    The defence of the Drua is something to witness. Some big tackles going on out there. We'll see whether they can keep them legal or the Tahs will want to keep running the ball.

    This is great. Drua just smashing every ball carrier backwards. Going to be some sore ribs in the Tahs shed.

    Didn’t the Tahs all pack on another 15kgs so they wouldn’t get dominated?😹😹

    Langi Gleeson could be what Eddie Jones is looking for in the 8 jersey
    Gleeson
    Valentini
    Hooper
    Thats not a bad trio
    Is the quickest over 40 metres in the tahs squad
    20 years old what a talent..!

    This isn’t a bad game to watch. Lots of ball movement and continuity.

    Plus a real tussle rather than a one-sided scorefest. Good watch for a neutral.

    Gee that was a good score from Gleeson. Knew he didn't have the power to go over the top, so just burrowed underneath. Put in some hard yards tonight. Still had work to do though. Some of those hits from the Drua have been borderline at best.

    Tahs discipline is terrible

    That said, some of the tackles by the Drua are going without sanction

    @NTA Whoever put in that rib-tickler on Tahs 15 is lucky to be on the field.

    Only saw it once. Timing looked ok.

    When the Drua find a dependable set piece and defensive discipline, they'll be a contender for the top half of the ladder.

    That day is not this season.

    He's playing like someone that's got a lot more rugby under his belt. He's also a sizeable lad. I'd bet Eddie is liking what he sees.

    He didn't get stopped easily - unlike some more experienced Waratahs.

    The acceleration into contact was important, and it was like the Drua simply didn't have time to adjust so his angles and footwork are obviously good.
