    Not a lot of continuity in this game with so many ruck penalties.

    Who is the co-commentator with Clark?

    Might be Sam Wykes? They’ve used him before

    They're dangerous on counterattack the Drua.

    Why on earth would the Drua not put an end to that half rather than risk the predictable turnover?

    Also, what boys club are Stan running to give Drew Mitchell a commentary gig? No analysis which isn't surprising given his barely comprehensible English.

    I've just switched on, and see the replay of this.

    Fuck me.

    Can't complain??? He's lucky he didn't get 3 red cards for that. What an idiot. Late, high, swinging, reckless, contact. So, so dumb.

    Sam Wykes is the commentator

    I might be out on a limb here, but I don't mind Drew Mitchell

    Was the contact direct to head? None of those shots show it.
    Last week a RC was rescinded after a QC found a touch to the should a millisecond earlier than the head.

    Got to admire the handling skills of the Drua.

    In my limited interactions with him he's been a nice guy, but Merhts is the only person who appears to have actual insights. He then has the added benefit of humour.

    I am just pleased whenever it's not Justin Harrison.

    Wykes' calling is somewhat less polished than the rest of the commentary crew - particularly a season pro like Greg Clarke.

    I'm being polite.

    Good win for our guys. Maul in particular as Holloway said after the game. Tahs forwards were better across the park.

    That Hooper try was a thing of beauty - soft hands from a couple of forwards and Edmed doing what he did all game: orchestrate.

    He's got a good range of skills but probably not quite there as far as higher honours go.

    But the game plan DC is using works for the talent we've got - variations in depth and angle, keep working away for the opportunities, and a maturing backline to finish them off.

    I found him hard to listen to, which is why I asked who it was.

    @nta and he copped a bit of a shot on the deck after scoring.

    What is it with players in situations like that?

    TBF they both dived at the same time. A bit lazy
