The "other" round 5 Super Rugby games

[Stargazer]

Rebels v Waratahs is on Sky Sport 3.

[NTA]

And for once this doesn't look like a dour cripple fight.

But we've only had one quarter, and I'm listening on radio so maybe my perception is not reality

[Stargazer]

What's wrong with the Tahs this year. Last year they were fighting for a spot in the finals; now it's for the wooden spoon?
Did they lose a lot of their better players?

13-3 to the Rabble after 27 minutes.

[Stargazer]

Did the commentator just compare the level of play with how the game is played in NZ? IS HE BLIND?

Or did I hear it wrong?

[Stargazer]

Two great tries to the Rebels now; way too easy how the Tahs defence is leaking ...

Kiwi coach. Fucking Deans all over again.

They sound like the first year of Cheika actually - look good occasionally BUT can't finish.

And there is another one.

[Stargazer]

@NTA LOL. You'll have to do better than that ...

Cantab coach. Fucking Deans all over again.

Slight correction

Man the Tahs are looking average. Supposedly the return of Foley was supposed to sort things out.

[NTA]

But the play was pretty good that first quarter. Then the Rebels clicked.

[antipodean]

Gibson better be dusting off the resume.

[Nepia]

@NTA Comeback's definitely on. Rebels need to develop into an 80 minute team.

[NTA]

Loving the Melbourne crowd.

Draw is on.

[NTA]

Well fuck. Looks like we got away with it.

[Stargazer]

Much better second half from the Tahs and a great come back. Actually, quite an entertaining game to watch.

[antipodean]

Thanks christ for the yellow card.

[mariner4life]

The Rebels couldn't win a rigged raffle

[Stargazer]

Sunwolves v Stormers. I doubt very much that I'll watch the full 80 minutes.

[Damo]

Impressive stadium. Shame there's no-one there.

[Stargazer]

@Damo Yeah, that's why the idea - that was floated a couple of times when they were still pondering on the current format - to base a Pacific team in Singapore is a bad idea.
