    Going to be a epic game for Reds fans, 33'000 out to watch the Highlanders last night..
    Looking at 40'000 strong crowd for next week with the Reds final hopes on the line.

    Injury Ward:
    Rob Simmons
    Chri F'Sautia
    Beau Robinson
    Liam Gill
    Digby Ioane

    I didn't realise Beau was injured, Higgers' elbow didn't look great either. Don't we count Horwill anymore?

    Could have held back until afer the Brumbies clash, brah. :)

    Kepu ruled out for the Tahs match tomorrow with a calf injury. Dunno about his longer prognosis, though.

    The Reds are missing Gill at the break down. Are he and Digby due back next week? Beau has been fairly disappointing this season in comparison to last but remains a significant weapon off the bench.

    If Simmons or CFS play next week I shall thereafter refer to them as Wolverine.

    Reds should win this by 50 after that performance by the Tahs against Brumbies.

    Sadly probably still miss the finals though.

    By 50? OK then. The Reds hardly looked stellar last night, and the Tah defence, as opposed to their inept (mostly) attack was pretty good. Reds ought to win, but I will be quite surprised if it is by 50.

    I fear next week will be far from a high scoring game, the Tahs strength(albeit few atm) are conducive with the Reds weaknesses..

    Reds should win, but i don't believe its going to be pretty nor will it be a massive score line.

    Reds v Tahs are never ever pretty to watch. Not in the last ten years anyway.

    Should be a good game to watch now as the Reds need a bonus point win. I personally think we are going to just fall short of the finals but hopefully won of the Saffa teams choke next week & the Reds get the bonus point win.

    The Reds will be wanting a free flowing game if they're looking at getting the bonus point wi... uh oh...

    I admit I was away & didn't see that game... but I hear it was a great game for scrum aficionados ;)

    Not that there's anything wrong with that!

    If he''s been suffering from pneumonia won''t Digby be a little short on fitness?

    We can win by one point, because Force, Lions and Cheetahs are going to play their best games of the season and help us. :D
