In the immortal words of the great man, Van Humphries, we absolutely rolled those @#$&s tonight. So much to like about that performance and a whole lot of WTF about the Cru. What on earth has happened to them?
Good win for the Reds last night. I like how they went narrow and tighter in the first 20 minutes to test the defence and get some continuity in their game. A few of the pigs were quite prominent in what our old friend Lee Grant would call the tight loose. When things got a bit static I didn't...
We just need to find that right combo of grunt, mongrel and line out ability. I've been impressed by Swinton this year. He's clearly worked on the aspects of his game that have landed him in trouble and kept the good bits.
That's another excellent win for the Rebels. Their attack looks fantastic with Gordon and Kellaway running the show. Both should be Wallaby starters (the goal kicking still worries me though). The pigs were also good I thought.
Bell is fantastic in the loose, but would he have the motor to play in the back row? He could develop it, but it would require some serious aerobic work I would think.
