18 missed tackles in the first half, hope they get an absolute serve in the rooms.

Strange performance from the Rebs, started well, then seemed to lose their way, looked very ponderous for most of the half, then closed out the first half strongly.

To be fair the schizo-bloos played their part in the variable tempo and direction of the game, its almost as if they slowly work out what to do, implement it for 10 minutes and then go "f*&$ it, lets try something different".

Against rhe phase play the defence is good but like other weeks once it gets helter skelter they all look lost. Also lots of ineffectual first up takles allowing the blues freedom to dance. Furthermore do they do any practice at catching kickoffs or high ball

Well, we do score a lot more second half points than first half. So there's that.

The defence tonight is like a throw back to the Hill years. Need to tighten up big time.

I'm sorry but thats fucking disgraceful from your captain. He just gifted the Blues a try

FWIW I count 14 Aus-born players in the Rebels team today, with Cocker, Harris & Hawkins all in the squad as well...

So that's 12 foreign-born players in the squad. Reckon there would be close to 35 (full squad) in Aus Super Rugby teams

Leafa, Hagan, Thomson, Debreczeni, Naivalu, Ellison, Stirzaker, Retallick, Matsushima - that's the 9

its hard to fathom how the rebs are only 6 points behind! Bloos detirmined to make a match of it - by letting the rebs back into the game.
