Waratahs v Rebels

NTA

No sign of Sam Caird yet again. Oh yes there is if you are intending on attending the 3.30pm match at the Glen Willow Stadium in Mudgee where you will see him fronting up for Sydney Uni in their Shute Shield encounter with Eastwood.

P.S. Don't see him on the team sheet, unless he's playing the part of the second Grade trophy aka Colin Caird.

@nta

Whetton’s mobility was the worst thing, maybe he had a niggle? Considerably below his NZ standard. In the Force game Whetton looked like he was putting in a huge effort to catch up to a break then you could see Thrush gently jog past him.

Higgins

@nta He was on it yesterday (with an asterix next to his name) so they must have either dropped him or he was won a recall to the Waratah train wreck. Will see what I can get from my contacts at Sydney Uni (two of my nephews play there).

Higgins

@nta Can confirm the text of return text is "Nephew is saying Caird is a late call up to Tahs duties" He did not elaborate on what the Tahs duties entails.

Stacey Ili scoring a very quick try for the Rebels.

Stargazer

Handbags.

Stargazer

Red?

Stargazer

Naisarani goneburgers.

Bones

That's a bullshit call. Naisarani was bent horizontal. No mitigation eh, sure.

Stargazer

@bones Yeah, not sure what he was supposed to do.

Bones

@stargazer I'm perplexed as to how the officials ignored that completely. It was pretty clear the ball carrier was stooping if Naisarani is bent right over to hit him, only thing he could have done is drop to his knees.

Stargazer

@bones Hopefully, the Foul Play Review Committee gets it right.

Stargazer

Not the best clip. There were better camera angles, I think ...

Just more shit refereeing from the unbelievably incompetent.

Stargazer

Here's a better clip.

Berry seems determined to give that try to the Tahs; looked like a knock on to me.

Rebels are getting screwed, first with that red card, now this try.

Stargazer

And another red card. Pone Fa'amausili (Rebels) sent off for basically the same thing as Naisarani.

Stargazer

Rebels playing with 13 men at moment.

This one was worse.
