But the Brumbies jersey is substantially white. Would that be any better? But I agree it is a nightmare to watch these 2 teams.

They also have an all blue jersey...
By the way... Chapman is the king in a defensive lineout...

Why isn't there more love for Phibbs
I've only watched him play 3 times. But he has played extremely well each time. One was last weekend, and nothing needs to be said about that, he was superb. Once was a few weeks earlier when he replaced Valentine and it was like daylight and darkness. And again tonight. The Brumbies back line looked so well oiled while he was on the field. One noticeable difference I thought between when he was on the field and White (no criticism of White, he played well enough) was that his passes were hitting exactly 50cm in front of Giteau's chest without him having to check his run, giving him all the time in the world to playback.
Also McCabe should have been in the centers from the beginning.

He's always been good in my opinion and I'm glad that we have two quality players in that position from which to choose. Mr Reliable is right.

Moore has been in great form and he was my man of the match tonight. It has been obvious for a few weeks I think that he has been trying to lift the team by his own efforts. There is also no doubt he is the best line out thrower we have.
I thought Mitchell Chapman had another blinder as well.

I've gotta put it out there... Despite the constant TPN manlove that goes on...
Moore is consitently the better player...
I love TPN as much as anyone, but between the average lineout throwing to the constant time on the sideline through injury... he's no Stephen Moore...
The one criticism I've had of Moore in the past was his ability to give away penalties at the breakdown, and he hasn't done that for a long while now...

I agree, to a point. Moore is generally the more consistent of the two, and I would start him. TPN has certainly been injured a lot as we all know. I would say his lineout throwing this year has been much, much better than previous years. But it's like one of those labels that get attached to players...like Beale and his tackling, which clearly is much better too. I think if both were fully fit, there would be very little to separate them, which would be a great thing.
I think by the end of the year, subject to injury, they will play roughly the same minutes.
We have two top quality players that can go flat out for 40 odd minutes

A big pat on the back to some Brumbies supporters,especially the kids next to us.
You were pretty vocal, far better then Tahs supporters.
