Big call dropping Howard Mnisi

 

[PaarlBok]

Screw that, he just needs to wear it in a man bun

Paarl Gym boys hate pony tails.

Game of the round.. Poey to show everyone his number is 7

Rubbish penalty

I sense refereeing issues in the Brumbies' near future. Seems like Peyper is looking for any issues he can find.

Hopefully the discipline improves.

3 steals from Pocock already

Peyps- "if you're going to contest every ruck it'll come at a cost"

Wtf does that mean?

It's an interesting point that was just made that if you contest every breakdown you're going to be penalised for every little breach of the laws that you might otherwise get away with.

It's mostly not the player going for the ball but the tackler being slow to roll away and improving the chance of the steal ever so slightly.

Really good try. Tomane hit that ball beautifully. Great hands so flat to the line.

I love a proper on-the-burst hit up! Tomane was flying

TK too much of a beast to stop

like too big mofo's with speed should hit the ball

Wow... To'omua crocked. Was he brought back from injury too quickly?

 

[Tomikin]

Bo diggy ... Speight .. everything good there .. and Ita

 

[BDA]

Brumbies have to watch their discipline. lots of wayward tackles. good aggression but it needs to be controlled

looks like it. looked to be favouring one leg after about 5 minutes

Lilo decides he better score tries himself under the posts to make the kick easier. Although after last week...
