Waratahs v Rebels

Because it seems no-one else could be arsed.

Thirty three minutes in, the score is rabble 10 tards 7. And it's been a cunniver game, qualitywise.

There seem to be more half-decent players missing than can be explained by injury. I'm assuming 'resting' policies are in play here.
