Have to admit, the Ten's were better than I thought it'd be. That heat was craptacular, thankfully the stadium management didn't enforce the seating restrictions. Although, it probably demonstrates to Duco that they need to piss off with allocated seating (and re-adjust the cost), first in best dress and let everyone else work it out.
Give the players some time to adjust to how to effectively play 10's and I think it'll really be an entertaining game. More importantly, gotta feel sorry for those blokes that went down with those injuries, none of them looked like a simple rolled ankle!
In any event, they still need to move the tournament to a cooler timeslot or they just need to get around 1000 of those 'mist fans' and have them in the stands.
For those concerned about the quality of the Aussie players - Saia popped down to catch up with some mates of his and apologised for reeking of chlorine. Turns out Bernie made them all jump into the pool after the match for more conditioning. The Brumbies atleast are more concerned with playing the Saders in two weeks than they are with their games last weekend. So I'd imagine a lot of players are coming in with extremely heavy workloads for a taper in a weeks time.
