^ scrum, lineout & maul aren't too flash but they're exceptional at setting up & winning midfield rucks. So if I'm Brad Thorn I'm saying kick long & put it out; don't get isolated & turned over or pinged; and ffs don't give DMac any space & time. Easier said than done but IF Reds can play a territory game & put them under scoreboard pressure there's no reason they can't get a W. Gotta say, though, that based on their last two performances I'm not sure Reds are capable of doing that.
Really looking forward to the 6-7-8 battle, it's gonna be a beauty!
