Rebels v Force

@Bovidae

Moli is 'close to playing'

Force injury updates:

Force lose Rodda as injury crisis deepens resulting in call to former fringe Crusaders prop

Western Force coach Simon Cron says Izack Rodda's untimely quad injury is hard on the team, and he'll take a careful approach with the star.

[Duluth]

Continuing on from last week, the Rebels can’t execute a 5m lineout

[Duluth]

That was good. Kellaway too good for this team

[Bones]

This fella shouting on the sidelines is fucking hilarious and has some tenacity as I heard him right at the start in the previous game. "HE'LL DROP IT AGAIN HE'LL DROP IT AGAIN!"

[ACT Crusader]

The defence from both sides looks a little shaky. Could be a high scoring match

[antipodean]

Is anyone still labouring under the belief that Tupou is a net benefit?

Reminds me of a Brumbies game years ago. Giteau was screwing up everything, the crowd was quiet apart from one guy after each error “Get. To’omua. On. The. Field. NOW”.

He was as loud as the commentators in the tv coverage

[Duluth]

Another lineout in a good position for the the Rebels. Again they can’t win their own ball

[Canes4life]

Man I wish Matt Proctor stayed in NZ. He would have been a long term AB for sure. His defence is all class.

[antipodean]

That kick, chase, leap and catch was superb by Potter.

[Duluth]

@Canes4life did you miss the first Force try?

[Canes4life]

@Duluth wasn’t his man was it? Proctor has cleaned up about 6 guys so far from what I’ve seen. Defs one of the best defending centres in the game.

Annnnd he’s off injured.

[antipodean]

Nice counter attack by Potter, but that pass is clearly forward.

[Bones]

@antipodean beating a tackle was the only thing he did right there. That was gross.

[African Monkey]

@Canes4life He played 1 test? And was 26 when he left?

Man this could be a long season for the Rebels. Off field problems affecting on field performance?

Long term as in Anthony Tuitavake long term or Rudi Wulf long term?

[Duluth]

@Canes4life wasn’t helped by the lock inside him but he was drifting hard when the the two attackers outside were covered. Well taken by Donaldson.

[African Monkey]

@ACT-Crusader Frank Halai long term.

And I just checked, he was 27 when he left with 1 test again Japan, a test where Brett Cameron played in.

[African Monkey]

Rebels back in it.

I blame Grant Fox 😉

I quite like Proctor’s game but he wasn’t even a fringe AB.
