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke too.

 

[Wilson]

That’s where he got the shiner, early in this half.

Have another look, there were arms, the hit was on the shoulder not the head and genia already had the shiner in the warm up

 

[RedsHappy]

Oh dear, as we have 2 wins out of 6 in 2019, it’s so encouraging we have this great new ‘culture’ from B Thorn.

 

[RedsHappy]

.... and such a ‘high potential talented young team’ that’s also incredibly valuable for the years ahead

nah

 

[Dctarget]

Reds were completely outplayed. I can't remember Hegarty touching the ball. That felt like watching the Wallabies v NZ, just starved of possession. Glimpses of brilliance when you hold the ball for three phases but that's it.

 

[RedsHappy]

Rebels coherence and accuracy in fast phase play in attack was very impressive

Had absolutely nothing to do with WG and QC (Quade Cooper) of course

 

[Forcefield]

Will be nice to have a proper 8 for the Wallabies this season.

Yeah but will Cheika play one?

 

[Ash]

Quade had a few classic answers in that post match interview. Wouldn't be surprised if he planned some of it.

 

[Dctarget]

Yeah he spoke well there. I was impressed. Classic Genia sniping at the end.

 

[RedsHappy]

Quade had a few classic answers in that post match interview. Wouldn't be surprised if he planned some of it.

And who could blame him given the appalling way he was treated by Thorn and even worse by the hapless QRU

 

[Shaker]

People can talk about Cooper and Genia all they want but it was the Rebels forwards that won them the game. Plenty of drive forward, but they won the set piece and got the ball moving using the piggies

 

[KevinO]

4 Trips to Suncorp with a 75% win ratio. Really do enjoy coming up here for rugby.

Luke Jones has to be Wallabies 6, just for his work at disrupting the opposition line out alone.
