[Set piece magic]

Reds to be trailing by 10 at half time and win by 20

By 20? 5 max.

Completely agree there are much better 9's getting around the Hospital Cup one of them is Sorovi and he showing that he is a class above that comp.

Not even the best at his club IMO, not even top 3. The continued selection is mind boggling. Hasn't shown anything during his game time to justify his selection over Sorovi. He is young and will get better but isn't super level yet. Really my only major issue with selections at the moment. Would have liked to see Suli starting and Jock at 15 however hopefully see that early in the 2nd half.

What was that sticky paste Parkinson rubbed into his hands? I’ve got my excuse ready made if we lose already!

 

[drewprint]

Actually, make that Kalani Thomas...

 

[Derpus]

yikes....

Come on reds you are better then that. Amateur hour mistakes.

prescient posts above

 

[Rugbynutter39]

Reds looking better. Get those butterfly’s out

 

[drewprint]

Ahh yes. The Aaron Smith squark. How I’ve missed it.

 

[Rugbynutter39]

Great recovery from Thomas after mistake gifting early try

 

[Derpus]

Yeah well done to the kid. Now to exit properly.

 

[Rugbynutter39]

This is good - now power on reds

 

[Derpus]

Stewart starting slow.

Edit: Actually that was a pretty embarrasing clean out attempt from Blyth

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Geez Sio Tomknson is such a pork chop, deserved a slap for that shite.

 

[Rugbynutter39]

Considering players out for the reds this is really good performance so far from reds hope they keep it up - especially knowing players on the bench for reds

 

[Wilson]

Really happy with the reds defence so far, just need to get the exits working

 

[Derpus]

Proper Wallaby quality exit at the moment.

 

[Rugbynutter39]

Reds not quite still on their game - luckily only playing nz super rugby side (lol lol lol)

 

[Rugbynutter39]

Fark that’s what happens with poor exits - come on reds your better then this even with players missing
