Tahs are very clinical, super structured in defence. Reds aren't going to score unless they luck on a hole, Tahs being very opportunistic and patient which so far has yielded them a 20-0 lead

Reds on attack. Neville makes an impact. After a few phases the Reds lose the ball 15m out from Tahs line

Penalty to the Tahs. Beale clears it. Line out on half way

 

[p.Tah]

Line out messy. Beale makes a break. Great line from Guilford but the ball lost a ruck. Scrum to Reds

 

[p.Tah]

Ref telling front rows that they're being silly buggers

 

[p.Tah]

Penalty to Reds. Clear for touch.
Reds win line out
But penalty as Mumm goes into maul from side

 

[Sully]

Ref is part of the problem. One second telling them to get closer and then penalising for pre-engage. In my opinion a bullshit ruling.

 

[p.Tah]

Reds go to touch again. Siren goes.
Tahs win line out.
Ball dropped. Hunt picks it up.
Reds drop it.
Phipps kicks for touch.
Half time

Half time chat:

The commentators were saying that the intention was always to play Beale at 10 for this game, even before Foley was injured. The only other position you'd consider playing Foley in is 15 so either the intention was to bench him or was it this?:

9. Phipps
10. Beale
11. Guildord
12. Horne
13. Folau
14. Carraro
15. Foley

 

[p.Tah]

Half Time. 20-0 to Tahs

More likely was Foley off the bench for this game

This has been hard to watch. We have been pretty ordinary but fuck Angus seems to have a hard on for us. Can't take a trick.

One try looked to be from a knock on and another came after Skelton flattened a Red off the ball with his shoulder but apparently no one noticed.

Can't be arsed retyping this

Inspirational speech time from RG. God help us!
