Round 4 : Rebels v Reds. Friday Night (Melbourne)

[Wilson]

Was that LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) again?
He dropped the ball near the line only 10min earlier also, although this one was a fairly poor pass

Yeah, he has been off the pace in defence tonight as well. Maybe a bit worn out after heavy load the last few weeks

 

[dusk]

McReight has all the potenial to be a world-class 7. He just makes it look so easy.

 

[Adam84]

That was a pretty aggressive set-move

 

[Wilson]

McReight a hattrick of assists?

 

[dillyboy]

We escaped the forward pass on there - can we get 60....

 

[rugbyAU]

McReight has all the potenial to be a world-class 7. He just makes it look so easy.

Still would like him to have a bit more size for the test arena

 

[Wilson]

Rebels fought back well to start the half, but this is looking like it might end about the same as the Force game here last year

 

[Wilson]

Still would like him to have a bit more size for the test arena

Look again, he has beefed up plenty this year.

 

[Oracle83]

Same happened in round one with Wilson laying into McReight. Good to see they're aiming high and pushing for it

Still would like him to have a bit more size for the test arena

Size of the fight in McReight is next level

 

[LeCheese]

lol Petaia just popped his shoulder back in

 

[Wilson]

Elite maul defence

 

[Aussie D]

why are the commentators talking about league? it is a great game of rugby happening in front of them. talk about that

 

[Wilson]

They're not? they're talking about club rugby

 

[Aussie D]

They're not? they're talking about club rugby

before they started chatting about the National Club championship they were talking about league

 

[Adam84]

Rebels way of slowing lineouts is painful for the speed of the game

 

[Wilson]

Good to get the BP win. Can't ask for much more but it looks like Les Kiss is, which is also fantastic to see.

 

[Wilson]

The signature Les Kiss choke tackle has added a lot to the Reds defence this year. Has been key to slowing the opposition ball down.

 

[rugbyAU]

Size of the fight in McReight is next level

I agree, just would like him to be at bit heavier come the internationals

 

[RugbyReg]

Talking of getting bigger - Ethan Dobbins has got huge.

 

[cyclopath]

I agree, just would like him to be at bit heavier come the internationals

Why? He's fast, he's strong, he's skilful and he executes his core roles extremely well. Not sure he'd be more effective with an extra 5-10kg.
