The Silver Fern

Lara Pitt is the Australian rugby league equivalent.

Though without the grating voice.

How so politicised? Is 60% that stunning for Munster given its resources etc ?

Nicely taken try. More ill discipline from the Drua with the last passer getting a shoulder charge

Should have been YC

Grub

We haven't put together a complete game yet. But the desire and grit is there. We are building nicely

That Chiefs game at home was pretty close to it against quality opposition.

Quality second half

Yes, true. Would be cool if we can put out a full 80 this weekend.

They're playing "Slice Of Heaven" at the stadium, that's hilarious.

Forward pass at 4.24 of this:

@booboo said in Reds v Blues:

I did give up at half time as I was getting fucked off with the officiating.

Just into second half and Ta'avao's try gets wiped out. Seriously?

Genuine question: is the restriction on the number of phases you can go back no longer a thing?

I'll continue to grumble through the rest of the game ...

Way is always like this.

@Duluth thanks

Imagine it'll be Lolesio starting with Donaldson on the bench.

Slug out it out for this season. Then two words. Better Recruitment.

Our recruitment is miles better than what is has been. We have actually recruited players who have made a difference.

Good recruitment is not bringing starting players in. It is bringing the right young guys through.

Seems we were quick to sign U20 talent. Some may have not been the right guys.

Yes in retrospect I didn’t quite make my comment clear. The recruitment this year has been good and getting some players with actual super rugby experience has been incredible beneficial.

It was more a reflection on the past 2-3 years. I’m just incredibly frustrated that a group that has largely been together at NPC and super rugby has made very little progress. Everyone was very confident 2-3 years ago that we had a lot of up and coming talent and it really hasn’t resulted in many gains

@Old-Samurai-Jack said in Crusaders v Reds:

Zero analysis, just snide comments.

Sounds like the perfect ferners.

Tizzano outplayed McReight and Donaldson making a move for the Wallaby 10 shirt

Another belter of a game

@Nepia said in Reds v Moana Pasifika:

Pity that Taumoefolau decided to play for Tonga, poor form by Ta$man that they can't keep their young kids wanting to play for NZ. 😉

He opted not to play for them last year in the PNC and on the EOYT. Make of that what you will...

@Rancid-Schnitzel said in Reds v Wales:

Damn. Only found out this was on this morning. Wonder if there are any more tickets available....

Looks like plenty of tickets unsold.

Yeah was going to go but got caught up in that Crowdstrike debacle. Shame because it would have been worth the price of entry.

Looks like Poihipi has moved into 10.

Yes, the backline all moved in one position with Tupaea on the wing.

DMac Spent quite a lot of time eeew aiming around in 10 spot.

Fucken eh

Thought police fucken with me.

@MiketheSnow said in Waratahs v Reds:

Bowen looks promising

Goal kicking would be nice

@MiketheSnow he's definitely a cult hero that Aussie rugby needs right now.
