    Round 5 : Force v Reds - Perth

    If I was coaching against the Reds I would get my team to attack down Vunivalu's wing constantly, his defensive alignment is poor, he comes off his wing too much and joins rucks that don't need him. His tackling is not very effective either.

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

    Was watching Tupou in defence and he was just watching and moving sideways, only joined a ruck when it was pointless and no impact. If he goes to the NH he will get a rude awakening with what is expected of front rowers in work.

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

    Tupou leaving the Reds has worked out well for Qld, not Melbourne. Fairly anonymous this game, now replaced in 1st half. ROI not looking good

    Liam Wright looking sharp.

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

    Agreed, was just thinking Henry is looking so powerful.

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

    Feel that Reds are just going to open them up, making a lot of metres.

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

    I think LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) is the ex Red to watch, seems very active and strong.

    Queensland Reds 2024

    Agree Reg, however I have noticed that he seems surprisingly easy to bring to ground for such a big man. Also his off the ball work seems to be being on the back of rucks where he isn't much value, I would prefer he was ranging off the ruck to take a pass and use his power to get over the gain line.

    Round 3: Reds vs Chiefs, 6:45pm AEST - Saturday 9th of March @ Suncorp

    Great effort by both teams. Reds did well to hold on at the end, very good defence. Surprised that Faagase didn't get carded for that head clash.

    Super Rugby: Rd 2. NSW Waratahs v Crusaders, Sat Mar 2

    Well done Tahs. Gee Jake Gordon has some speed. I hope that this win gives them some confidence and takes some pressure off the coach. Surprised Hanigan wasn't starting, he was good when he came on.

    Queensland Reds 2024

    Vunivalu likes piling into rucks, and yes he is a big body, but sometimes it would be better to have your powerful winger out on the wing to take a pass from the ruck rather than being stuck in there. Much rather see Jock out there, just seems a smart footballer. Agree with comments on Flook...

    Angus Bell does not look like a prop.

    Great result and got to be a confidence boost for the team who have struggled against the Ferns but have probably benefited a lot from having that level of competition.

    That Portuguese 10 was pretty handy as well.

    Wallabies 2024

    Don't think Eddie does humble. Remember when he got the boot from Wallabies last time he went to the Reds and certainly didn't show a change of approach there.

    Wallabies v Portugal, RWC Pool C, Mon 2 Oct 2.45AM

    Portugal were impressive, quite a surprise and positive for their future if they can continue to grow and get some regular high level competition. I thought the Wallabies were going to pile it on early but the Portuguese came back. Two disallowed tries as well. Their passing looked good. Fiji...

    How much of that RA money being thrown at NRL players could have been beneficial in keeping the Wallaroos players in rugby vs NRLW?

    Didn't Hamish go there because he wanted to play 10?

    Wallabies 2024

    Wales were well organised and all seemed to know their role. They lost their playmaker after 10 minutes, which I thought would disrupt them and Anscombe comes off the bench and looked like he had been in the role all along.
