Rebels v Blues
-
Rieko gone again. Bugger! This one seems more than just a head knock too. Hope he's Allgood.
Big turnover from Riccitelli at the end there.

The way he’s holding himself up, it doesn’t look good at all.

Rieko tried to get to his feet and sat back down.
Stretcher coming out
That was nasty. Couldn’t even sit straight.
Head looked to hit the Rebels player hip or knee

Rieko needs to pass
If his form continues (looks like he might have a couple of weeks off now) then we'll probably have a rookie starting at centre for the ABs.

@KiwiMurph said in Rebels v Blues:
One thing I've noticed
Caleb's defence seems much better that previous times I've seen him live
He uses his speed very well to cover
Clearly been an off season well spent focusing on balance issues.

Gotta start sometime. I'd have zero problem with Billy Proctor at 13 for ABs.

Me too, just that not every SR great player gets straight into the international grove

Like Laidlaw said post match, B Proctor makes players around him look better and is the first name on the team sheet for a reason. He’ll go bloody well for the ABs I reckon. Similar to Conrad Smith defensively but is harder to put down when he attacks.
Who wasn’t there last week against the Brums… it definitely showed.

He also looks fitter. Not as many glaring mistakes.
Rebels are a pretty well drilled side.
If I were Joe Schmidt I’d be seriously looking at Josh Canham for a call up. An athletic 6’8 that attacks lineout ball and has a big workrate. He’s still young but this boy looks to have a big future.

Proud of the boys. Gotta stick to our processes. Respect to the opposition, they're a great team, and played well.
