Re: Super Rugby SF2 - Chiefs Vs Brumbies

BigBoof Retallick with some Etzebeth against White, and where's the f''''g yellow card for the shoulder to the head in the tackle against Slipper? A possible red, and yet it seems they've shelved cards for this game. If they allow it, these pricks will be doing it all night.

Re: BRUMBIES V CANES Quarter of the Capitals Match Thread.

Well-done Brumbies! A good, see-sawing game but the Brumbies the better team overall, with the dominance in tries. They did well to cover the loss of Toole and the Brumbies locks can be expecting calls from Eddie Jones (imo) as the scrum dominated the Canes' 8 and the tight 5s of our other 2 sides w...

Re: BRUMBIES V CANES Quarter of the Capitals Match Thread.

Corey Toole is a big loss for the Brumbies. He is a game-changer in the manner of Joe Roff, though a very different type of player. Apart from that, it will all be up to whether the Brumbies hold up in the tight 5. Only the Brumbies and the Force have had a highly competitive tight 5 this year, and ...
