Its because super rugby refs dont care about straight throws this year for some reason. If they cared the rebels lineout would be even worse than it currently is. Uelese shouldnt get another crack at gold until he can finally get it right.

Jorgo at 15 really?? What has he actually done to deserve that? Kellaway for me

He would get bent like a deckchair against the saffas and ABs. He needs to put on 10-20kg to be in the conversation. Its only his first super rugby season give him 1-2 more seasons first.

Im thinking Isaak fines with white/lonergan off the bench. Interesting to see which direction Schmitty goes

Joe Schmidt's search for a 'cold-hearted bastard' - and the issue he'll lose most sleep over

Would be a very small backline with white, lynagh, toole, gordon, flook, marky mark and kellaway. Probably end up with a mean weight of 80kgs.

Lynagh would be destroyed by international packs. Let the man grow first before we talk test rugby.

He’s a safe shifter type 10, doesn’t tend to think outside the box. However he has played better this season and I wouldn’t write him off. I can just see more potential in Donaldson and Gordon.

Yeh you’ve lost me…

Matt Phillip was our ruck cleaner. The bloke was a master. Very seldom appreciated for his excellent ruck attendance

Hanigan has steppped it up in physicality this year. Looks to have put on some size in the off season. Happy with his progress

Let alone Vunivalu…

Which is why at this stage in the season (not a finality) that J Peteia is not playikg at test level. Though he posses running strength and a massive boot, his inability to do anything consistently and his observed lack of communication means that for now he wouldnt be in my 23.

What was up with the highlanders try? There was no way there was downward pressure. I would have been fuming as Larkham. Didn’t even get a TMO interjection.

Wouldnt argue with LSL in wallabies colours. Juet loved what ive seen from Canham this year.

Yeh hes a workhorse. I was detailing more of the obvious deep friendship that Mcright and Wilson have after playing together so long.

Yes very much agree. Interesting to hear James O’Connor at the beginning of the season saying something to the effect of “the intricacy of the backline moves is something we havent had in years.” I’m loving the Kiss movement so far. Seems like a great leader and tactician.

Donaldson? Was at 100% until last game

Vuni got caught out at least once if not twice not trailing his man on the wing. Always gets caught following the ball

Peteia is an error code. Much better consistency without him in the team. Id let him rest for a couole of weeks and see how this team goes.

Canham & Jed have been immense

No matter what happened in Super it was going to be a distinctly different team. Deranged Eddie can have Japan

Who would have thought – consistent combinations tend to work? I love the McReight / Wilson gang. They look like they play for eachother out there

Australian rugby over the last 3 weeks has definietely been better than last year. I hope it holds out and we get a few more of those tight ones. Well done Reds!

Very true Ferret. I scratched my head many times, when a lineout was seemeing much straighter than previous ones and they get pinged. No consistency. Super rugby refs in general need to get this sorted.
