Waratahs v Reds Rnd 1 2016

Alas thev



Fuck that, this is the festival of hate, we are coming to Sydney to put the Tahs season in a body bag, and unlike Johnny, we will succeed!

Remember at the end of Karate Kid when Miyagi squeezed the nose of the Cobra Kai sensei. I see Woody squeezing Gibsons nose. This is not a metaphor symbolising the triumph of Woody as a patient and caring father figure encouraging self belief in his charges to beat the Tahs and their morally bereft, vicious and ultimately cowardly culture. I actually see Woody walking up to Gibson and squeezing his nose.

Well a certain Qld player is known for his use of cocaine.

Do we still have the self belief to have a entire festival of hate. Surely RG has beaten us down to an morning tea of hate? A cucumber sandwich with the crust cut off of hate. Or an ad break of hate before the real festival begins?

 

[Scoey]

As Paarlbok would say.....

Tahs by 50.

 

[Scrubber2050]

Tahs easily favourites.

but but but - Tahs will be full of self confidence and belief (some might say a bit too much)
IF IF the Reds take it to them particularly playing to their strength (the forwards) Tahs might just shit themselves sufficiently for the mighty REDS TO WIN

I blame it on the Southerners corrupting him from ventures over the tweed. Look at other 'Qld' players, Sailor and Tuqiri were all clean until crossing over and playing in Blue

I'll forever be optimistic after 2012's "do you believe in miracles"

Trying to find one reds player in that video who hasn't joined the stampede.

Of all the players that touched the ball in that video, none are still there.

Genia, Ioane, Lucas, Hanson, Tapuai, Gill (ok but leaving), Harris, Shipperley

 

[Braveheart81]

Almost all the Tahs players involved in the stuff up are gone too.

It is the Festival of Pity.

ATM many of the ardent Tahs supporters feel sorry for what the Reds supporters are going through.
Been There Done That and we didn't like it. We feel sorry for you.

This is almost enough for me to try one of Sully's cucumber sandwiches. [munch munch] Hmm, quite tastey Sully, definite hint of mild irritation. Nice.

I fear that Cyclo's awesome gif is the only thing that will get me through the festival of pity.

I dunno, I NEVER have an easy feeling when it's Tahs v Reds. Been burned too many times. If we win, it's Robot dance time, though!

 

[Scoey]

It's some small comfort that you still feel a sense of unease Cyclo but seriously mate, this one is done and dusted. Your guys will have won by half time.

 

[Ash]

I reckon that if there's a market for the Reds to score < 10 points, you should be all over it.

What we want is to get a gander at what the hell game plan that trickie and team has. Tahs up front is perfect for this. No more BS, what the heck is going on with:
a) game plan
b) real personnel selections
c) intent

Look, I shouldnt say this, but honest, 'tahs get in their face. Just take every opportunity. And the rest of us, let's actually see what's in this Reds side.

I repeat 'tahs, get right up ' em. I'd like to see the Reds under stress. Right now. And I could not be happier if the response is some rugby.

Not counting on it though.

Paddy Ryan at #1 is interesting because that leaves Tilse and Robinson two looseheads on the bench unless he picks outside the main squad to go with Cameron Orr (who I can't remember playing in a trial?) and Matt Sandell.

Assume the bench would be

16. Latu
17. Robinson
18. Tilse
19. Lousi
20. Dempsey
21. Lucas
22. Hegarty
23. Robinson

What crowd are we expecting?

A nice follow on from the 7s would be nice.
Im heading along.
