Super Rugby Round 2: Waratahs v Stormers

[Highlander35]

What a fucking moron. No rugby intelligence or actual intelligence displayed.

Keep a close eye on Stormer 22, replacement 10 Whitehead. On loan from Griquas (gotta love that). Whitehead was the highest points in the Currie Cup.

If I were the Stormers I would go for the scrum, could potentially get a second yellow card

Lets see how the scrum goes without Simmons.

8 man shove was obvious.

 

[TOCC]

Stormers are killing themselves, needed to keep the ball in the scrum and lacking a bit of discipline

 

[cyclopath]

Thats a yellow card, dangerous play taking a player out in the line out like that

Indeed it was.

Memo to Gibson your idea of a mobile forward pack did not work last year. Everyone can see that you need big heavy forwards for scrums and duh you throw it out there again that a mobile pack is the way to go and the scrum goes backwards.

Paddy Ryan and Tom Robertson are getting creamed. We are lucky not to have them both in the bin.

Our mobile pack is getting pushed back and mauled to pieces. We need go forward.

Du Toit hasn't had the impact I expected.

 

[TOCC]

Indeed it was.

Im not in the habit of just pointing out decisions the ref makes, I posted that comment before it was called back

Dont agree. Stormers have a game up in Super working the scrum rules, it's a huge advantage. These rules dont favour size - though I'd listen to counter views by experts. I think they favour technical props.

Tahs front row is doing alright - you should have seen the penalties last week. BUT they will need to step it up following this experience.

Wasn't having a go at you. I was agreeing. Relax.

Sorry I don't agree. The front row is getting creamed. The front row collapsing and our go forward is poor

It also isn't just at the scrum, our forwards are getting pushed around.

Do we have crowd numbers?

Drew Mitchell is candidate for worst Aussie commentator now.

So bad.

I hate the Ned Hanigan circle jerk but Jesus Christ I've seen him miss atleast four tackles tonight and knock it on 2-3 times.



I'm going to rewatch the game but it's maddening.



Looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane.



Very keen to see the stats.

He is having a shocker tonight. I hope its just rust. I really hope he improves.

Rough way for Simmo to finish his first game in sky blue.

Bloody Hell we blew it there
