Rebels v Force
-
Yeah probably a tough watch. Might be important in deciding the wooden spoon
Another kiwi playing for the Force this week. Ta$man's Ryan Coxon has got an injury replacement contract and starts. Previously played SR for Crusaders & Chiefs mostly as a sub

Probably for Moli. Did Atu play any pre-season games? Tauakipulu is another prop with a NZ connection (St Kents, NZ Schools), but didn't get much opportunity in NSW so moved West. Still very young though.
I'll be honest, I didn't watch any of the Aust-based games in Rd 1.

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

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

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!"

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

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

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

@Canes4life did you miss the first Force try?
-
Nice counter attack by Potter, but that pass is clearly forward.

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

@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 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.
@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.

@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.

Rebels back in it.
