Round 5, Sunwolves v Reds, 16/3 @ Tokyo

[Shaker]

He's 20 metres from the goddamn sideline. Hows he not making touch. Embarrassing.

 

[Up the Guts]

Calling it now Higginbotham's try saver as good as Gregan's legendary shot.

 

[Adam84]

All that pressure and try came from Lucas missing touch on a penalty... there's no room for simple mistakes like that... If he doesn't have distance in his kicks then why's he taking them

 

[Dctarget]

I'm going to ignore this entire insipid performance by the Reds and instead focus on that tackle from Higginbotham. Jesus that was good.

 

[The Honey Badger]

Nice try that one

Hes a teenager and shouldnt be the starting 10 for a Super rugby side?

 

[RedsHappy]

Time for a Reds Positivity thread

 

[Shaker]

This is hard to watch. Being completely dominated outside of set pieces. Ugly performance.

It's up there, innit

He's still a professional. Lack of experience can't excuse that kick.

 

[Adam84]

Jeez... Reds make a break, run away from their support then get turned over because they're isolated

 

[Adam84]

He's still a professional. Lack of experience can't excuse that kick.

Its more simple, if he doesn't have distance in his kicks then he shouldn't be taking those kicks

 

[gel]

"rush defence" or just plain offside?

Many of the rucks in that half the outside backs are well in front of where the ball is, let alone the last feet.

 

[Up the Guts]

Reds make an astounding amount of tacklebreaks for a team that struggles so much to get over the advantage line.

 

[Adam84]

get real tired of teams with inferior scrums just collapsing on their own feed..

I am enjoying the quality of rugby from the Sunwolves…they really are proving to be the real deal this season. Sure not likely finalists but certainly big improvers and playing attractive brand of rugby that will win them more fans as well as get them a couple more wins than last season.

the guy was held up and on his knees and had no leverage. still a munting great effort though​

HowFT did "Ben Gunter" not get an aus soup contract?

that Reds halfback and his stupid little step or two before every pass is a wrench in the gears

aside from Reds maul try have they even been in the 22?

Reds a bit reminiscent of the Blues in that there seems stuff-all potential for much invention

 

[Brumby Runner]

Lucas is not the No 10 the Reds are looking for. Just another shoveller. Stewart looks better at 15 than 10.

Sunwolves No 9 is a very good player.

Iam liking the crowds they are pulling. How can Sanzaar even be thinking of cutting them.

Yeh still not solved the 10 dilemma but agree that Stewart looks alright at 15. Booth as half for sunwolves been up there as one of the form 9's for super rugby. Sadly Sorovi I can't say the same.
