Force player without support, but Reds jackaler put his hands down past the ball and is penalised.

Force lineout 20m out, 1 to go.

Holmes smashed. Force reserve back has a half gap but drops the ball with the try line beckoning.

That was actually the tackle of Gill knocking out that ball.

Full time hooter goes. Penalty Reds from the scrum. Genia kicks it out. Game over.

Reds win 18 - 6.

Fuck that's a huge upset I'd say. Totally unexpected.

However, the horrible weather played right into the Reds hands as their set piece dominated the Force, and I think that's what won the game.

With Thomson in the backrow, the Reds look more threatening at the breakdown too. I'd say they worked hard on the breakdown during the last week.

Reds also did a bit better at the breakdown than the Force, which surprised me but as also important in their win.

Reds defence still falls into a rabble at times

Genia says it all in the post match interview.
Along the lines of

"Simple game plan because of the conditions, play it in their half, it's boring rugby but you get results"

Then tells Gregan he's looking very handsome this evening

Genia hoofs it out & that's all folks. Hardly a classic but if I were a Reds supporter I'd be a lot happier than this time last week, or yesterday for that matter.
Winner winner chicken dinner! Drinking Boags Premium all night as expectations were low. But excitement level at full time is high.

Already got a winner for try of the season!

Bucks night? You'll have no memory of this if done right. Mark my words, enjoy it or at least enjoy the stories told of the night you have no memory of.

My own bucks, first thing I remember is my bride getting stuck into me when i come home with a stubby plaster cast onto my hand and arm
