Early predictions: gen blue by 10

Rebels by 15

That's fair. The Force have a lot of fight but TBH, their athletes look way smaller than the rest of the teams.

Could be the cut of the jerseys, but I doubt it.

The Rebels have some good players and they're bound to beat the Force. I think with Sham Vui going off early they fell apart.

Gen Blue vs Brumbies is another matter, to give them credit I think the Brumbies played worse than their line up sheet suggests and will come out firing this week. Gen Blue haven't really impressed so far, it was a high scoring game against the force which suggests lacking a bit in defense so it could go either way.
Here's hoping they pick the right team
Brumbies by 5.

^^^^^^^

Pretty much the same team as played the force 2 weeks ago. Had a few showers down at the gong; hopefully they will stay away. Also hope there is more structure than the last game: was a lill bit "fiddly" last game mainly due to the weather.

That's a big hope ;) I think with the amount of ball they had and the refs calls I don't think they will be that lucky again and I think that won't happen again. Gen blue will hopefully (that word again) be more disciplined than the rebels were.

In the end they were just not good enough to score. I think line outs and breakdown wins will be more critical this week; I expect the scrum will be fairly equal.

Perhaps but 39-0 to gen-blu first half against central west(corrected thank you) who as you said "hadn't trained" then fresh legs to gen blu in second shelf against depleted central west yet the second half central west won 19-16? I would suggest all trails should be considered??
OK point taken.

But what they are playing now will be a big step up from that game.

It's a very good team, with some big forwards with high level experience and serious talent in the backs.

If they gel, can't see anyone beating them.

Big call. Good team yes, unbeatable no.

Twin brothers as the lock pairing? That's an interesting combo

Yeah I saw him go down and grab his thigh in the tackle just before he went off but it did not look that serious. That said it gives us a good look at what Moseley has to offer?? Looking forward to the game. Go the Brumbies (only because Qld is not playing this w/e).
