That's classic. Muirhead dives on the ground under Gilbert and Gilbert gets penalised for not being on his feet.
Gardiner likes to only ref one team at a time eh. That not straight lineout call earlier was hilarious too, following a lineout where the Brumbies might as well have just thrown to their halfback.
There he is...

I love Billy Harmon
We would be fine if we could have 14 more of him
He's the kind of guy every team needs

Up against a solid team full of experienced and international players, at home, we're making a good fist of it.
Nailed it. We gave them a bloody good go. Probably right in our 6th place finish. We need to get our forwards a bit morw powerful over the next eight months. Our midfield is a bit shit. Both oue first fives have limitations. It depends which limitation we want. Season is a 6.5/10

Absolutely pathetic display tonight. Tony Brown would've gotten more out of this group.

May be he would have. He is the assistant coach of the best team in the world. Pathetic? A bit rough. It is a very young team. Many of whom are leqrning their craft against seasoned internationals. No one wants to lose. But, the first half for newrly 40 minutes was pretty good. It is easy to slam them, it is better to look for the postivies and growth. Forwards like Holland and Haig were fantastic. We are a young team. Things will improve..

@SouthernMann It was the absolute lack of urgency in the final 20 minutes, win a turnover immediately kick the ball away, a complete lack of desire, walking to lineout, taking a full 30 seconds to decide which spot to take a penalty from. Complete absence of ideas on attack, serious lack of looking at out-of-box ways to get the backs involved, which is something that Brown always worked hard at and excelled even with the more limited squads in seasons past. He was always innovative, even when the team lost under him they were creative and tried new things.

What crap. The last play off game he was in charge of we lost by 29 points to the Blues in 2022. A Blues team miles behind the team that is the 2024 itteration. More limited squads than the kids in the team this year? Celebrate the positives of this year and enjoy the growth. Tony Brown is not coming back
