No more Reds please

They had the best record against kiwi opposition out of all Australian teams this year (1 win and a draw vs 1 win for the tahs & brumbies and 0 wins for the rebels & force)

 

[Lorenzo]

Foley's kick touched again.

Neither are the rest of the Reds in the team

hasn't stopped a dozen or so of them tonight

 

[Shiggins]

These scrubs are a joke. All blacks boring Strait in. Miles offside in that turnover as well. The wallabies need to start bending the rules to compete

Worth a shot I guess- can't be any worse than this mob

 

[ACR]

nz might be average, but Australia is awful by comparison.

Er, wake up call. This AB team is not average.

 

[The torpedo]

We've reached peak insanity.....

I would say more peak "fuck it let's do something completely different" but anyway.............

 

[gel]

I disagree. For example, Foley was never the man to implement a tactical kicking game because his kicking is awful in every respect, which has been centre-stage tonight. Sorry, but that is on the coach.

Foley is a flyhalf - why can't he play a territory game. It's entirely on him to have the skill set for his position.

Has he never contemplated hiring a kicking coach himself in order to improve that part of his game?

Its entirely in Foley - he's the guy on the field.

Looked as though that was a knock-on by Read. Regardless, they're pushing too hard too often for the magic offloads and it's becoming a bit scrappy.

 

[Shiggins]

Er, wake up call. This AB team is not average.

Compared to last year's squad it's average. Crotty isn't a international center. Well at least not all black quality

Glad Read was selfish twice.

And yet, there he is............

Fending off one of our wingers to score the first try.

The game looks like this:

 

[Simon.]

It's okay, Mumm's on now. Everything is saved!

Tell me about it. Its unbelievable

If the wallabies get booed off (and they damn well deserve to), expect Matt Burke to write another version of this article: http://www.smh.com.au/rugby-union/u...ayed-at-super-rugby-level-20110324-1c8k2.html
