Super Round 2, 2018 - Rebels V Reds @ AAMI Park

[biggsy]

I think my school mate Marto has been doing a sterling job. Better than the input from Horan by far.

Marto thinks the Rebels in front by this much because of one mans down. If it was 15 on 15 it would still be the same score

 

[Ignoto]

It's the hope that kills you. If it wasn't pissing down here in Brisbane it'd be a total waste of a night.

 

[dru]

Almost as good at it as Foley.


Honestly, I'm fine with us being this bad. But if we are this bad we've gotta be this bad we need to be this bad with Stewart and Daugunu on the field.
Get Lance off the field now!

Honestly though, the game is bad because of attitude.

Now switch your head to having Quade and Khunt on the field. <Ok this works for me, not for others>

Must have been three knock ons in the lead up to that try

 

[Simon.]

Toua's actually had a very good game. Especially compared to expectations. Good skills, good awareness.

No.

That attitude has given us crap tonight. It would be a different story with 15. And the Rebels still looked rattled at periods - even with us at 13.

So no.

Not saying it's good. Not saying Brad is not responsible. But he HAS had some achievements here.

edit PS not your attitude, Brad's attitude.

 

[Simon.]

JP Smith again. Breakdown hero.

Even CFS looks interested and committed. BPA was fantastic earlier. Quite a few positives for the Reds to take out of the night, despite the red card disaster.

 

[Ash]

That Reds try a bit earlier almost felt like a pity try, should have been called up several times before it.

This about sums it up for me:

Hamish Stewart!​

Ja ja - let's see Bulle v canes

Welcome to QLD Brad.
Different coach, same old shit

We know at least one team will be good in that game.

 

[Ash]

This game.....someone needs to put it out of its misery.

My problem is that I liked the things I was hearing from Stiles MUCH more than what I have been hearing from Brad. And Stiles is not even just a low bar. Brad seem to think that the fans can get fucked. No need to engage.

Different coach MORE than just old shit.

 

[Up the Guts]

Toua doing us all a good deed overcooking that kick and ending it

Time for another world wide search I say

 

[Ash]

Toua with a silly kick off a turnover to put us out of misery after both teams choked tries in the end.

Deserved win to the Rebels. Congratulations.

Ah, well. Some promising things for the Reds there. The scary part is comparing to the first game last year where we showed so much more.

 

[Zero_Cool]

So I've had this opinion for a while. But playing the whole game with a man down makes it impossible for that team to win.

I think we need to change the rules so the game can potentially survive. The player can't rejoin the game, but after 20 minutes they may be replaced. The player can (and often is) still punished after the game.
