Round 14: Brumbies v Rebels Fri 24th 7.35PM @ GIO STADIUM

[Adam84]

Horan seriously just suggested the answer for the Rebels was “Daugunu putting a few grubbers behind the Brumbies defenders”

Brumbies defenders are rushing up out wide, kicking behind is a pretty common tactic against rushing defence to keep the defenders honest….

 

[Tomikin]

Not a bad half of footy.. Brumbies forwards too good, straight through the middle. Was Slippery injured?

 

[Strewthcobber]

Brumbies showing their class over the last 10 in that half. They are a good team. Forwards a step above what the Rebels can deal with

 

[Rudderless]

Halftime
Brumbies 34 Rebels 3

 

[Scooter]

Can't afford to go a player down against a clinical team like the Brumbies.

 

[Yoda]

Throws the ball at the face of Kailea to celebrate

He’s still got that bit of moron in him unfortunately.

 

[The Chairman]

Halftime
Brumbies 34 Rebels 3

Goodness.

 

[Tomikin]

He just makes it so hard to like him

Don't think he cares if you like him.. There was a bit of a late challenge (totally fine) and he rolled the ball at him giving a bit of niggle back..nothing in it

When they hold on to the ball the Brumbies can put some points on

Phil… anything Horan says disregard. Great player sh.t commentator.

 

[Yoda]

34-3. Rebels looking very average.

Of course he doesn't care what some bloke with feet for hands says in an obscure corner of the internet - I just don't like it when players act like arrogant clowns, particularly when they're up / after they've scored. Doesn't do much to quell his reputation of being prone to an occasional brain snap either

 

[Brumby Runner]

Anyone interested in playing skills rather than brain snaps will acknowledge the wide gap between Tom Wright and Andrew Kellaway at fullback so far this game.

I tend to agree, but the Brumbies forwards have man handled the Rebels so the platforms much better

NSW certainly produces good players. Keeping them is our problem. Wright certainly having the better night out but as Tom says he has a much better platform to work from. I’d have them both in the team at 14 & 15.

 

[LeCheese]

Wright's playing very well, and has done all season - hence my comment about him making himself hard to like, because I do want to.

 

[Scooter]

How do you have such a big gap in the middle of your defence?

 

[Yoda]

Wright is Wallaby 15 all day… even including his occasional brain snap.

 

[Strewthcobber]

What a tackle by Wright on Lancaster. Lucky he wasn't yellowed for not releasing the tackled player though. Thought that was the first offense

 

[Happy]

TMO for Tupou I reckon

 

[Happy]

No it is Tua
