Why throw the ball past six other players to the #13 with the defence set early in the game. Not only did Flook get back up but he got the ball away on the third occasion. Kerevi was the man who handled the hospital pass best.

Les is not used to being the head coach?

Reds snap 25-year drought in Christchurch to beat Crusaders as Wilson, Ryan star

The televised half-time prediction was that the Reds were a 39% chance that winning.

I couldn’t understand the warning. Maybe the ref thought that McReight was stealing the ball too often. It would be good if the excited commentators had given us a count of the penalties in the Crusaders’ Red zone.

Crusaders’ whinging from 1 to 15 is first class.

The ref loves the Canes.

Maybe Wright is a #10. He’s tough and can tackle.

'Purely coincidental': Chiefs coach defends bruiser after ANOTHER late shot leaves Tah flattened - but was it legal?

There are about 2 dozen goons on the paddock; playmakers handling the ball more than the goons deserve reasonable protection.

Waratahs put 50 on Drua to claim FIFTH Super Rugby Women's title, playmaker sent off after ugly stomping incident

Finau seemed to pause momentarily until Edmed had passed the ball so he would be in a more vulnerable position. Smashing the playmaker when he doesn’t expect it it saps them of confidence for the rest of the game is a time honoured rugby tradition. It’s illegal to tackle a player in the air but fine to smash a guy who doesn’t expect to be tackled because he’s doesn’t have the ball already. Finau would have been suspended for a month if he done it to Dan Carter. Edmed does not have sufficient charisma to be entitled to protection.

McKenzie stayed well back from the ruck all game. I’m impressed that the chiefs have a spare lock to run up and smash a players who has already passed the ball. Edmed will be aware of the danger in future. The Tahs struggled to match up late in the game. Gleeson should target smaller playmakers when trying to crash over.

… “talented roster that had stalled under Thorn’s successful six-year reign”. Successful!!!; you’ve got to be kidding. Reds fan numbers at the games dropped to an all-time low with coach Goon in charge. An inarticulate Richard Graham.

Jordan P, guts, pace, determination to attack at all costs, never shirks the hard work, fierce tackler fast and a big boot. We Reds fans want him back. The interest in this article demonstrates the impact JP has. I don’t think he can be taught self-preservation; he wants to win and puts in 100% every game.

'It's disappointing': Petaia's Super season over - and it could end his Reds career

Summer Australian Super Rugby 9/10 combinations might have been able to stop Clark. That charge by Clark will give other teams and attacking tactic worth trying.

Brumbies 'systematically taken apart by the Blues' in 'non-contest' as Larkham's men cop huge reality check

When Funaki was in the bin, the Blues forwards didn’t miss a beat picking and driving ruthlessly. Maybe halfbacks should stay out of the way more.

“Clunky”!
I liked some of your stuff but I think Grealy is too small and too slow. He gets praised for making your tackle because it’s quite an effort for a guy his size.

It would be a different story if Greeley was awake when Harry flicked the ball to him. Wilsons work rate is outstanding and he dominated the Clan’s #8. I would hate to see Valetini have to play every minute of every test match. Coach Clown’s game plan was to make him do all the hard work.

Les Kiss doesn’t use the bench astutely. Angus Blythe is sent on with 6 minutes to go. Mack Greely not strong enough to tackle close to the try line at this level and he is not fast enough.
