Posted this under Reds 2013 thread but it might come in useful for anyone getting along to this game - even Tahs fans just up in Brisbane for the weekend if you can get in the Brewery Tour before going to the match..... Think you get 4 beers out of that.
Reds have announced a "XXXX Mates Membership" for the Tahs match.
It's $35 to get a silver seat which is only $5 more than what a seat costs on Ticketek, and that difference is almost cancelled out once you add on the Ticketek Booking fees of minimum $4.65.
So considering you get a scarf, stubby cooler and brewery tour in this "membership" it looks like a pretty good deal. Very good actually, especially if you win the trip to XXXX Island.

anyone remember the antics in the corresponding match last year...
Rob Horne shoving Dom Shipperly in the back whilst he was on the ground and Tom Carter pushing Digby in the face when he turned over the ball....
Everyone remembers what happened with Tom, but Rob Horne would have felt red-faced after he missed that tackle on Shipperly in the 80th minute.

I remember TPN's try not being allowed because of a forward pass that was decided not to be in the end...New Year, New Coach, New Start. 2013 Year of The Tahs!!
As much as I'm trying to forget it, wasn't it Alcock who missed the crucial tackle?
Now that we've got that sorted, let's never speak of it again.

I thought Alcock ran out of the line initially, but Shipperly also stepped back inside Horne

Yeah, Alcock was running across field to cover Shipperley. Shipperley had no-one outside of him, and stepped back on the inside of Horne, who was wrong footed and didn't even lay a hand on him. Alcock slipped the tackle, but he was Horne's man all along. Horne has had a habit of setting himself on his heels too early, allowing him to be cleanly stepped.
edit: gotta be Horne's man, surely. Horne should've moved up with Alcock, but remained too flat footed and allowed him to be stepped. That said, Alcock does bear some blame too.
edit2: gees, Horne was lazy on that last play. But really, the Reds shouldn't have won that. If it wasn't the first round of the year, you'd think that Tahs would've never have screwed up so badly in giving the ball back, and not chasing the kick.

It wouldn't be a Reds-Tahs clash without reliving some controversy from the previous year... Passion is good for the game

I hope so, in terms of ratings and publicity it makes sense to have the blockbuster games to bookend the season..

I wonder, if that last tackler on Shipperley had been Folau, what would have happened?
We'll never know, but if it had, then the Reds & Waratahs dynamics may have been very different for the remainder of the 2012 season. You can understand why the Waratahs want this player so badly.
Not one of Tom's smarter suggestions to McKibbin to kick the ball in the first place. Can never understand why he didn't hold the pill and wind the clock down.
