Reds v Highlanders

[Mattasaurus]

<p>Bloody good try by the Reds</p>

[No Quarter]

Super slow mo of Aaron Smith stepping. Comms: "Look at Sopoaga...".

[Damo]

<p>This Faddes guy is something isn't he?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Been good the last couple of weeks on the wing, and now filling in for Ben Smith he is looking great.  </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I can feel a plucky loss coming on here.  </p>

[Mattasaurus]

<p>another good try to the reds,</p>

[No Quarter]

Looked about a foot forward to me but what would I know.

What's the fucking point of having a TMO? Really?<br><br>
Clearly forward out of the hands.

[Mattasaurus]

<p>We seem to be falling off a lot of tackles.</p>

[Bones]

Whitelock is playing much better but still doesn't really fit the highlanders game plan - at least not in the wide channels. Twice now they've had a positive looking attack and he's been found out wide and tucked the ball with no thought other than taking the tackle and going to ground.

[Unite]

Good kick that one

[Bones]

Osborne is having an absolute shitter on defence.

[antipodean]

How the hell is that play on? Every other ref on earth gives that as a lazy running penalty.

<p>Hometown Jackson needs to read the offside rule</p>

Hah I was just going to say exactly those words. Ignore the 3 offside guys on that play and award the penalty to the reds.

[Mattasaurus]

<p>fuck off glen</p>

[Tordah]

<p>what the fuck was Jackson doing there, embarassing refereeing</p>

[Bones]

Every reply I see seems to show either of our props having a nice little relaxing walk. Not good. <br><br>
Really weak defence too, just going backwards in the tackle.

[hydro11]

<p>Great scrambling defence but the Highlanders are falling off way too many tackles.</p>

[Mattasaurus]

<p>JJ will be putting on the steel caps and preparing the riot act</p>

[African Monkey]

<p>Awful display from the Highlanders so far. Need an attitude adjustment in the 2nd half.</p>
