Re: Brumbies Vs Crusaders

Yes T Smith has had a couple of very strong games. He was abysmal against the Tahs. He should never kick.

advice for the whole family I think

Re: Brumbies Vs Crusaders

I was still hoping George Smith was going to kick that drop goal for the Brumbies. A bit disappointed to be honest.

I would love to be at this game with a big sign that says, "Go get a job Sader Supporters!"

Or, "Will suck dick for a ticket to the Sader vs Brumbies game" :lmao:

I give the best $5 dollar blow-jobs :binkybaby

I could go on and on!

But I am being watched! :angryfire:

Anyone else sick of the Brumbies dicking around AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) by putting him in a different position almost every 2nd week?

It must be limiting his development.

 

[Pfitzy]

My apologies, that's corrent.. and why I couldn't find the link!

Its that like a torrent?

Nazimba - Love your style.

Was just alerted that Bryce Lawrence will referee this game. This year when reffing, the home team has always won. Saders by 10, but I hope the Brumbies clean up the park.

Fark he looks to be developing just fine to me. The dicking around will affect some players but he seems to keep going.

What's with all the penis references in this thread? It's disturbing.

NO! Just you! Mind your own God damn business as we chase a semi's place!

Better yet, get drunk and cheer for the Brumbies like the rest of the Force and Reds fans!

 

[Scotty]

So you are happy that you have your most penetrating runner of the ball out on the wing, particularly when you consider Giteau's habit of running sideways and crowding his outside men?

Surely he is a better fullback than Huxley. Why not keep him there and put Huxley on the bench.

Just because he can play a number of positions, doesn't mean he has to be put in all them over a season.

 

[RugbyReg]

I think he's better than Huxley and I agree with you Scotty. Whilst I don't think it is impacting his form, I think even he'd prefer to have the one spot and just stick to it. His form at fullback as been brilliant of late. Shunting him to the wing doesn't seem like the best move.

Thank you Noddy. Although I'm not sure that having another Qlder agree with me is going to help, judging by Wazza's post.

And to you Wazza - I will be cheering for both the Brumbies and Tahs this friday.

 

[Spook]

The Brumbies are just trying to get the best balanced side on the pitch. A Smith on the wing and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) at 15 or Hux at 15 and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) on the wing. The latter choice is better.

Fanifo and Mafi are both crocked.

 

[Scotty]

Put Huxley on the wing if you don't like A Smith.

Why risk moving your only (arguably) game winning back out of his best position?

 

[Spook]

I think A Smith is good but he's a centre and lacks pace. Also had little experience on the wing at this level. AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) has played test rugby on the wing. Hux has played test rugby at 15 and I can't recall seeing him on the wing. Heavy rain is forecast for this match. Huxley's kicking game could be very handy in those conditions.

I don't see why this is such an issue?

Crusaders team to play brumbies

CRUSADERS: 15 Colin Slade, 14 Sean Maitland, 13 Robbie Fruean, 12 Daniel Bowden, 11 Zac Guildford, 10 Dan Carter, 9 Andy Ellis, 8 Kieran Read, 7 Richie McCaw (captain), 6 George Whitelock, 5 Sam Whitelock, 4 Brad Thorn, 3 Ben Franks, 2 Ti'i Paulo, 1 Owen Franks.

Chris Jack is benched for Sam Whitelock and owen franks comes in for wyatt crockett in only changes from last weeks side.

 

[Scotty]

Just trying to draw a line in the sand regarding the Brumbies best back, and one of Australia's most damaging ball runners. He is the only guy that is an automatic wallaby selection that gets stuffed around this much (by the Brumbies and Wallabies).

We will only see his best when we see him stay in the same position for a season.

 

[fatprop]

The Tahs kicked to Huxley all day as they knew he would generally just kick it out and not try to counter. He did, and they went to the lineout on the half way line.

With the Brumbies scoring the majority of their tries from 3m it makes sense to require them to try to score from their own half wherever possible.

 

[mudskipper]

Christchurch weather Friday outlook is likely wet, wild and windy... If it was on the Gold Coast it would be an opened as a water theme park during the day...

Huxley will cover the Crusaders strong kicking game, of Slade and Carter. The Crusaders will be too dog-tired to run and will kick for field position and play for penalties hoping Carter can put a few sweet ones between the posts... But it a worry for coach Blackadder as he’s kicking has been only fair this season. Furthermore the new huge grandstand for the RWC has created unfamiliar wind patterns for Carter to kick in. The Saders are so concerned about a poor crowd turn out that they have offered $5 cheap tickets to the unemployed to fill the grandstands.

Friend Playing AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) on the wing brings him to the front line and will challenge the younger outside backs of the Crusaders...

Furthermore the brumbies have the Crusaders up front. The Saders ran 2 old locks last weekend Thorne and Jack, with the short week turn around and the long flight home. After 3 straight loses the men from the south Isle will be weary... this time the heavy weather will affect them more than the fresher combatants. They will cramp, slow down and kick away possession. Effectively they will give up the advantage and defend their line for the season.

On the other hand the Brumbies have landed today fresh after two 5 point wins and are winning in form
. They'll will be settled and ready for a firer fight… and George Smith will lead the way... Brumbies +10
