Super Rugby Rnd 1: Waratahs v Drua

[Scooter]

Ha ha ... if they call the knock on then the yellow card doesn't happen.

No home stadium is a bit of a cop out

No reality

Does Nic Berry seem a bit uncertain tonight? Almost avoiding making decisions? Seems to be missing a fair bit, and reluctant to make calls.

He's letting a few things slide. Probably jet lagged. Didn't all these aussie/nz ref's just fly back from their 6 nations duties?

I think on tv shows worse then it is. Actually not that bad as reasonable amount of fans on one side. Did anyone think tahs getting no more then 3k last season were going to suddenly get above 10k in the first game especially after the last season. You lot lost perspective/ reality.

No major sponsor on the front or back, no sponsor on the goal post pads empty stadium. It’s really poor optics Aus rugby needs a strong NSW. It’s a new season landmark occasion you’d hope for better

No reality

It is a massive cop out

Gordon carrying on a bit

SANTOS is across the back in pretty big letters

 

[John S]

That is some passing that I missed from the Tahs last year, low but still held on - and to someone in a gap

 

[Rebel man]

SANTOS is across the back.

Normally the major sponsor gets the spot under the numbers

 

[Scooter]

That should have been a penalty for offside from the knock on, surely.

nah… they don’t

front, sleeve and upper back are the 3 most valuable positions on the jersey

 

[A mutterer]

jake with the intercept .....

and he looks as busted as HJH (Harry Johnson-Holmes) did in the half time interview

 

[cyclopath]

Impressed with the Tahs defence work in tight. Plenty of grunt, technically pretty good too. A good sign early in the season.

 

[Rugbynutter39]

Tahs doing better in second half which is pleasing..Donaldsons passing game and ability to find players in space been impressive. He is a lock for me at 10 on this performance

Well if you are correct they have 3 of the most valuable spots empty…….

 

[Micheal]

Gamble looks like he’d play a quirky cop in a Taika Waititi movie.

 

[molman]

I'm liking some of the detail. Presentation of the ball... entry into contact... positioning... there are still rough edges, but you can see some of the bits they have been working on.

No they don’t…

SANTOS is in big letters across the back
