Rebels vs Kings Super Rugby R9 - Saturday April 13

[Dark Shark]

Someone will have to give O'Connor lessons on playing flyhalf. Just seems very lost and not giving backline any direction. His left to right pass is also very weak.

 

[RoffsChoice]

I feel his role is at 12 or on the wing, where his running game really comes to the fore. A 10 who runs too much is a bad thing.

JOC (James O'Connor) looking weak at no10. Way too many no look/late passes. No backline moves either.

Still think the Rebels can take this.

 

[Rassie]

If I didn’t know better I would have put a bet on this refs is an Aussie

JOC (James O'Connor) looks tome as though he needs to play a lot more at 10. Hope they leave him there now.

 

[Rassie]

A fly half is only as good as his pack allow him to be.

I don't think he plays his best rugby there. He should be at 15 imo.

 

[hazzaj]

Try time, lets go Rebels!

 

[ChargerWA]

Rebels are playing with some conviction. Enjoying this game. If only their ball in hand skills were a bit sharper.

 

[RoffsChoice]

Still half an hour to go, but the Rebels sure are improved this half.

10 phases and phipps kicks it away! jesus son

Only slightly worse than his rusty gate double pump pass.

 

[hazzaj]

smells like the brumbies game again.

 

[Bairdy]

75 minutes gone, Kings camped in Rebels 22. Reid given a yellow card

 

[Bairdy]

Try to the Kings! 76 minutes gone

 

[hazzaj]

nail biting stuff after the 80 with a scrum put in to the kings 27-27

 

[RoffsChoice]

How do the Kings do it? The Lions were never this strong for 80 minutes.

 

[gel]

Tense finish.

I have to admit, I like watching Kings games. Some of their tries are fantastic.

Well played.

 

[hazzaj]

drop goal catrakilis ! 30-27 to the Kings.

 

[Bairdy]

Demetri Catrakilis with the successful drop goal to win it! 30-27
