Ireland's favourite English nepotist is claiming the Waratahs watered their pitch. They are claming they didn't.

Murray Kinsella  /  Jul 5 Farrell says Waratahs watered the pitch. Waratahs say they didn't Farrell says Waratahs watered the pitch. Waratahs say they didn't

The Australian side have pointed to the bad weather in Sydney earlier this week.

Irish and British don't have experience of wet pitches? Does it not rain over there?

Dry as a nun's in Ireland

No sleight of hand. No swerve, no nous. He didnt construct any of them himself.

Did you actually watch the full tries or simply the final outcome?

The first try came from a huge break which was the result of a perfectly timed pass by Rieko in midfield to put Beauden in space.

Yeah haha he started and finished off the play.

I didn't have too much of a problem with that last try being given.

Blues v Tahs to determine who gets smoked by the Chiefs in the finals (unless Moana get up over the Canes).

In my mind, the Waratahs are favourites.

See your GP for brain worms.

RFKJ syndrome?

Forward pass at 4.24 of this:

How the flying fuck is Gardner a referee? He said in real time it went backwards and he'd be the only person who thought that. On review "clear knock on".

Motikai Murray is a good player abit similar to ardie savea

Teamwork

@Tim said in Moana Pasifika v Waratahs:

Young tighthead prop Feleti Sae-Ta'ufo'ou: how is his scrummaging?

Went quite well in the last 2 games, especially against international class opposition.

Probably no need for Mafileo now unless injury strikes.

I agree but I fear he will wear the 15 jersey. IMO, the best back three could be Love - Jordan - Tangitau.

20572 attendance I believe

Local derby but that's still good

@KiwiMurph said in Waratahs v Force:

Tahs ticking along very nicely

Up to Brisvegas next week. Hopefully Sandcorp is in better shape than Allianz

@KiwiMurph said in Waratahs v Drua:

O'Donnell's looks a talent at 13 for Tahs

Angry looking.
Direct.
Good defender.

Hope to see more of him.

@Kiwiwomble said in Waratahs v Highlanders R1:

@Dan54 sweet, where was that announced?

Just last night I think .It on super rugby website.

@MiketheSnow said in Waratahs v Reds:

Bowen looks promising

Goal kicking would be nice

@Dan54 said in Moana Pasifika v Waratahs:

Would imagine Tane will be pretty happy, they went well.

Don't think Tane Edmed would be all that happy.....

e or a to finish, someone will be happy. I been to rugby and had abeer before coming home,ok? 😁

I'd say "put a bullet in the Tahs" but RA can't afford a bullet

I like seeing Aussie teams being smashed off the park by NZ teams as much as the next man… but gee super rugby is a boring, predictable competition.

Wouldn’t it be great to see 5 high quality, competitive games of rugby each week. Hell I’d even settle for one blowout a week and take 4 good games.

It’s been nothing but predictable for the most part this year. Have you even been watching Super Rugby?

Aussies just need to get better playing away.

Of course I’ve been watching.

Yes, the Canes being top and Crusaders being shit is not predictable.

My point is there are big blowouts every week, and most games you know who’s going to win, which in my opinion is boring.

My tips would say otherwise
