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

[griffins]

Can we have anymore scrums and time wasting? Brumbies should have 5 in the bin for being offside all day…

Brumbies crowd at the ground think the dead opposite

 

[Happy]

Rebels forwards have been dominated.

 

[Happy]

And again. 8 tries to 2.

 

[Scooter]

Pretty horrible effort by the Rebels.

 

[Tomikin]

Better suited to 14 I think at test level. They’ll put bombs at him if he’s fullback to put him under pressure and make him vulnerable to the brain snaps. Kellaway is safer and more cool headed up the back. The attack roles are so similar these days, can easily create a 2nd play off the open side winger, doesn’t have to be the fullback

Tonight hasn't shown that just that when a teams under pressure players crack, Kellaway has felt it tonight. I don't think his been terrible but mistakes because of pressure.

Well done boys

He was fairly poor. He made multiple errors.

Long weekend and 2 degrees doesn’t lend itself to big crowds.

 

[PhilClinton]

Taniela hands on hips for much of his time on the field.

Money well spent.

Rebels fans gave me lashings in the off-season when I said he wouldn’t be worth the coin. I wonder if anyone changed their tune.

 

[Tomikin]

Winner Winner chicken dinner, the Brumbies through the guts, forwards aimed up. Really hung tough while down players.

Big response from the pack after really struggling against the crusaders.

Long weekend? Is Monday a RDO in Canberra?

Some of his clean up in the first half caused the pressure. He’s not the fullback messiah like many have said.

Yeah reconciliation day

 

[PhilClinton]

Long weekend? Is Monday a RDO in Canberra?

The crowd is mostly politicians, 3 day work week

 

[Tomikin]

Australian Reconciliation Day

 

[KOB1987]

Ok well lucky canberrans. I’ll be at work, which is ironic considering it’s apparently national reconciliation day.

Discipline is a little concerning.

I thought Frost was excellent tonight. He's continuing to live up to his potential.

 

[Tomikin]

Lolesio, Wright good pick of the backs. All the pack great probably go Frost or Valetini for MOM

 

[whitefalcon]

No crowd announcement at the game but I reckon about 5-6000

 

[griffins]

Frost missed/fell off a few tackles I thought. Jahrome Brown was excellent and Swain was good again I thought (Valetini is just a given at this point)
