It was raining so they tried to do lineouts in the tunnel
The flight back from Perth in economy was murder on the guys over 6'5.
Considering the injuries and the fact that Vunivalu is meant to be on the bench this is the team I'd be selecting:
1. Peni Ravai*
2. Matt Faessler*
3. Zane Nongorr*
4. Seru Uru*
5. Ryan Smith
6. Liam Wright*
7. Fraser McReight
8. Harry Wilson*
9. Tate McDermott*
10. Lawson Creighton*
11. Filipo Daugunu
12. Hunter Paisami*
13. Josh Flook
14. Floyd Aubrey*
15. Jordan Petaia
16. Richie Asiata
17. Sef Fa’agase
18. Phransis Sula-Siaosi
19. Lopeti Faifua
20. Connor Anderson
21. Kalani Thomas
22. Tom Lynagh
23. Isaac Henry
24. Suliasi Vunivalu
25. Dane Zander
26. John Bryant
Great opportunity for Aubrey to get some serious game-time, although unless he's injured I can't think of a reason you wouldn't have Mac Grealy playing. Players with an * next to their name are the ones I would expect to be subbed off at some point. Only player I can't really see getting any game-time is Zander.

Qld & NSW Country also included in the program - which I’m loving.
A few of the ladies from our local comp selected in their first country team which is pretty good when they all took up rugby in the last 3 yrs.

Why wouldn’t Zander get game time? Whatever people think of him on here he is one of our senior sqaud members. I don’t see why he wouldn’t be getting a run.
I think Zander is a good player but he's the odd man out in that squad, unless they plan on playing 3 looseheads. You can have extra backrowers and wingers on an extended bench but a 5th prop doesn't really work imo. No doubt he'll get gametime this year but currently I have him behind Ravai and Fa'agase for the 1 jersey, not to mention Hoopert.

I think Fa'agase will largely be playing tighthead this year, not sure they'll see Sula-Siaosi as ready yet. They've been looking at Ravai on both sides as well, but I'm not sure about that one.
Yeah tighthead is a worry so you might be right about Fa'agase, in which case Zander will play a lot of the season at 17 and I'll be wrong about him being 3rd choice. Either way, just an opinion.

I'm in a similar situation on the East Coast US Marce.I'm just calculating my local time to watch this:
I have to wake up early
Do u know if Reds youtube channel uploads the replays? Or just on live
You will be able to watch a replay on Stan using a VPN. The Reds usually put up the game up on YouTube afterwards. It's usually the same link at the actually stream now I believe. Could be wrong though.

I actually pay for ESPN Latin America to watch all Super Rugby games, so it'l doenst make sense for me to pay for Stan as well
Afterwards? So many days after the game?

I think pretty much immediately or instantaneously. From memory you can rewind the live feed as well so think it pretty much uploads as it streams.

The vision from Tate was excellent as well
