Rebels v Waratahs
-
Disappointing crowd in. Thought things were doing ok rugby wise in Melbourne. Can't be more than 2k there. Although looks like the boxes have a few in, which probably tells you all you need to know about the Rebels marketing strategy.
Schoolboy rugby so far. Fun to watch tho.

@MajorRage Didn't remember that rule. Thought it was okay if you weren't held in the tackle.
Only if momentum gets you there. It was a clear distinct different movement.
Shame, as it was a cracking run and fully deserved the try!
-
Carter Gordon is fun to watch. He’s not afraid to have a crack.
Hardwick looks to be a decent player, apparently will line up for Namibia in the WC this year.

@Canes4life Yep, Hardwick made his debut for Namibia in November. One of the first non PI players to make use of the changed eligibility rules and change to another country. (Another one being Jack Dempsey)

Hardwick has absolutely dominated Hooper on a couple of occasions. Hooper looks very average.
-
Hardwick in for the Rebels, they are absolutely dominating the Tahs atm.

He's not the only Tah looking decidedely off the pace in this fixture.

Yup, 14 others look fairly average.
-
Hooper looks like he's a bit out of shape. Struggling a bit with the pace, which is very unlike Hooper.
Waratahs looked far the superior team early on, but yet at 3 tries to nil down at half time.
Know I've said this before, but god I hate Maloney as a commentator. Him and Stevenson are two of the same. Just awful.

Have to agree here, didn't look like a tackle on the replay.
-
Rebels start the half looking superb. Passes going to hand, people running good lines in support. Tahs at sixes and sevens in defence.
Unfortunately for the Rebels, it appears they can't maul or scrum.
