Reds vs Blues Rd 4 2016

[Pedrolicus]

need to kick this and the reds should go to the sheds closer than they deserve to be, but it's rarely about what you deserve

 

[Ash]

Frisby's kicks on turnovers have been good. Ant Fainga'a had a huge clear out, but shame they couldn't turn the ball over.

Ready's throwing has been a bit off, and the Blues lineout has forced the Reds to lose a few.

 

[Ash]

Yeah, this scoreline is definitely flattering the Reds, which is funny as they are 15 - 13 down right now.

Warning to the Blues about lying around the back of the ruck, could be a yellow later if they don't clear it up.

 

[Pedrolicus]

Love the kicking pens for touch after the hooter rule

 

[Chunderstruck]

Holmes is a beast

 

[Pedrolicus]

Simmons must be wondering how he can make the wallabies after that lineout display.

 

[Dan54]

Not a flash game again. Good work by Reds 6 getting under the Blues prop in that last scrum, refs letting him do it so no prob.

 

[gel]

So much better now. It a totally different attitude out there.

Good to see.

Yep, now they just need to somehow or other also make it that a half can't end just 'cos the ball has been held up in-goal..............

 

[Ash]

The issue now with the Reds lineout is that Ready has overthrown a few to the middle and back, so they are forced to go to a front ball which the Blues now expect. Every throw to the front now will be a lottery for the Reds.

They need to sort it out to keep close to the Blues, because the Blues will rip them up in open play.

 

[Mr Doug]

C'mon Reds, ........ "We can do it"!!

He's only able to do it because the Blues TH is being turned in chasing his Hooker as Faagase dicks the Blues LH.

 

[Dismal Pillock]

oh FFS, Charlie F getting done at scrums by a fuckin reserve halfback sized fluffybunny having a burl at prop, Ofa dealt to too, Alan Parsons Project at hooker, wft.

The Blues hefty D their only saving grace. it better be hefty too cos theres some unfit pricks out there who'll run out of puff, fuck me the size of the Blues backs, half of them could play in the Sunwolves pack

 

[brokendown]

charger, in the bad old days a left hook fixed that problem!

 

[Strewthcobber]

Got to love Ready giving his opposite number heaps after a good scrum win only then to immediately lose the lineout.....

 

[Roundawhile]

WTF! ABC grandstand now broadcasting the loig
More commentary PLEASE.

 

[ChargerWA]

Handy looking waterboy.

 

[ChargerWA]

Has Tui done anything good yet this year?

 

[swingpass]

score please

 

[Ash]

Tui had a big game last game. Big midfield break and clever linking to set up Frisby's try, lots of carries in the first few games.

This game he's been very quiet, adnd just knocked on again.

Reds doing well to hold out the the Blues so far this half, you get the feeling if the Blues get some wind in their sails then it could get unpleasant.

Reds giving up so much possession in lost ball and shocking ruck protection.
