Really looking forward to seeing this Reds team in action - they should be taking a leap forward to top 4 this year.

interesting seeing Asiata starting, he was pretty average for us at NPC last year, looked really unfit , was most often off the bench.

[Duluth]

Kicking off now

[KiwiMurph]

Strong start Reds

[Tim]

Gonna be a long night for MP's soft defense.

Bright start by Asiata

[antipodean]

Reds scoring at more than a point a minute

[Duluth]

That was classy. Reds have 3 already

[gt12]

Fucking hell MP are fucking terrible.

The reds are good, but fuck this MP team is shocking.

[gt12]

Finally a bit of ball and consistency. They should just try to make sure they never give the other team the ball.

[gt12]

That was a shit call.

Looks like we’ve got head contact anyway.

[KiwiMurph]

Ardie nice

[gt12]

These head contact penalties do 100% nothing to reduce concussion. That was a bear hug and there have beeen 50 worse instances of head contact in close carries worse than that.

Ardie nice

It was, but he was watching play like mad earlier. Hopefully that will drive him to get more involved.

[KiwiMurph]

Can someone tell Paul Williams we are trying to speed up the game this year.

This is ridiculous

[gt12]

This looks bad

[KiwiMurph]

Paisami could be in big trouble here

[KiwiMurph]

In fairness he does try and get low

[gt12]

Wow. Rugby play is the ruling.
