Crusaders v Rebels
-
I was a bit negative about Read after last year's NH tour. I'd hoped an extended break might help bring back the Read of old, or something close, for one last fling. He's had his moments this season so far but also some obvious woopsies and that dropped pill with the line open was a shocker.

Haviliiiiiiiiii!

@shark they will be out in force, can see what Read was trying to do, change hands so he could fend, but to be honest he’s been very good in the first 15 minutes, he then chases a kick and lowers the winger with a superb tackle..it was funny though, and I think everybody could see the funny side of it

He's very much a workmanlike 8 these days though. Those silky touches of old seem to be a thing of the past.

Terrible attempt at a tackle by Meakes. But was there not a penalty there for sealing off in the last ruck?

That was silly by Moody right in fron of the ref

Yes, though I thought the cleanout on him was worth a look by the TMO. Appeared to be a charge to the head. Not saying it wasn't partly deserved, but it did look a bit unnecessary to a guy prone on the ground.

@Jailbreak7 yeah that's yellow card stuff to me, blatant.

@shark I will take workman like , you just know he will do most of his basics well..and he will commit himself to anything in the air..
And he runs the lineout extremely well..! -

@Damo Yep thought the cleanout was a shoulder near the head

Great footwork from Ennor..!

That is an example when advantage should be over in my book. Rebels might have gone 80m if that pass had stuck. They had a clear advantage.
Instead we go back for a scrum 10 metres back from where the lineout would have been. Especially since it was only a scrum advantage. PK advantage would be different.
