Thought he was good last week but was at the ground so might’ve missed it

Yeah. Think he’s built for finals footy. Strong defender. Big so can take it to the line. Has a giant boot. For the brumbies to win this they need to have learnt from when they played the chiefs a few weeks ago. Be better at exiting your own half. Win the collision. Reduce your numbers in the...

Is he the best 10 though?

Sooks the lot of them

I think there was some element of the 6 day turn around and travel from Perth that probably added to the level of changes ahead of a critical Chiefs match. That being said previously in the thread there were other opportunities for rotation (Drua, Moana @ Home) that would’ve reduced the amount...

Not sure if a single force through has been straight all night? Do refs just not rule that anymore?

Was a pretty appalling referee performance. Reds line speed was questionable, ruck was a mess and the JOC (James O'Connor) pass for Petaia’s try was a mile forward. Hoping the reds can get their forward pack up to scratch because their backline is pretty strong. Brums we’re strong in the forwards but lacked...

Brumbies put up a post about Tom Hooper being out long-term. Any idea how long that's for?

Fuck Murphy. Such poor refereeing. Just utter rubbish.

Some out of character scrum and maul performances from the Brums especially in the first half. I thought Hooper did an alright job as fill in for Bobby V and Reimer made a massive impact when he came on. Thought they were a little hard done by at the end from Angus but 60 minutes of poor rugby...

Jake Gordon take a hint.

Didn’t think Valetini was as bad as people were calling out. He’ll be better for the run and I’m sure he’ll build on it. Swinton definitely isn’t the answer unless we just want a few extra stupid penalties and cards to go with them. Think Gordon had a shocker. Lots of chat of Tate not getting...

Jack Maddocks signed for section in France? On their instagram they've got a reference of him and 2023? https://www.instagram.com/sectionpaloisebearnpyrenees/ They've also said goodbye to Jesse Mogg (not sure where he's off to)

This should never be confused for being "not woke". It was appalling racism and something that has no place in society, this game or the tahs.

Agree - Valetini has a bit of Ardie Savea about him. Dynamic runner, huge in defence and pretty good over the ball. Consistently wins his collisions. Pretty excited to see him in gold.

Oh and while I'm here..what happened to Kata? Huge promise before the break? Is he injured?

So like...the fuck we gonna do about this scrum and lineout then? Not sure what happened while the brums were on COVID break but something's seriously broken based on the last couple of games. Did Dan Palmer stay on as scrum coach with all of the pay reductions?

I saw the Lord liked one of Reg's twitter posts about the coaching appointments :)

1. To'omua had a shocker. Huge step down once Lilo was off. A lot of it seemed to be communication issues. Makes me wonder how much bench variation gets a run at training because it looked like they’d never played together. 2. Defense was better but geez dunno how that’ll fare against other top...

I think it's called 'Kick Off' and 'Kick On' and is before (5pm) and after (9.30pm) games on Friday. There's also a super rugby roundup show but it's not the format of previous rugby shows, just reviews the specific games with a bit of commentary after and then discusses next week's fixtures.
