Another win. So good. Billy Proctor has to be the first choice AB 13 this season.
Imagine how amazing we'd be if Riley Higgins was still fit.

@Canes4life haven’t seen an ABs hooker this poor since Anton Oliver
It's frustrating because everything else he does is top class. It's just his throwing.
It's a shame there isn't an Andy Haden type figure demanding he gets it right and training one-to-one with him until he does.

I adore and I adore and I adore the sweet sound of Australian boos on the final whistle. Great way to make the away win even sweeter, fellas. Keep doing it please!

Reds clean out way past the tackle near half way
That's been a bit of trait of all the Aussie teams this year... doesn't seem to be getting pinged a lot either.

We haven't put together a complete game yet. But the desire and grit is there. We are building nicely
Just need to keep players healthy. That seems half the battle atm.

Proctor played well but that was a bad defensive read for McDermott's try at the start of the 2nd half. There was no reason to bite and take PUJ's man.
Yeah that was probably his only blip all game. Good move by the Reds, he doesn’t miss many, especially like that.
Proctor is such a key cog for any side he plays for. In the last 21 games he’s played for the Lions, Hurricanes, All Blacks XV and All Blacks he’s only lost twice and drawn once.
Twice for the Canes last year (Brumbies away and Chiefs in the semi), and a draw against the Force in Perth about a month back in his return game from injury where he came off the bench.
Once he takes a hold of the AB 13 jersey, good luck getting it back off him.

@Canes4life Proctor, brilliant, but deep down, we all no Reiko will be 13, don't we?, just different situation, from Super to Test Rugby, just conversation from me., thanks

Most likely, but if Razor has any sense he will pick Proctor. We want our wingers to score tries don’t we? Then we need a centre that can distribute.

What we want and what Razor gives us will probably be too vastly different things

That Chiefs game at home was pretty close to it against quality opposition.

Yes, true. Would be cool if we can put out a full 80 this weekend.
