Rnd 8: Reds v Kings

[dru]

Kings ground (the ball) after hard work, missed (by the ref) and called held up.

 

[USARugger]

Breakdown work is so sloppy. Seems to be a trend under Stiles?

 

[USARugger]

Forcing the offload, lose meters, turn over the ball.

Stop forcing the fucking offload when it isn't on. QC (Quade Cooper) and Kerevi are so regularly guilty of this shit it's unreal

 

[dru]

Two difficult passes to Nabuli who dealt with neither. Both if caught were tries. Come on bloke, catch the thing no matter how tricky.

 

[BLR]

I would like to see the replay of that Kings break, he seemed to just about be clotheslined.

 

[dru]

Mafi is awesome.

 

[Shaker]

How is George Smith still the Reds best player at his age

 

[dru]

Hunt!!!

Reds are lucky they have a dominant scrum.

 

[dru]

Our front row really working.

Luck or hard work?

[dru]

Kings dont mind flinging the ball around.

Well, their players catch the ball..

 

[dru]

Luck

Hahaha!

Strangely though I dont agree.

 

[No4918]

Luck or hard work?

Maybe it is luck? Doesn't look like much hard work been done on just about every other area.

We have a better front row than the Kings. Against most teams they would not have relieved so much pressure.

They remind me of the first season Force, didn't have the greatest players in the world but tried their hearts out. I actually like it, why the hell can't we just have 3 conferences?

Yep. The Kings, if they have enough funding, can create a competitive team. Too many other things against them.

 

[Simon.]

At least five or six bombed tries in that half.

It takes a team as lowly as the Kings to really shed light on how truly terrible the Reds' handling actually is, because then you see them setting up chance after chance and butchering them.

Has she been many times before? Have thought of taking my 3.5 year old daughter to Suncorp for a game but I'm not quite sure she's up to it yet. I took her to Ballymore last year for an NRC match and she was so excited until we got there and she realised we were just watching and not playing Rugby. :-/

She's 4 and a half & this is her second game - she loves it
