@Stargazer very impressive..agree looked a completely different team..Brumbies would have come with some confidence,but the one thing you don’t do against the canes is get into a loose game..impressed with Liam Mitchell for young guy only playing his 3rd super game looks very skilful ..and great to see Dane Coles returning to the player we know ..liked the look of the young NRL player who came on for the Brumbies ,Tom Wright..?,looks seriously quick and good footwork..good win for the Canes..I don’t think the Brumbies will be an easy team to beat moving forward..some harsh coms about David Pocock ..but having met the guy..he’s actually a class act on and off the paddock..
Indeed. I remember when I met David Campese - all media stuff would indicate that he was a bit of a fluffybunny. And he was, but one with a smile on his face. Which was inline with his media personality too.
Which means, I'm making no point at all, other than I stand by thoughts that Pocock is a colossal virtue signaller.

@Nepia @Crucial just checked to see if there's any space for you guys on the bandwagon but no, there is not.
Hey, I only came to this thread as you name dropped me.
No waka jumping intention from me (even though my one looks decidedly leaky at present). My switch was never about results.

Pocock finally being sent off was the highlight of the game for me. Fuck off you whinging virtue signaller.

Any Aussies watching this on Kayo? I was watching delayed from the start on my iPad and then broadcast on the Chromecast and it bloody went to the current time.
I was watching it delayed. That is a worry. Will keep it in mind not to change outputs mid stream

Just watched the second half again with her indoors. Couple of things:
- Was that Tito in the crowd just before full time? Mn5 would've felt right at home.
- What an egg Pocock is - why did he decide he had to stretch his hammy on the high edge right in front of the crowd? You can do that on the ground ya knob.

What did saint David get done for?

@mariner4life early tackle on Perenara as he was passed the ball hot on attack.

RugbyPass does something similar sometimes... Click the link to watch delayed, and it shows the current(live) or last(final) frame for a second or so.
Infuriating when that frame has the final score. -

He would never! What the ref failed to take in to consideration was David's superior anticipation skills
-
@mariner4life his excuse was he was going so fast he couldn't slow down and went into the back of TJ....
... And I guess his arms just wrapped around from the impact?

Clearly the ref was not woke enough

Pocock? Fast? Haha

What a difference TJ, BB, Savea and Laumape make, it was like a different team. Savea appears even stronger if that is possible, his drive in those legs is incredible. TJ has really matured into a very good player and it shows just how important a confident controlling 9 is. He was also smiling a lot and appears to be enjoying his rugby which is great to see.
I was also very impressed with the 15 Tiatia who was making his debut, appeared to offer plenty on attack that is for sure. No doubt would improve with game time. The poor form of the Giraffe may give him more game time.
It is great to have Laumape in the AB's mix as he offers a lot on attack, no idea why we are persisting with SBW who hasn't shown any type of form for a long time.
Also is Blackwell the shortest lock in Super Rugby?
