Rebels vs Brumbies, Friday 9 March AAMI Park, 7.30pm

[Kenny Powers]

A life long Canberra public servants wardrobe has more variety than the Brumbies.

Cant work out why the simulation penalty wasn't called.

It was very Soccerish.

Congrats to the Rebels played well and deserved win. Most importantly evolving week to week.

I’m not sure what was worse tonight......... the Brumbies general play or Mafi’s character?

The brumbies...

Great to see the rebels finally firing. Wessels is a good coach.

 

[Slim 293]

The brumbies.

They certainly leave me the most disappointed, but at least that was somewhat expected..........

My question is how McKellar has taken a one dimensional team and made it regress.

Every week from now forward McKellar and Hewat are at the Brumbies is collateral damage to both the Brumbies and Aussie rugby.

Wessels... showing Oz rugby good coaching isn't just a myth

I have to wonder if this Mckellars team or Lauries'? Mckellar has had zero coaching experience of any worth. We really need a fresh overhaul after SL but continued a system that wasn't working. it's absurd.

McCaffrey may be a decent bloke, but he doesn't look like the type that'll do his side any favours when talking to the ref

So frustrating to see happen. Makes you wonder how we would have done this season.

Well,

The Brumbies certainly don't look so good this year - perhaps they are not much worse than last year, but other teams have caught up and suddenly they look utterly rudderless.

 

[Brumby Runner]

Maybe time to sack the coach and let the players just do what they want. Worked a treat in 2004.

Damien Hill!

My only condition is the RA coach development guru does not endorse him! He was one half of the panel that recommended McKellar.

With the Wallaby laden backline the Brumbies have I expected more from them. I missed the first half due to junior rugby training but in the 2nd half I barely sighted TK and apart from Speight's strong carry to get over the line he didn't look impressive. Muirhead looked strong though - I'm not familiar with him, what's his history?

 

[Up the Guts]

Brumbies had nothing in attack but gee the Rebels are impressive. Mafi gets an A for his rugby performance and an F for his acting, needs to refine the pained moaning. With so many threats across the board the Rebels are shaping up to give any side in the comp a real run for their money.

Got home from Brisbane at 10pm and just finished watching replay. Absolutely brilliant. Well done Rebels. Three bonus points win to start the season.

Rebels worth awful early in the match for ball possession.....but then improved....still not quite gelling as much as a team but rather a team full of individually talented players.

Maddocks the wildcard outside of big name recruits from Force and elsewhere (e.g Genia).
