Super Rugby AU Grand Final - Reds v Brumbies - Saturday 8th May 2021

[Set piece magic]

Can we get a half decent analysis of Tupou's scrumming? How its refereed will have a massive influence tomorrow night. There's been a number of times when I've looked at it and thought its the most blatant boring in since that Italy game in 2012 with Castrogiovanni (remember that!). Other times he's looked fine. Seems like with Dan McKellar openly talking about it in the media he won't get away with the blatant stuff in this game

Funnily enough?

Valetini?

AKA the Seagull?

Making metres against tiny outside backs doesn't make up for the lack of ticker and laziness in the tight.

I think you’re thinking of Tupou

How many rolling mauls from the Boringbies?

More like Brmbaulbies......... amirite?!

Don't get me wrong I rate ASY (Angus Scott-Young) as much as any and his workrate is second only to McReight this season. It is hard to deny the kind of season Valetini is having though.

yep, you're way off here. He's disproved a few doubters (including me) this season. He's first picked Wallaby backrower for mine.

The Brumbies have a long history of being hingers in the scrum. Bill Young and Ben Alexander folded quicker than a camp chair.

Aussie's PTSD from Robbie Deans playing Ben Alexander at loosehead prop intensifies..

The captain's run for forum members is just a day out fishing.

His competition is playing at 1.55pm tomorrow and can be watched on Stan.

Brumbies paying $2.50. Think that's a bit unfair to them. Only lost in the dying minutes twice by 2 points. Think there's a lot of false confidence around.

I'm loving the fishing and the barbs. Much more fun than endless bs nonsense about the administration and Folau anyday of the week. So good to be talking about Rugby

Near sold-out Suncorp will be a huge factor IMO. I think $2.50 is generous.

 

[Braveheart81]

I'm on the Brumbies +4.5. Expecting it to be close.

Best you can come up with to bait a Qlder is a picture of an historic Waratah front row?
Though you were better than that.
