NRC RD2: Sydney Rays vs Canberra Vikings

[Slim 293]

Latinipulu nearly gets his second in the corner, but just loses it over the line.........

HT Vikings 28 - Sydney 7

Tahs recruitment please take note this is what a light mobile pack looks like vs a real forward pack. Getting smashed, steamrolled and owned.

I feel sorry for the young Rays flyhalf. Young and struggling at this level.

What he's doing there is beyond me. He's clearly out of his depth. I'm all for talent id and may be the kid has promise but he should at least play a season at 10 in grade first instead of throwing him to the wolves in the NRC. Crazy.

Could not even make 10 in his colts side..Lots of surprise Randwick selections bought in late.

Seriously? Latinpulu deserves to be there. But not a young kid well out of his depth. Regardless of what club he comes from. And I'm an ex-Randwick player.

Second half begins........

Hansen has come on for Peni, who again, I haven't been impressed by.........

100 % agree

Mason is at the Eagles and Hegarty is in Japan. Who else can play 10 in Tahs depth?

 

[Slim 293]

Hawera turns what looked like a bit of indecision into a beautiful short pass to Ikitau who slices through the defence............

After some hit ups from the forwards, Lonergan picks up the ball from the back of the ruck and dives over.

Hawera converts:

Vikings 35 - Syd 7

Where's Rohan Saifoli? The young bloke from Uni is pretty handy.

He's on the Eagles' bench this week.........

 

[WorkingClassRugger]

Ball is spilled and instead of playing it MacCauley tries to give it a little kick. Are you kidding me?

 

[WorkingClassRugger]

He's on the Eagles' bench this week...

Incredible.

 

[WorkingClassRugger]

The commentators have a woody for Swinton. I've never thought much of him. Sort of player that most of his toughness comes from his haircut.

 

[WorkingClassRugger]

I'm not even supporting the Rays and this is frustrating to watch. I'm done with this game. Vikings by plenty.

 

[Slim 293]

Vikings replace their props, and Mitch Short coming off for the Rays.........

 

[Blackadder]

Embarrassing

 

[Slim 293]

Mack Hansen bags a try near the left hand corner after some soft tackles from the Rays.........

Hawera converts another tricky one:

42 - 7

 

[Blackadder]

42 - 7. The Rays look lost and are getting steam rolled

 

[WorkingClassRugger]

Vikings replace their props, and Mitch Short coming off for the Rays...

Why? He wasn't the issue.
