I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the performance wasn't that bad. With 25mins to go they were leading by 11 points, had scored 3 tries and should have been able to kick on and score another one or two and we would have won by 20 with a bonus point and be alot happier with ourselves...

Sounds like Im not missing much by being at work.

thanks to the person who pointed out the reds were at $7. They were even higher on betfair and the 1-12 sets me up for tomorrows races. :thumb

Did the Reds not do the same against the crusaders?? The first time the Crusaders got away with it because the Reds kept on holding back so there was in fact no obstruction. The second time someone bothered to touch the front of the maul and a penalty was given.

From that other sh1t rugby site... How can they let these people get paid for commentary. I'm assuming it was from Cooper, not Barnes??

Re: BumBoys vs Welpies 5. Score more points than the Brumbies.

Disagree Scotty, as long as it is done immediately. Lee - you said you don't like refs guessing and calling unplayable. Personally if he was guessig I would rather he called unplayable than give a penalty and 3 points to a side on a hunch. Which brings us back to the free kick sanction but I...

I would normally agree but I dont know if Caldwell has returned to full fitness. He was blowing hard in the Reds game despite spending a lot of time in the blood bin and didnt have his usual impact against the Stormers.

I quite liked point g in the tackle. About it being ok to call an unplayable ball. Lee referred to how sometimes players pretend to be trapped, but often they generally are (mainly because attacking players have gone off their feet) and shouldn't be penalised. However because the Ref sees them...

I hope it is a late dinner Thomo. As the game would be a 7.30pm kick off you wont be out of there till after 9.30. On the bright side you can be in a restaurant/pub within 10mins and not be sitting on a train stuck somewhere west of the ANZAC bridge. I would love to have a beer to debate the...

Really have to disagree with all of this Mowen love. Yes he has played fairly well but I dont think he has been exceptional. His jumping at 2 is very handy but Dennis should be able to offer something similar, and I believe Dennis will provide more around the field. He was heavily involved in a...

Re: Waratahs vs Fush 'n Chups Do we not remember how many tries Mowen bombed last year? Dennis and Mumm are both capable of roaming wide when required but Id rather see them square up first and let the backs do the stuff out wide.

Well despite the press thinking Mowen would hang onto the 6 Jersey they have pushed Dennis back here and dropped Mowen to the bench to allow Mumm back into the team. I like that selection. Pity about the backs.

TPN has been selected for Saturday. Lets hope he passes fitness tests later in the week.

A lot of Barnes' passes have been going slightly behind the man this year. Hopefully he will improve in the coming weeks. There was one passage of play against the bulls where the Tahs were running around the half way line like chooks with their heads cut off. One of Barnes or Hangers needed...

I thought he was inconsistent. Allowed some blatant slowing down of the ball, but penalised others when they were trapped and had nowhere to go. Pinged players who were counter rucking for not going through the gate when I thought they had but allowed supporting players to come from the side...

I watched the game on IQ with liberal use of the fast forward button so cant do a 3,2,1 but from what I saw McCalman was giving it a red hot go.

For me Higgenbotham has been a huge disappointment. When I saw him in the Crusaders game last year I thought Australia had found a new Elsom. What do others think of him?
