Reds v Blues, Round 11 2013, Attack of the Attack?

[Jets]

Had about 5 drops of rain here. Looks like it's all past now though. Should be a good night.

Really? Bugger! Fingers crossed it stays away then!

Reds v Blues has the potential to be a game full of attack so I am looking forward to this game. I just cant back the Blues for this one, they are capable of winning it but I think the Reds are a much safer bet at home.

Stay away rain - I want running Rugby!

I have dropped Tapuai from my fantasy team this week so he should score 3 tries tonight. No rain in sight on the BOM radar, should be a fantastic night. Go you REDS

 

[Tangawizi]

Just hope the Reds are up for it from the get go.

If they're going to play finals football this year, the next 3 matches are must wins.

Hoping tonight is the night for the Genia/Cooper show rather than the Lone Ranger.

Fire up boys. The Jaffas are in town.

Game on.

Is the ground at Suncorp normal size? It always seems larger than most

 

[Mr Doug]

Listening on ABC Grandstand stream (with Quentin Hull...excellent game-caller), on Toshiba laptop, so any comments would be appreciated thanks team!

While Rocket Rod is fast, WTF was Fingers thinking kicking a turnover ball away for the rocket to chase.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Jaffas seem keen to hold on to the ball and play the game on their terms at thier pace.

Reds are not seeing much of Gilbert and when they do, some doofus forward kicks it away.

Interesting Reds taking the penalties this week.

 

[hawktrain]

These two don't look like they realise the game goes for 80 minutes, been a crazy pace for the first 20.

 

[Brumbieman]

Ant having a great game in defence, shut down several great raids, and the tackles are forcing errors from the Blues and creating opportunities for the Reds.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Reds finally getting their hands on Gilbert and built pressure for 12 phases before Diggers was penalised for holding on in the tackle.

Blues relieve pressure from the resulting lineout. 23 minutes gone.

 

[FrankLind]

God I hate how the Reds crowd boos every decision that doesn't go their way.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Shizzen. #11 Nikoro slots a 55 metre PK to equalise the scores. 6-6

The ball flew like a David Warner Six.
