The "other" round 2 Super Rugby games

[Tim]

Well there goes any delusions of the Reds being good this year.

How bad was hopeless geriatric George Smith? What a joke that they couldn't find a better seven than that pathetic old has been.

@Tim Didn't Cheika say the door wasn't totally closed on a wallabies recall for Smith?

[Tim]

@canefan

Indeed. Maybe they'll get Stephen Larkham and Jeremy Paul out there too.

[Crucial]

Can I assume that the 'Tongan Thor' (stupid name alert) did not save the Reds with a length of the field run swatting away little kids?

@Tim said in The "other" round 2 Super Rugby games:

And here we go again: "Smith's still got it!" they cry as he rips it up in English Rugby.

Then comes back down here....

First, let me just say

the Reds lost to the Force? oh fuck that's awesome. No doubt it was the ref's fault. Does this mean they are still one of the favourites for the comp? And points to the Australian conference being really tough to win?

Team full of gutless showboats who, if the Sharks didn't shut down for 20 minutes (and the ref blew forward passes) would be 0-2.

"There's a real buzz around Brisbane about the Reds" well, not so much now they lost, and the Broncos won.

[African Monkey]

A lot of that Reds side should either be collecting one last paycheck in Europe somewhere or put in a rest home.

Well done to the Force. They could cause a few problems to some sides if the first 2 rounds is anything to go by.

[MajorRage]

So, for those that have watched the Reds, how is George Smith going?

[mariner4life]

@MajorRage better than Stephen Moore by all accounts

(i didn't watch last night, but he didn't do too much last week, couple of decent touches, but nothing even remotely George Smith-ish).

[hydro11]

Sharks have been quite good so far tonight.

[Stargazer]

@hydro11 Reasonably good game, too.

Incredible try from the Sharks after the hooter!

[hydro11]

Sharks win it in the last minute. Probably the most creativity they had shown all night in the backs.

[Stargazer]

I must be crazy tuning in to the Sunwolves v Kings game ...

[NTA]

[Stargazer]

Very good try from the Kings.

[Stargazer]

Another try to the Kings. If they continue playing like this, they should beat the SWs. I can't be bothered watching the rest of the game. I'm going to watch the back of my eyelids.
