Magnay caught out there. Brumbies just dominating the breakdown both on defence and attack.

Pfucking oath.

Reds forwards last week dominated the Crusaders (who have since been proven shite), but they didn't even try to compete up front this week.

And against a backline with some of the hardest hitters with or without the ball, they should have been aiming to smash it up the middle all night to get close.

The Reds' jockey defence and their breakdown work is making it easy for the Brumbies. Certainly didn't expect the Reds to be carved up.

Wonder how the Brumbies go against a team that employs a rush defence.

To go back to your earlier point about Hunt: the Brumbies are standing quite deep on attack too. The difference is the halfback is giving them something to run onto.

Brumbies have really hit the ground running, and look the shit. But are they good, very good, or exceptional and are the Reds mediocre, poor or very poor? All I will say is I expected Brumbies to win, but I thought the Reds would be starchier.

This is the same sort of defensive pattern the Reds ran last year that doesn't work.

Passive and jockey.

Red card for Horwill.

Enjoy wherever you're going in England, because I hope to fuck you're nowhere near the Wallabies.

You had it there for a couple of years, and you lost it.
