Waratahs v Force, round 1, Sunday 15 February

[Lindommer]

Righto, who's going to help Pfitzy and I handle these western interlopers at The Clock from 1:00 tomorrow arvo?

 

[Pfitzy]

At this rate I'll barely be able to yell abuse at the Force...

 

[Lindommer]

Five away wins out of six matches so far, surely the Force can't make it six out of seven? C'mon Tahs, restore a bit of sanity to proceedings.

 

[JSRF10]

Perfect weather in Paddington at the moment. If it stays clear we'll see plenty of tries today. Can't wait

 

[Forcefield]

Super excited! Good luck Waratahs. Win or lose, lets just hope there arent any injuries. I just dont want to feel like a Reds fan at the final whistle.

WOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOO IT'S GAME DAY!!!!

 

[Dctarget]

Both sides are packing very low in the opening scrum of the game. Good to see that both teams have focused on scrummaging over the off season.

 

[ChargerWA]

Ehberson doing his best Michelin Man impersonation.

 

[Scoey]

Is Ebersohn carrying a sternum or chest injury? That padding he is wearing is ridiculous otherwise!

 

[Dctarget]

fuck that was painful to watch

 

[qwerty51]

Brache are you fucking kidding me. Why is he trying to grab it and not force it?

 

[A mutterer]

still havent learned how to clear a kick from the back - so fucking enraging!

 

[Scoey]

I guess he was already falling and way off balance. Either way he made a dogs breakfast of it.

As Kearns said, that's a massive target on his chest.

 

[Scoey]

Lots of eager intent out there. All the guys are a bit too enthusiastic. Hopefully they settle in the next 10mins or so and with any luck Walsh will put his whistle away.

Always good driving your shoulder into a soft spot. Particularly when its on one of those fly half fellas.
Real handy when the soft spot is in the middle of their chests.

 

[ChargerWA]

Force playing to deep behind the gain line. Barely making the gain line.

Yeah I thought they were playing a bit deep but still making good metres.

 

[ChargerWA]

Eberhson not injured as far as I know. He's never been a big fan of contact.

 

[ChargerWA]

Force not showing any cohesion in attack. Waratahs giving away to many penalties. Not much of a contest yet.
