Waratahs v Reds Match Thread

[BRIX]

Reds have got nothing to complain about...except for that last penalty.

 

[cyclopath]

Then Tahs get done for going off feet - fair enough

Horne smashing Finger in tackle
Reds tank another chance

 

[BRIX]

TPN's style of play isn't made for 80 minute rugby. He would be a mercurial impact player. Chabalesque cult figure

FFS Chambers. Great run, then bleh.

 

[BRIX]

Tom Carter = doprechaun (a dope with luck)

 

[cyclopath]

Why is that a scrum and not a penalty, Bryce? I mean, either he's holding on, or the ball is out (as it was in a Tah hand)??? Very strange.
Scrum 5m out for Tahs
Fatcat in
Bonus point, Tahs
Fatcat a bit sore, hopefully not another one down!
30-6 Tahs, 15 to go.

now the Tahs stuff up a gilt-edged chance from quick turnover after Quade tackled heavily again

 

[cyclopath]

Again, a great Reds opportunity is snuffed by aggressive Tah defence. That is what is winning this. A huge difference in committment.

Worst Reds performance since Lions beat them at Suncorp in 2009.

Outclassed, out-enthused and simply embarrassed.

Pack have been embarrassed. Link should pick Liam Gill next weekend.

Well the Rebels don't seem like SUCH a clusterfuck now?

Rob Horne > AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)
TPN > Moore
Mowen > Higginbotham
Douglas > Simmons

 

[BRIX]

All I'm thinking about now is how the Reds fans talk it up. Talking up their team and Chambers chance of 13. They're getting spanked around the park. Tahs are nothing short of a well oiled MACHINE.

IMO Moore and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) had great games yesterday. I think Cooper might be sweating, though.

 

[cyclopath]

Now Timani on - he is a big dude.
Chariots off.
? McKibbin on

IMO Moore and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) had great games yesterday. I think Cooper might be sweating, though.

They are excellent players however, TPN has a much greater impact than Moore and that what the Wallabies are missing. Likewise, AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) is a great defender but he isn't a dominant tackler like Horne.

 

[BRIX]

Yes. Liam Gill definitely has to start for the Reds next week

 

[Tangawizi]

And well played to the Tahs. Totally dominant tonight.

 

[cyclopath]

Rob Horne > AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)
TPN > Moore
Mowen > Higginbotham
Douglas > Simmons

Nup, Moore over TPN, Horne and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) much of a muchness this weekend, Horne wouldn't oust him on that, Mowen shaded Higgers tonight, agree Douglas good tonight.

 

[cyclopath]

Baxter off - Tah scrum has been very solid.
