Great read Reg! Thanks! I reckon we will get a reasonable crowd to the game. Quade always pulls more people through the gates and the farewell game for Kev, Will and possibly Quade should be worth a few more as well.
I think that Reds fans have been just waiting for something to kick them in the bum and get to the game. Last week's performance could've been enough to re-light the fire, if only for a week.
If anyone else needs any hope for this week then consider this. The Reds have never lost a game in their Indigenous round.
In a fairly dismal season last year, possibly the best game of the for us was when we (12th same as this year) ran riot over the Highlanders (5th same as the Chiefs this year) at Suncorp to the tune of 38-31 for, you guessed it, Indigenous Round.
The stars, the sun and the moon are aligned. The boys will be breathing fire Saturday night. I'd be fucking worried if I was the Chiefs.

Messam and Brodie are huge ins. They bring great physicality. Add to that an in form Cane.
But the Chiefs have big issues at 9 and 10. Their back 3 has been a little scratchy of late also.
LETS GO REDS

I I heard an ad for the match on the radio and they mentioned saying goodbye to Horwill and Genia.
Are reds fans meant to forget that others are leaving? Do the Reds not want to admit others are leaving next year?
I realise that Horwill and Genia have given a lot of service to the Reds but guys like Hanson also helped win the trophy a few years ago.
I hope everyone leaving gets a good send off

Good point Jets, but I think the difference is that Kev and Will are leaving Australian Rugby. We'll likely still see guys like Chibba playing at Suncorp next year etc. They'll get a send off, but Kev and Will are deservedly sharing the limelight on this one.
nup. Kev and Genia are in a class of their own. Wallaby and Reds captains. 100 cappers. Off to another country, as good as retired.
Hanson, good for him, is off to a competitor. Who else is confirmed leaving at the moment? They will get a send of (likely) at the Gala ball at which departing players are recognised. But no one deserves the level that these 2 are getting.

On MMM this morning they had Horwill trying to guess "who wrote this [obviously fake] farewell?" Best by far was:
Roses are Red
Violets are blue
I hear you're leaving
Please take Adam Thomson too.
Answer being of course James O'Conner & of the ones I heard it was the only one he "guessed".

So there's been a fair bit of negativity for Genia and Horwill over the last few seasons, what with the teams poor performance and their indifferent form. But I'd like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to both players for everything they've done for our team. Seeing them take us from the bottom of the ladder to Super rugby Champs was a memory i'll cherish forever.
Thanks for everything boys! WE R RED!
p.s. Quade if this is your last home game too, then same goes for you.

Cant tell if you're trolling or just worried about the tahs missing the finals...a bit of both?

Next week too?
Worried about the state of Australian Rugby.
No trolling. Chiefs are vulnerable. Reds are close to full strength.
Sick of spin doctors blowing smoke up our collective backsides to make up for inept performances, often with the root cause directly related to poor preparation from the Coaching and Management team.
We are Red.
This is for Australian Rugby.

Chiefs lucky not to be looking at a YC against Cane or even a PT. Quade will make this 3-0, shit I'd make this 3-0.
