Reds v Force, Super Rugby Round 5, 2013

[Paradox]

Cooper gets kick. 9 - 6 Reds.

 

[Dan54]

Yep HJ, I must admit it a bugbear of mine it not picked up enough, I was one who wholeheartedly agreed with the one you mention.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Meat pie to alfie Mafi.

Force 11-9 with kick to come.

Eberson adds the extras from very wide out. WA 13- QLD 9 32 1/2 min gone.

WA possession so far 60%.

 

[Paradox]

Albi M awesome break between Gill and Fainga'a from lineout. Try to Force in corner to Mafi.

 

[Paradox]

Great kick from sideline has score at 9-13 Force.

 

[Paradox]

Cooper starting to get the jitters.

 

[Paradox]

Ebersohn playing a lot flatter tonight. Looks good.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

QUirke is looking injured. Limping around.

Force are playing out of their skins, and are making it hard for the Reds.

Not sure that they can sustain this for the full 80 minutes,

Cooper nails another penalty from 35 out. Force 13 Reds 12. 37 min gone

 

[Paradox]

12-13 Force.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Force sub. Ma'afu off Falconer on.

 

[Paradox]

Godwin showed pace there to pull down Chris FS.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

The young'uns are doing well tonight. Gill, F-Sautia, and Godwin.

Siren goes for Oranges.

 

[Paradox]

Force lose lineout after siren. They should have just thrown it into the turf. 1/2 time.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

And there is another mungo "hit the ball" dead from the Force after a sneaky chip kick from QC (Quade Cooper).

 

[Dan54]

And another penalty not called???

 

[something]

halftime force leading by 1. QC (Quade Cooper) has had an absolute shocker, running around like a headless chook. that last play was just plain stupid. Force are playing really well as a unit and it is exciting to watch! CFS has had a bit of impact but i reckon genia has been the best of the backs so far for the reds.

 

[boyo]

I wish that Tim Horan would settle on one pronunciation for CFS.

 

[qwerty51]

And another penalty not called???

Couldnt believe my eyes or ears. Ref know the laws?

 

[Bairdy]

I only tuned in for the last 2 minutes of the first half, but could anyone describe how the Force and Reds have gone, and the game itself?

 

[Hugh Jarse]

That was the most mungolike of all of them. Much more blatant than the Halai Penalty Try in Blues vs Canes.

Force are going well. They just about deserve their lead.
