Big stadium, very small crowd in Sydney. A sad sight.
With a bit of planning why couldnt Tahs take this game somewhere else in nsw. They only ever play in Sydney.
They signed a deal with the SCG Trust (who run that whole precinct) to play all their Super Rugby games there, after the deal to take games out to Homebush expired.
And I think it's a twenty year agreement. Maybe more.
The other part is understanding that no other ground has decent capacity in NSW that would draw a crowd.
My club had ten free tickets to give away, and none of my club wanted them. So I gave them to randoms on greenandgoldrugby.com
And still had two left

Kings lack variation in their attack and that bit of class to finish off.
Their maul is very well organised though.
-
Wow, they finally made the most of a 3 on 1 overlap....

When you get a crowd figure can you give it to me?
Slut.
-
Haha how many times did they show that one on the big screen.
YC for that?

Kings passing is pretty bad. Most of them go behind the player receiving it.

Pretty harsh call that accidental offside. How many times do we see a halfback kick a ball back into a ruck as he waits for his team to realign and it's never called accidental offside.

No but it should be stopped. TKB does it quite a bit. It is often borderline as to whether the ball was out so the HB gets the benefit of doubt.
If it is out though, then it should be a FK under 16.4(a) Players must not return the ball into a ruck -

Holy shit. That's the game.
What further depths can the Aussie teams plumb?
Well they don't have to play the Sunwolves.

Can't believe this score, but the signs were there against the Force. The Kings are not as bad as last year, and like the Force, playing to make the point that they should be retained in SR. That seems to enable them to dig deep at the end of the game. Enough to beat a team like the Tahs.
-
Small crowd: justified.
On two levels: first it was the Kings, and Saffer teams NEVER draw in Sydney despite all the fucking Saffers living here. Secondly because the Tahs produce this rubbish.
Enjoy the flight home, Daryl. The next coach will be more shit as you've been, but he'll be OUR brand of shit. With all the right vowels n stuff.

I think his cover has been blown.
Perhaps we should have retained John Buchanan at NZ Cricket so that we could organize an exchange?
Who else have we got that we can swap? Maybe we could hand over the English agent, Reason?
