You know the 'tah's are playing well when the NZ commentators start leaning towards them from quite early on. They were very impressed with the overall physicality and pace. It also sounded like they wanted to father AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)'s children!

Captain is announced tomorrow, team on Tuesday.

30 minutes in to the first half. Barker 7 - Trinity 13. Barker No.6 just sin binned. Leaving now so can't update any more

Rumours are that if you double that figure you are far closer to the mark. Although I must say there are arguments for and against only having teachers coach, the issue is some of the lower grades tend to have some fairly ordinary coaches who lack the skill to teach the boys.

How about 10/11 year olds who happen to do school, club and reps games/training i.e. 6 days a week including certain days with multiple sessions.... There are some tired boys out there who will look forward to the holidays and the NSW State Championships to be over. I know some of you argue...

Yep, I think "The Hoff" had some difficulties with seeing straight. The overthrown lineout that Phipps almost scored off looked like it was heading to Hegarty first!

Everything he did was straight including his running..... Perhaps he should have kicked.

Where do I start. Firstly, a lovely bottle of St Hallets is sitting empty beside the couch, so please forgive me.... Tah's monstered the Rebs tonight in all facets of the game. I actually thought the Rebs were lucky with only one sin bin. They were slowing down the ball at rucks constantly...

No AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)? Should be one of the first picked, if not should def. be on the bench. You have picked a bunch of players who's form is not 100% at the moment (Kurindrani, Genia, Cooper) plus Pocock who could be anything when he gets back from injury, but not included one of the most consistent players...

Don't think it was as clear cut as that mate.

My opinion is that squeaky won't be captain as was mentioned on Rugby HQ that the person picked needs to have the respect of the team. Not wishing to delve into the Dublin issue again too much but I think he did not come across well to a number of players that night. And most of those who faced...

Um, the Lions lost too FF (Folau Fainga'a). Reckon they will be pretty disappointed with their efforts too. Mind you they were "tenderised" to quote Hawko on Sunday and I think you guys can win. Forwards battle will be tough but I can see Badge doing a Horne and running through them a couple of times.

Time for the tahs to roll on for 3 wins in a row and put their southern bretheren to the sword. I don't think it will be close but it won't be a blow out. By 12 or 15 perhaps? will be interesting to see how the Rebs handle our forward pack at the breakdown and in general play. I am looking...

Let's wait until after this weekend and after the Rebels play a forward pack with a bit more mongrel than the Reds before names like Fainnga and McMahon get mentioned. Dennis might not have the impact of Jackpot/Skelton/Palu/Douglas but he does the simple things right. I think the Rebels backs...

James Horwill quote "stupid referring decision". What is that going to cost.....

Thanks for that :) I do like having a different perspective than the usual Kearns/Kafer/Horan show. I think Nick McArdle and Georgina add plenty and is a big difference between the two Gregs that used to rule the roost.

I am seriously considering a Georgina Robinson appreciation thread actually....

Unfortunate for the Reds, but I think the score line flatters the Crusaders somewhat. Not sure Brum's, Sharks, Chiefs, Tah's etc would give up like that. The Reds were to blame almost as much as the Crusaders were good.

Foxtel you $#%€. Just sitting down to watch it and missed the whole first half thanks to their stupid programming. It still isn't fixed, still showing the match is on fox 1.

How about giving Placid some more game time? He was a standout in the Aussie Schoolboys in 2012, had a shocker of a debut this year for the Reds, but I still think he has the goods. Edit to say the shocker including the injury, not that he played shockingly bad..
