I love the voiceover on that video.
Poor Tim Gavin really wore one there for sticking up for Fitzy getting his head stomped on.

Took the words right out of my mouth!
Both Moore and Horwill still around to get some revenge!

Looked the same after the Rebels match...
The best part of the old clip is how each of the French players managed to look entirely innocent of all charges. Genuinely shocked that they'd been carded for king hits and head stomps.

I think that this is more the reason:
"Rugby fans are also saving their cash for the Bledisloe Cup later this year which will sell out Suncorp Stadium."
With the extortionate costs that are the Bledisloe tickets people have to make a choice - Go to the Bled & nothing else or go to the other games and not the Bled.

But the price of the Bledisloe in 2012 was roughly the same as it is this year - I remember having to remortgage the house then as well.
He's coming too!

Just on the crowd, the fact it's a long weekend and our participation sports are giving us a break means that some of us are getting out of town.
Having said that, I've also turned down a couple of tickets to watch the reds from the corporate box this year. Too frustrating. But that just makes me hungrier to watch the wallabies - living vicariously through the success of the Brums, the Tahs and Qld B sorry Qld A sorry the Force only gets you so far.....

SOO substantially increased their ticket prices this year.
The Wallabies tickets are significantly cheaper.

I think we should look to run them off their feet. The French are at the end of a long season and Top 14 rugby is often quite slow. A quick game, as long as we can match their physicality should open them up.

I've been giving that some thought. If it were me, the instructions would be:
1, Smash 'em early. Never, ever, give the Frogs an early leg up because once they start playing well they are next to impossible to stop.
2, Get up in their faces on defence and suffocate them. Line speed will be key. You want to exert so much pressure on their ball that they start to lose their rag a bit. Once you get a French team arguing with each other they're yours.
3, Nothing fancy in the first quarter of the game. Play good field position, win your set pieces and make your tackles.
4, Run that big French pack around. Make them defend a lot and get them blowing hard.
5, Keep the score board ticking over. Take all the points on offer and give them nothing easily.
6, Test their 10/12 channel by running plenty of big bodies at pace through there. Foley should be using the inside ball a lot and have the likes of Cliffy, Carter, Moore and Fardy rumbling up the guts.
