Rd 8: Rebels v Highlanders - Sat 13th

[drewprint]

This Maunder guy sucks...

Stinking it up.

 

[Dctarget]

Is that the bonus point? I’m not sure

 

[Jimmy_Crouch]

I would.

If I’m Schmidt I want this guy wanting to come back. Id be pushing every side in Aus to sign him.

And who knows people wiggle out of deals all the time.

Okay, an intercept try is exciting and all but HE LITERALLY KNOCKS THE FUCKING BALL ON. If I can freezeframe the end of the ball touching the ground, can they not??

Gives me anxiety thinking about old Scrot Eyes Gould offering Darby 600k

Pretty good performance from the Rebels. Some real class tries in that win.

Tupou stumps me. I'd suggest based on where he is at now you just can't pick him for the Wallabies.

Poor Carter was told 20 seconds to on the shot clock at 79:48, then gets told to hurry the fuck up 3 seconds later

 

[Derpus]

Fuck Fakatava has no idea what to say jesus.

 

[Strewthcobber]

Try scored at 78:15, and Gordon took the kick at 79:55.

Doesn't matter tonight, but Super Rugby needs to get these shot clocks started earlier and with more accuracy

Makes up for De Groot being a prat in general and knocking on that ‘try’ he scored when he played at the ball when he was lying on the ground

They definitely wanted the kick taken before time was up.

The shot clocks are getting started way too late. Same as last night. The kickers are getting and taking two minutes instead of 90 seconds

 

[Derpus]

Rebels are in the top 4? we've entered fucken bizarro world

Is that after he's already grabbed at it? Probably gunna need a few shots there mate.

Well done Rebels. That was a good win. That was a decent gash on Kemeny's cheek. Kellaway continues to look really sharp and is my pick for Wallabies fullback. LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) had a really good game and must be pushing for Wallabies consideration. Agree with @Dctarget, Louwrens had a great game. Tupou his pop for the try aside was really disappointing.

Highlanders looking rather lacklustre. Fakatava was good and de Groot had some moments, but they really struggled to contain the Rebels.

Trying not to be biased, it looked like a great bootlaces regather to me.
