NRC Rd 2: Qld Country v Canberra Vikings - Sunday 3pm

[Adam84]

front-row secured the field position, so its fitting that a prop scored that try. Harry Hooper over for first points of the match

 

[Bobby Sands]

Was that Wihongi turnover? It was good stuff

 

[Daveyyyyy]

That kick for touch off the penalty shows me that QC (Quade Cooper) should be utilising that wind as much as possible this half

 

[Adam84]

QLD Country are missing their penetration they have had in previous years with Tupou, Timu and CFS

 

[Bobby Sands]

I think they look pretty handy!

 

[Finsbury Girl]

They definitely need to be looking to use Stewart and Campbell a bit more in space.

Wilson is an absolute beast.

 

[Finsbury Girl]

Best halfback in the country by a mile.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Paddy James run great angles. Educated, dare I say it Nudgee footballer..

 

[Bobby Sands]

Harry Wilson the rugby god.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Muirhead a very good QLD back that never got a look in in our system unfortunately. Played 2nd XV at BSHS.

 

[Finsbury Girl]

Great work from the pigs

 

[Finsbury Girl]

I must say Stewart is starting to look at home @ 12.

 

[Adam84]

Muirhead a very good QLD back that never got a look in in our system unfortunately. Played 2nd XV at BSHS.

Pretty sure he played a bit of 1st XV Rugby, and played for Brisbane City in the inaugural year of the NRC. But yeah, he certainly worked hard for his higher honours.

 

[Finsbury Girl]

I keep saying it, Harry Hockings is a dead set freak.

 

[Adam84]

Solid effort by this young Queensland Country forward pack, there's no shortage of physicality despite their young age

He and Kerevi played mainly 2nd XV behind that legendary BSHS team.

 

[Adam84]

Bit like Jock Campbell

 

[Adam84]

Solid physical game, i thought it was the Queensland Country forward pack which set the conditions for that win, very impressive by all 8 of them.

They've been very good. Work hard and the set piece is excellent. Core of the Reds for the next umpteen years.

The weak link for me is 7 need a Jeeps man there

Excellent win to the mighty Country.

Cannot wait until next week, I'll be at Woolhara Oval to watch the boys smash some cockroaches.

 

[Finsbury Girl]

I should add, by all accounts 2 great games on the day by 2 young QLD 5/8s
