Tuculet and Creevy on the bench is strange. Boffelli is a talent but i think he looks more a winger.

Looks to me they might be targeting next weeks game against the Brums

I dont actually think Sefa has enough subtlety in his game to be a 13. He is explosive but his hands leave alot to be desired.

That sounds just about right for a WB 13.

Only thing is i don't get why Uelese isn't in the starting xv, is this going to be our new "why isn't Fainga'a or hardwick starting at 7 discussion"? Rangi is a solid player but i don't think he offers more than Uelese.

What has Rangi done wrong though? I thought he has been playing well.

He has been playing well, absolutely no doubts about that however Uelese was the incumbent prior to injury, played fairly solidly without being spectacular prior to this. But at the end of the day in my opinion he isn't a better player than Uelese, i also think Rangi is a better impact player than Uelese so more suited to the bench. I can see both sides of the argument tho. It's a good problem to have if we can't justify one over the other without been critical of any performances. :)

Would you believe it, the game that ALL three of my boys will attend, we get a severe weather warning.
I bailed because it looked too nasty to take my 1 and 3 year olds and now it seems to have cleared up.

Coleman looks a lot better today, a number of dominant tackles of the kind that punctuated his excellent season in Gold last year.

Yep with all the talent on disposal yet again rebels outside of mafi are just so ordinary.

Looks like rebels will lose to jaguars - hopefully this is the wake up call for how shit as a team they are playing despite all their supposed talent. Sorry but to claim wessels is a great coach after rebels last 3 games is not a good call!

Much as I hate to agree with Marto, I think Nic Berry may have got that last call wrong.....

I guess people will say Rebs should taken the draw but one extra comp point (draw v losing BP) probably isn't going to make that much difference so good on 'em for rolling the dice & going for the win.

Yep, Berry just bottled it completely a more experienced ref would have blown a penalty.
