Super AU trial Qld v NSW 5 Feb Narrabri

[Adam84]

Reds on the way to Narrabri, look to be travelling without JOC (James O'Connor), Tupou, LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto), McDermott, BPA and Wilson

 

[Braveheart81]

That must be right on the limit of what can take-off/land at Narrabri.

Dempsey and Ramm? Injured?

The Reds will run all over this Tah’s team. What a bizarre selection by Penney.

 

[Slim 293]

Crazy! It's almost as if he's trialing players in this game.........

 

[fatprop]

some interesting lock choices

That must be right on the limit of what can take-off/land at Narrabri.

http://www.narrabri.nsw.gov.au/narrabri-airport-1157.html#:~:text=Narrabri Airport has two runways,(MTOW) of 45,000kg.

Runway 18/36 is 1,764 metres long and 30 metres wide with a bituminous sealed surface and low intensity lighting including PAPI. It is suitable for Code 3C aircraft up to and including jet aircraft with a Maximum Take-off Weight (MTOW) of 45,000kg.


The max takeoff weigh of the Fokker F70 owned by Alliance Airlines (which I believe they're using, according to the picture above) is 41,730kg


So yeah, pretty close. The F100 Alliance run could also operate there (just) at 44,450kg

It is like it is a trial or something

 

[RugbyReg]

obviously RA have said no Wallabies to play. But with only 1 trial, surely there's more benefit in playing your best team?

My guess at what the best starting Reds team would be:

15 Jock Campbell
14 Filipo Daugunu
13 Ilaisa Droasese
12 Hamish Stewart
11 Suliasi Vunivalu
10 Bryce Hegarty
9 Moses Sorovi
8 Seru Uru
7 Fraser McReight
6 Liam Wright
5 Tuaina Taii Tualima
4 Ryan Smith
3 Feao Fotuaika
2 Josh Nasser
1 Dane Zander

the bolded ones are the ones I would have starting in a full strength starting team

 

[PhilClinton]

Yep I agree Reg - it is a trial, but with the season to start around the corner, and the Super Rugby AU season being rather short, you need to be winning games from the get go. So you would have thought getting a chance to have your best 15 on the park together would be a requirement.

 

[fatprop]

The tahs aren't crap

1 LOOSEHEAD PROP Angus Bell
2 HOOKER Tom Horton
3 TIGHTHEAD PROP Harry Johnson-Holmes
4 LEFT LOCK Max Douglas ??
5 RIGHT LOCK Sam Caird
6 LEFT FLANKER Hugh Sinclair
7 RIGHT FLANKER Charlie Gamble
8 NUMBER EIGHT Will Harris
9 SCRUMHALF Jake Gordon
10 FLYHALF Will Harrison
11 LEFT WING Izaia Peresi
12 INSIDE CENTRE Tepai Moeroa
13 OUTSIDE CENTRE Joey Walton
14 RIGHT WING Alex Newsome
15 FULLBACK Jack Maddocks

 

[Braveheart81]

I wonder if the Reds will hold back their starting XV players so they are more likely to go up against the Tahs starters that are on the bench or whether each team will largely have a run against the other team's reserves?

 

[Jimmy_Crouch]

Lets be honest the whole Super Rugby Au is a trial.

 

[Pfitzy]

Now, this is the content I'm here for!

Remembering the Narrabri area has some of the most valuable farming land in the nation, they wouldn't leave those rich cockies and international farm owners with a dirt strip

Tamworth is even bigger, but they have a flight training school there.

Didn’t a whole bunch of Wallabies play for the Brumbies last week in a trial?

I don't think the Brumbies have played a trial yet?
