Reds look OK – about 7/10. They are defending well and making the most of the Saders endless mistakes. Hynes is having a stormer while the Reds backrow of Braid, Higgers and Taylor are dominating.

The Saders are all over the place like a mad womens shit. Losing crucial l/o’s and turning the ball over when close to the Reds line. Content to kick away a fair bit of possesion which, when you consider who bad their handling is, might no be a bad option

Juan Cote:

Saders would be really pissed witht eh way they played. They made heaps of chances and in some respects looked the better team but soooo many handling errors. Maybe the conditions. They kicked a fair bit of ball away early but looked the stronger team physically

If Queensland played more day games against these NZ sides, we would win every game. NZ sides wouldn’t be able to handle the heat

Juan Cote:

Reds would be happy. Their defence was outstanding and the set piece was pretty good also. The back row went well in the first half and the hands looked pretty slick also.

Best for the Reds, Higgers, Morahan, Braid and the second rowers worked hard all night. Hynes had a dynamite game at no. 15 until he was replaced at H/T

Reds players staying ont he field and mingling with the crowd – nice touch.

Lets hope the other boys get some good snaps
