Rd 8: Rebels v Highlanders - Sat 13th

[Derpus]

Fuck me I wish Carter could kick the ball reliably. To use the children's parlance that pass was fire.

 

[Derpus]

The refs clearly trying to avoid giving yellows for knock downs I reckon. Personally happy with that.

Should be a PT here.

 

[Dctarget]

Fuck the ref is reluctant to card him, giving him every benefit of the doubt

Think it should be red card and bin the 13 too for good measure

It is kind of a shit rule.

 

[Dctarget]

This is gonna be high scoring, both teams are making easy inroads every phase

 

[Dctarget]

Another ref could’ve been tougher on the Rebels scrum

 

[Dctarget]

Bin ‘im too, dirty dogs

 

[Dctarget]

Fuck me this kid is good, well done Darby

 

[Pokinacha]

Lancaster could be a wallabies flyer

 

[Dctarget]

The Carter/Kellaway/Lancaster combination is working well.

Salakai-Loto has also been great.

really hoping Rebels continue their 2nd half surges too.

Agree. And also, how good has the seven's program been in developing talent. Toole, Lancaster etc.

That was elite from Kellaway and Lancaster on half time. Superb hands and running lines.

Yep, that and the u20's has produced some excellent talent in recent times.

What's the difference between "releasing the ball" and just knocking the ball on there? Dude wasn't tackled and in reality, he's just rolled the ball along the ground before scoring.

Don't disagree, but the seven's players often just seem to be able to do the basics consistently at pace (passing, catching, footwork into contact etc), coupled with good awareness of what's around them. I feel like the burst nature of sevens coupled with the impact of errors in that game just hone skills executed under pace and pressure so well.

Mate it "was intentional, malicious and cynical". We should be throwing the book at this sort of criminal malfeasance.

We all know AAMI park slopes downhill at that part of the field (was surprised not called a knock on)

LOL Turinui and the other bloke just chat to each other right over the head of the poor woman in the middle. They dont even look at her unless she decides fuck this shit I'm just going to start talking anyway
