Round 7: Reds v Brumbies - Friday April 7 @ Suncorp 7:35pm

[Confucius Say]

I am liking this version of the Reds. A lot more feeling in their tackles and seem to be up for it. But Brumbies get a sniff and they take advantage.

Kiwi refs don’t recognise forward passes unless they’re blatant

I’d love to say it was forward, but it definitely wasn't.

 

[Micheal]

Rewatching it after a break for dinner, that Blyth card was gross. It’s not often I get squeamish but it was just so reckless and unnecessary. Would be happy to see a ban for that.

 

[Ignoto]

Zander and Henry don't deserve contracts. Seems to all too often neither of them can turn up to a game.

Both committed stupid penalties that have resulted in a try by the Brumbies.

 

[Misunderstood fan]

Tate is back.

Henry has been bloody solid tonight I thought? The usual for him imo. The advancing penalty was silly however

Zander can fuck off to second grade though

 

[Derpus]

Tate and Petaia tearing arse out there. Despite the Yellow i thought Wright has also been excellent. And Slips looking good and heavily involved to round it out.

 

[Dan54]

Full reds don't exist in Super Rugby. 20 miinute red is the highest sanction.

No can still have a full red for punches etc. That deserved one.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

They must still think Zander is a kid with his baby face but he’s so far below standard it’s ridiculous. I don’t know much about Brisbane Club Rugby but I’d bet there are 3/4 blokes that would towel him up in every aspect.

This is the first time I’ve thought Wright is the leading candidate for wallabies 15. I’ve really noticed his 2nd play maker efforts tonight as well as his kicking.

Was never really convinced until tonight.
That being said the same could be said for Petaia. Both are in great form.

 

[Sword of Justice]

Liam Wright could be a perfect fit for Eddie at 7. A little bit over the ball and a bigger body with some line out and decent metres in contact.

 

[drewprint]

Yep Wright is playing well, been working into this season nicely. I’d love to see him in the mix at national level again.

Edit: if Skelton gets a guernsey it’s very helpful to have a jumping option at 7 too.

 

[Marce]

I fell asleep during the game. I'll have to settle watching Cowboys-Dolphins on live and then the replay of this one lol

 

[Rugby follower]

Brumbies’s hookers have a real issue throwing straight

 

[Derpus]

Red 12 aint playing great

 

[qwerty51]

What’s a full red then if that is not?

Something deliberate like a punch, stamp, knee etc

 

[RugbyReg]

Gees we are sloppy. Brumbies should run away with this now.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Red 12 aint playing great

Just been hooked
