@Damo Murphy is pretty silly generally.
Reds shown some glimpses but the basics are once again absent. Crusaders C will probably blow this open in the final 20.
Lol Derps, I still remember seeing him ref his first ever senior game of rugby, it was Borthers 2nd grade against Logan at Brother's home ground. Damon was a Brother's player up till year before that, used to see him play a bit.

Halfway through typing about this being pretty good defence by the Reds and then of course, the Crusaders score.
Not sure how I feel about being able to sub off props when in the middle of a scrum / reset scrum section of the game. Seems a bit of an unfair tactical advantage. I guess nothing is going to stop it going the other way too though.

He was a poor 7s ref, which inevitably results in a dreadful rugby ref. The rucks have been a joke in his game: Players off their feet, clearly not coming through the gate, not supporting their own bodyweight etc.
That 22 - halfway debacle says everything about him as a ref.

@antipodean missed the second half but yeah he's trash. Most of the refs are trash at the moment.

Scrappy game.
And the Suncorp surface was chopped up pretty bad.
Some good touches and nice hard running. LF is in sharp form.
Had to laugh at one of the commentators post game saying Heinz played well. Must’ve watched a different game to me because his laboured approach was poor. Hotham looks the goods.
Depleted Crusaders ground out valuable victory
