Brumbies v Waratahs, Rnd 7 2020 GIO Stadium Sunday 15 Mar 16:05

I'm starting to battle with Penney's selections. He keeps talking about taking responsibility for your performance, but there seem to be no consequences. Staniforth and Newsome must be really running out of credit points.

Funny that Abel and Ramm were dropped to the bench, I thought they were a long way from being our worst last week. Ramm in particular I thought has had one and a half pretty solid games. Nawaganitawase may have a greater long term upside, but IMO he's a year off Super level yet, particularly in terms of strength, whereas I think Ramm has stepped straight up.

It is good to see Tafa on the bench ahead of McCauley.

Nawaganitawase is just a defensive liability, I would be running multiple units at him all game, he will either miss all of them through procrastination or get a intercept

 

[Brumby Jack]

^ He'll have Kata running at him.

Thoughts and prayers.

Fair play to the lad though, he knows the way to the try-line. All he needs to do is score more tries than he leaks (commonly known as the Folau formula) and he's surely done his job.

 

[Finsbury Girl]

I reckon the tahs could burgle a win

I think you mean the Beale- formula, Izzy could tackle.

 

[Brumby Jack]

Game going ahead as planned

 

[Derpus]

Kata looks the business. Shame hes not an Aussie lad.

He just wouldn’t be in the right place to do it.........

I think even the most one eyed tahs fan would at this point struggle to see that

It would be miraculous, but hopefully they can stay switched on for 80 minutes. They've been in contention against some good teams but then shit the bed.

Penny given lot of players leeway by not making major changes - Hopefully he sees something we don’t !

I think he is looking despairingly at it. The cupboard is bare so he cooking with the scraps he's got. More gruel anyone?

 

[Up the Guts]

Wonder whether they'll bother with this fixture now the NZ isolation rules will put an end to the comp.

 

[Brumby Jack]

^ it has nothing to do with NZ so is going ahead

 

[Pfitzy]

Yep. Finish the round, lock the doors. Last to leave, turn out the lights.

 

[Brumby Jack]

If the Brumbies win by 25 with a bonus point and the comp is shut down, they'll finish first overall.

 

[Brumby Runner]

Good motivation BJ.

 

[Brumby Jack]

Actually the Sharks got up so they go to 24 points and the best the Brumbies can do is 23 but have played 1 less game so we'll take it.
