Super Rugby AU Round 2 - Reds vs Rebels

[KOB1987]

This is a disaster.

I watched the first 1/2 thru gritted teeth.
swapped over to souths/tigers, was struck by the increased pace, enthusiasm and atmosphere.
felt guilty, swapped back.
This is tears.
I think I’m done.

I just switched back and forth a few times out of curiosity. The loig was shit too. The thing that made the broadcasts better, dare I say it, was the fake crowd noise. Just made it seemed like a better atmosphere. It was still shit though.

 

[WorkingClassRugger]

You'd think so, but they didn't put any pressure on him or prepare for the maul

Yeah. Perhaps you're right. I did think it was odd despite them calling Lukhan they didn't compete. Actually. Odd that they didn't even if it was the Reds calling it.

 

[Wilson]

The old double fake

 

[Shaker]

Just the Reds, being the Reds.

It's not a lack of physicality that's hurt the game. There's actually been quite a number of very willing hits out there. It's the poor handling and dumb shit around in regards to penalties. It's almost as though that despite the season being in the cooler, wetter months neither team has thought to practice executing their skills in the wet.

Ref seems reluctant to give a yellow to the Rebels compared with the first yellow against Hamish.

 

[Shaker]

Inject that offload into my veins

 

[Up the Guts]

Hahaha, there’s not even an end to this.

 

[swingpass]

Only it hasn’t been wet. March and April were wet, May and June were reminiscent of last year. Up here at least that is.

 

[Wilson]

Happy we haven't lost, but not sure more of this is good for anyone

 

[WorkingClassRugger]

Hahaha, there’s not even an end to this.

Hey, the 2nd half has been better. Which wasn't hard. But 4 tries.

 

[Dctarget]

I’m at the game and fuck if this isn’t an exciting end I don’t know what will satisfy you. Even the fucking DJ is keeping up with how absolutely stupid this game is. But it’s enthralling

 

[Donktec]

kicking away with less than a minute on the clock, mind boggling

It's wet out there tonight. My point is the weather shouldn't be as big of a factor as it always seems to be in Australian Rugby.

Great try to tie it but the concept of time itself may have morphed into a malleable non-linear construct during this rugby football match. See the minutes bend and refract in the rain, like so many nebulous particles distended in the time-continuum kaleidoscope. I am now convinced I am witnessing my first-ever 4-hour rugby football match. And now "extra time". What is extra time when the notion of time itself has lost all meaning?

You've switched over to Interstellar, you gimp.

Good to hear, I just turned it back on to see the Reds score so at least it’s a tense ending.

Totally understand, but on the flip it’s hard to train in the wet if it’s not wet.

Like watching a train crash
