Super Rugby AU Rnd 3: Brumbies vs Rebels, Sat 06/03/21

[Pfitzy]

Brumbies don't win this by 20+ they're just pretenders

 

[Mr Wobbly]

Slipper out - likely to miss a few weeks with a knee injury picked up at training

 

[Brumby Jack]

BJ, any leads on why Tucker is on the bench in Frost's place? Also, heartening to see Kata on the bench - hard on Fines though.

Rotation policy at play

 

[Derpus]

It's a shame Kata is a kiwi. Beast.

 

[Rebel man]

So does anyone know who the last player on the Rebels bench will be?

Tommy Nowlan

 

[Brumby Jack]

Solomone Kata out for the Brumbies, Isaak Fines-Leleiwasa in his place.

 

[Rebels3]

Tommy Nowlan

Predominantly a lock but can play some 6. Suspect he will come on at 6 in a like for like with Kemeny.

Kailea off the bench is a worry, he’s a good talent but still a teenager. Hopefully he comes on after AAT goes off

 

[louie]

Hardwick very lucky. I don’t know how he’s gotten away with that given the current way the game is officiated.

Louie I just said the same thing to a mate.

 

[dru]

Is this the same ref as the Rebels Reds game?

 

[Rebels3]

Hardwick very lucky. I don’t know how he’s gotten away with that given the current way the game is officiated.

I think it was an obvious decision. Went as low as you could go and wrapped.

Don’t mind the outcome but yeah not very consistent.

 

[Rebels3]

Is that the first time a team has scored 6 points without technically touching the ball once

Edit: just remembered Koroibete touched the kickoff

 

[Dctarget]

Pone is a delight to watch. Wrecking ball that can pilfer.

Edit: don’t like to see injuries though, unfortunate.

So did Izaia Perese, it’s about what happens after.

 

[dru]

Brumbies need to adjust to the slap happy whistle. Rebels energy and speed is looking good. Who was it wanting to play up-tempo?

 

[dru]

Rebels will rue not taking that kick.

 

[Scooter]

Is this the same ref as the Rebels Reds game?

No, I think Jordan Way refereed Reds v Rebels.

 

[Scooter]

Rebels look scrappy at base of ruck.
