@taniwharugby what was wrong with Barrets form, he had 40 min of test rugby after finishing the super season in good form

He was not our best lock last year, Vaai was, which was unexpected. He was slow starting in Super, getting to good but not great heights by the end of it. Holland was more impressive in Super and impressive in his first tests.
If you were to pick solely on form and not shoehorn Vaai to 6, he might well not start.

Fuck you disrespectful Argie fluffybunnies.

Don't drown out the anthem.

[booboo]

Shout over the haka by all means.

But leave the anthem.

[Yeetyaah]

That stadium looks like it'd be horrible to watch a game at from a pure viewing perspective.

[Victor Meldrew]

Singer looks like the Go Compare bloke's brother

[Yeetyaah]

Is their anthem always this long?

[antipodean]

@Yeetyaah longer than their hold on the Falklands

[Yeetyaah]

French ref here we go

[Landers92]

I think this might be the best shape I’ve seen EDG in. Looking trimmer than previous seasons

[No Quarter]

Already a stupid rubber lol

[Darth Sader]

Good start, but I would rather Jordie kicked tbh

[Mattasaurus]

Great ruck there, good to see #s in for the counter ruck

[canefan]

We are looking very good so far. Forwards fronting up

[No Quarter]

Excellent start

[canefan]

Nice grab by Reece

[Darth Sader]

Nice try! Small gripe, but when we have a penalty kick to line out, Taylor always walks ahead of the kicker. The wrong ref might call that.

[No Quarter]

The positioning of the TJ was very good to call that try. Hey we bitch about the refs enough, thought I'd make a positive in-game comment

[canefan]

Our forwards are playing well at the breakdown

[akan004]

We are bringing more line speed this year. Good to see.
