St.George Queensland Reds announce Round 6 team against Waratahs

The St.George Queensland Reds have made four changes to their starting XV for Saturday’s away match against the Waratahs in Sydney.

I'll go out on a limb and suggest the Reds are favourites

This could be a record low crowd in Tahs history.

[KiwiMurph]

Newsome might be the worst player to ever captain a Super side.

Really? I know only the bottom tier is open but it looks ok to me. Not big by any means but not the lowest. I remember them playing them in Newcastle a year or two back in cyclonic conditions in front of almost no-one.

There must be a better HB in NSW than Grant he takes 2 steps sideways every time he passes he squeezes the outside runners too much.
He can’t tackle either.

Looks worse in that massive stadium

@chris he's so small he's not a running threat either.
