Reds vs Brumbies, 2011R16

[Victorian Reds Fan]

Average by the Reds so far, but good to see Lucas score.

Jeez Quade is carrying on at every tackle. Whats his problem? Somebody with a single digit on his back should slap him.

Agree with this. It's as if he think its touch footy.

 

[Tangawizi]

Yes it is like the opposite.

Very good half from the Brumbies. Much more enthusiastic and disciplined than the Reds.

Link needs to get them fired up in a hurry or the 12 year hoodoo will last at least one more.

Brumbies to hit the wall at the 60 minute mark.

It is a bit silly saying it now, but for me this was going to be a danger game for the Reds. After last weeks 'test match' like game there was always going to be fatigue, but more importantly a chance of complacency creeping in. There is also no chance that the Brumbies wouldn't turn up being a derby and given there lack of success this will be their big remaining game.

I think McKenzie should of used some of his better subs as starters for some fresh legs and people who are chomping at the bit to show their wares. For my money Shaztz should have started over higginbotham and Hanson over Fainga'a (although Fainga'a is one of the few who is keen every week, hanson is to good to leave on the bench permanently).

Only halftime, so hopefully the reds still win it. I am a tahs supporter but it would be good for an Aus team to get the minor premiership and the home semi/final.

Ioane knocked out by a sloppy Vaea forearm.

FUCK!

 

[GC]

Looks like a very serious injury to Diggers. Disaster for reds and wallabies.

 

[nathan]

FUCK. That's our RWC over. Mitchell and Iaone. We're screwed. Thanks Vaea, thanks.

 

[DPK]

Pretty sloppy high tackle; that said, we've seen worse.

Crowd chanting "Off". Ah Queenslanders, all class

 

[Slim 293]

Dear Greg Martin,

Shut the fuck up.

It wasn't intentional. Reckless, and could be cited.

 

[ACT Crusader]

Didn't Diggers duck his head slightly into that tackle?

 

[Maroon Army]

There's no point getting angry at Ita Vaea. He's not that sort of player and it was cleary accidental.

 

[Bruwheresmycar]

"Involuntary Planking"

:lmao:

 

[matty_k]

He did a little.

 

[Slim 293]

It wasn't anything malicious... Ioane was going down and Vaea just went in for the tackle...

It's unfortunate, but Vaea will probably be cited...

 

[GC]

He still hasn't moved. Fuck that's bad. More important things then rugby now.

 

[Maroon Army]

Time for Chambers to shine...

 

[GC]

Finally pings them for not releasing. Been doing it all night.

 

[Blue]

Accidental. Move on. Any news on him?

 

[Maroon Army]

Alexander has been a bit of a mess at scrum time.
