I thought last year after the Reds kindly taking a knee against the Tahs so as to grant the Brumbies a home final you guys were going to repay the favour last week pretty poor form from the Brumbies really.

The same Brumbies that the TAHs dominated last week who only looked like a b grade Subbie squad vs the mighty Reds who put the Rebels to the sword in Melbourne.. The team likely to finish 2nd in SRAU this year..

The underdog play is strong in this one.

Don’t know mate, I wasn’t the one claiming the Brumbies would have won if it weren’t for injuries/suspension.
Personally i thought the better team won on the day.

Well Same can be said about Thor, BPA, Mafi LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto), O'Connor, Paisami, Campbell and Stewart. Reds dont have any superiority complex... You got the best inside and outside centre in Australia possibly the world. The best Front Rower in the world who should clearly dominate all game. Campbell should be Wallaby fullback..
I mean our rag tag bunch of bums probably just shouldnt show up. Specially with the anointed ones in the backrow of Wilson and McReight, plus from what Ive read the future Australia 6 and Captain on the bench..
Sounds like unbeaten undefeated, Wallabies starting starts across the park or at least should be. whatever shall we do.. Reds by at least 14 and a bonus point

Yes, if your only source of rugby knowledge was G&GR forums that's what you would think!

Petaia has been given too much hype too early. Needs to concentrate on holding the ball and passing properly. At the moment it seems 'his ego is writing cheques his body can't cash'....Winger for now and just run.....

Anyway, silly buggers aside.
This should be a good game between the two best teams in the comp. I’ll be up in Queensland to go watch it so hoping for a good crowd.
I’m sure Brumbies want redemption after round 4, and for the Reds this is the biggest game since the lost the grand final last year to the Brumbies.
Plenty of reputations on the line, will be interesting to see who rises to the occasion.

That’s a bit fair-weather fan isn’t it, the reigning champions lose one game and the fans starting calling the players a rag-tag bunch of bums.

His first yellow was part of a team warning and therefore didn't count towards a 2 yellow for foul play condition. I think that's fair enough he was cynical in his second yellow but I don't think he warranted any further sanctions.I see Tom Cusack is in the Brumbies run-on side.
Didn't he receive two yellow cards last week, which equates to a red card, which normally leads to suspension.
Or did I imagine it? (It was a good bottle of Shiraz enjoyed during the game

I have to say, given the Brumbies institutionalised dominance of Australian rugby in the past 10 years, as well as their traumatic and crushing grand final win last year, if the reds so much as make it out of their dressing room door i will consider their performance a raging success

Only as good as your last start.. Reds beat Brumbies in Canberra and while we just scraped by the Tah's you dominated the Rebels.
