Rebels v Drua
-
How is Lomani surprised that an elbow to the back of the head off the ball is worthy of a red card?
-
And another stupid red from the Drua.
Are the Drua well tonight?
-
Discipline a real issue with the Drua in this match. Although having said that, the Rebels hooker seems like a right fluffybunny worthy of a headbutt. Dane Coles like niggle. Can't argue with the end effect. Good stuff.

Should be a couple of long suspensions
Yep, no tackle school discount here. Six weeks minimum.

Valid. Mafi's a cock.

Fuck the Drua piss me off.
That was some grubby shit out there today and if they put it away, they would have probably pretty easily got past the Rebels.
Leaked three tries during the first YC when they were comfortably ahead

That’s as may be, but he’s putting this one right in the pool room. Just like Fitzy did after he left his delicious ear out where Le Roux couldn’t resist it.
-
@antipodean am sure there will be a way to discount them...fight club, anger management.
They'll miss Lomani big time.
Those incidents are what red cards are for, not accidental head contacts, although fans shouldn't be punished with a15 v 13 match due to 2 morons, so IMO still a 20 min card.
-
I think the Drua were gonna struggle to hold on regardless of the red cards tbh. Their set piece was getting destroyed out there.
-
By geez I can see teams perhaps thinking to annoy the Drua might pay dividends.
Dumb red cards really, can understand the players wanting to give a bit of a clip under the ear for in Lomanis case being taken out without ball, and other one just someone getting lippy in his face, but how they actually reacted was dumb. I can see either team trting to play with so much control they will lose their flair, or teams just niggling them for a bit? -
A classic case of one team playing to their strengths and stopping the other in their tracks from using theirs and capitalising of the fustration that causes.
Dura forwards didn't stand up when they were needed, if they'd managed to stop the rolling maul they would have won but they let in 3 tries(?) via the maul and just as many out wide when their defence compressed too far in to stop the maul and left gaps out wide.
Shows sometimes how rugby is a simple game, sometimes all you need is one attacking play that works well and a little bit of brains on top to easily win games.
