The Ghost of Raelene
Nick Farr-Jones (63)
He’s not as brain dead as Swain who will just do something dirty as part of the fight. JAS more likely to run over the top of you next run.Yeah it looked like he was trying to put a shot on. I love his aggression and intensity but he really needs to be more careful, for his own safety but also risking being penalised/carded. He loves that dogfight so much - if I’m the Lions I’m niggling him ala Swain a few years back.
A lot of those stats with tackles and passes also would have built up early when the Tahs turned the Reds away on the try line.
Overall not a great game so the Reds will be glad to get away with the points. For the Tahs it’s a good hard showing at home again and I’m glad they didn’t get gapped in the 2nd half. It is a team on the improve who are stronger than this time last year.
Porecki and FLW (Fergus Lee-Warner) got through a lot of work for guys with no match fitness. 1 club game doesn’t do anything.
