Waratahs v Brumbies Sat 22nd March 7:30 PM Allianz

Where is the ref trying to speed up the game.

HT
Tahs 21-6

 

[Wilson]

Brums feeling a bit the pain of too much weight and not enough mobility in the back row. Hooper has been good this year but is not pairing with Valetini well. Crying out for Cale to shore up their wide raids, but might be better with Hooper at lock and Scott in 6 given the players available

Nah, O’Keefe won’t speed it up. Means less tv time for him

Brums can be fine. They need to drag it back in tight. Seem to be going sideways way too early and the Tahs have capitalised on the rushed field.

I didn't want to comment at the time but this chest pump had classic 'put the mock on 'em' written all over it. Not crowing yet but I'm certainly joining in the chants and the flowers running down the sideline.

It's pretty arrogant.. I'm not a fan, but I thought be a bit of niggle.. but why give motivation

 

[Strewthcobber]

I just rewatched. Ref was 100% focussed on the low tackle.

AAA then asked him about #1 and ref said mistakenly says "yeah that's who we were looking at" even though they spent the entire time looking at and discussing Heaven's chop tackle

DISAVOW DISAVOW

Don’t unjynx it. Tahs negative magic is far more potent than all others.

Shocker from BOK.

That was my take also

Yep, and the fact the Larkham doesn't like his 12/13/15 trying to get through the line in the centre of the field its all crash ball then try go wide and around the Tahs. Very little attacking pressure. Tahs are out working the Brumbies by doing the simple stuff well.

 

[A mutterer]

Tahs contact had been great, Gleeson looking like he's making a big statement. Him v bobby v has been glorious, I love how they and others are searching each other out.

 

[dru]

Brums look like better players, Tahs look like a better team. So far.

 

[Super Hooper]

They are muppets. It's was a entertaining first half. I can't remember the last time the Tahs scored 3 tries against Brumbies in first half

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Teddy starting to look like what’s been promised.

 

[Adam84]

BOK miss another simple penalty.
Brumbies knock it on and player in front plays it

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

I know nothing about reffing but he seems super close to the ruck and play. With so many moving bodies and piles of them he can’t be getting a good view of everything.

Hes so close he’s in the way

 

[Jimmy_Crouch]

Lawson take a step forward ffs

 

[Blazing Saddles]

Oh dear, larkham and the brumbies upset with the referee
