Reds v Blues

[Steven Harris]

Once again a short pass was not what was required it needed to go wide ..
Lack of creativity beggars belief

[brodean]

Yeah they need a new backline coach

[akan004]

Zarn has been very poor.

[booboo]

Ref making shit up there

[booboo]

And again

[booboo]

Ok. Am going to do my best for the Blusers...

Am of to bed.

Ha!

[Bones]

That carry was everything that is broken with Rieko. A jump step upon receiving the ball, that goes nowhere and is 5m before any defenders, then tuck the ball, head down and run straight into two defenders.

[Steven Harris]

Reds showing plenty of creativity manipulating players into space
What a novel idea

[Bones]

Dumb by Telea, fucking why?

Great hit, embellished for no reason.

[Canes4life]

Yeah Tele’a might be in trouble there

[akan004]

Kiwi players are getting dumber every year.

[Tim]

That was fucking dumb.

[Bones]

Dollars to donuts it gets upgraded, then he gets pardoned in the week. Then Tomkinson gets upgraded during the week.

Feel for Telea, a lot of momentum in that hit. Don't think he was trying to do a lift, but I won't be surprised to see a red.

[Steven Harris]

Need Portia Woodman-Wickcliffe to come in and show some of these players how to effect a lifting driving tackle safely

[Bones]

I find it bizarre how drastically worse Christie gets on attack as his career progresses.

You read it here first!

In the battle of the ginger halfbacks tonight, Tate is winning that by a country mile.

[Bones]

Way tries to throw off Plummer, when there's zero reason to halt the conversion.

[Steven Harris]

@hydro11 the key to that type of tackle is to drive the player down on to their back safely which gives the tackled player no opportunity to place the ball in an advantageous position for the cleaners coming in and an opportunity for the tackler who should be still on their feet to jackal
Once you lift a player it’s your responsibility to bring them down safely..
Portia Woodman-Wickcliffe effects this type of tackle brilliantly
