[waiopehu oldboy]

Clan CEO is confident Rebs will make it to NZ in time for the scheduled Sunday arvo match in Queenstown but have a Plan B of meeting them in Sydney.

Looks more likely game will be in Sydney. Shame , but there are more important concerns than where a game is played.

Hope all are safe in Melbourne.

Are Rebs in Sydney yet? Being reported over here that Vic is about to go into lockdown.

Good work to everyone involved for having a working contingency plan. And would you look at that, with the 'Tahs in town and it being round 3, we've got 40% of a super round! Neat.

Rebels left yesterday for Sydney

7 day lock down confirmed for Melbourne

Don't think we will be playing the Crusaders at home in a couple of weeks. At best it will be without fans.

Game moved to Leichardt Oval on Sunday.

Hopefully a few Sydneysiders get out to support the Rebels as it's a cracking place to watch Rugby.

Leichardt oval just around the corner for me so definitely in to see that game as also great ground close to the action to watch rugby at

People should go to leichardt oval if not been as not often you get this close up to watch super rugby players in action.

Be safe, Victoria.

Clan: Josh Ioane, Sio Tomkinson, Michael Collins, Scott Gregory, Jona Nareki, Mitch Hunt, Aaron Smith (cc), Hugh Renton James Lentjes, Shannon Frizell, Josh Dickson, Pari Pari Parkinson, Siate Tokolahi, Liam Coltman (cc), Ethan de Groot. Reserves: Ash Dixon, Ayden Johnstone, Jeff Thwaites, Manaaki Selby-Rickit, Kazuki Himeno, Kayne Hammington, Ngantungane Punivai, Billy Harmon.

50th cap for Lentjes. 6/2 bench is interesting.

Fun fact: Rebs have won their last two v Clan.

And it is 5pm here on sunday isn't it ? Sounds good way to end weekend.

Still no Pone in the Rebels but a pretty good team nonetheless. I would prefer a proper on-baller, bit odd to have Wells at 7. But all three of Wells, Naisarani and Leota have been good so difficult to leave any out. Gordon retains 10, Worth has another shot at 15. Is Pincus still hanging around? I swear Anderson was seen in gold for 7s. Hopefully Koroibete can break his drought.

This is the best team we have managed to put out all season.

Add Pone, DHP and Hodge to the team and it’s a good enough team to contest SRAU

Wessels dropped too soon?

Wessels dropped too soon?

Personally I think he left too early. But in the past now. Cant say wasn’t give enough time and opportunity

Yeah, sorry. Poor form rubbing a recent wound.

 

[Rebels3]

Magnay ruled out. Our midget backline will resume again

Midget backline off to a great start.

Just back from 24 hours in the boondocks so, yeah, lighting the fire & settling in with a few cold ones is defo the go!

Rebels are a hilarious watch. Score a turnover and turnover it over within the same turnover, then follow it up with a high tackle.

Parody of a rugby team. Hows To'omua get away with that by the way?

 

[Dctarget]

I remember being so optimistic about the Rebels before this season with our team list. Man, what happened..
