Super Rugby Trial: QLD v NSW, John Ritter Oval, Dalby, QLD ; 24 Jan 7:30pm KO (local time), 8:30pm AEDT

[Blackadder]

One in the bin for the reds

 

[Blackadder]

Hunt is having a shocker in defence

 

[Adam84]

Fair bit of emotion between the players.. good to see, just hope they don’t do anything silly

 

[Blackadder]

Reds attack with the offloads looks pretty good

 

[Adam84]

Really liking McDermotts box kicks

 

[Blackadder]

Great run by Bell but Tahs drop it

 

[Blackadder]

Again poor by Beale

 

[Adam84]

Robbie Abel looking fantastic for the Tahs, Hooper being an absolute menace.

Wilson, McDermott, Wright looking good for the Reds. Speight playing smart rugby

 

[Adam84]

Reds lose their third lineout in Tahs 22

 

[Finsbury Girl]

missing HH & Rodda. Tualima trying hard but good and bad from the GPS man.

He is doing well, but conceding height and weight against his opposition

 

[Adam84]

Marky Mark (Nawaqanitawase) on the wing looks great as well, really nice potential there

 

[Blackadder]

Tahs scrum is holding well so far

 

[Finsbury Girl]

Well good to get the shite out our system before next week. We'll need to step it up.

 

[Blackadder]

Halftime 7 all

 

[Wilson]

Very happy to see the reds not concede a point while a man down

 

[Adam84]

My concern for the Reds, is there area of weakness tonight(Lineout/maul) is going to be exploited by the Brumbies next week.. Rodda and LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) returning should assist that a bit though

 

[Brumby Runner]

30th minute the classic example of Rob Simmons' lack of impact around the ground. Good run up the middle by Hooper, tackled and McDermott stands over him in an effort to win the ball. Rugged Rob comes flying in, arguably from the side, to clean out Tate, who is 30kg wringing wet, misses and ends on the ground a metre or two the other side of the tackle area with McDermott still comfortably on his feet and able to continue taking part in the play.

Wilson having a tremendous game. Tate disappointing, JOC (James O'Connor) looking like a Wallaby No 12.

not exactly like for like replacements - in a good way

 

[MungoMan]

Gee Tate McDermott is creating bulk half-opportunities with small breaks around the ruck. I like...
