Not difficult for tippers this week.

Rebels doing well so far. Ahead 6-0 and have had plenty of possession

[Duluth]

Petaia has plenty of flaws but his balance and stepping is class

[Yeetyaah]

Fuck what a boring game

Hasn't been boring. Plenty of ball in play - both teams looking to counter attack.

[NTA]

26C and 75% humidity. Fuck playing in that

[antipodean]

The game is a joke when ref'd like that. Penalised because someone jumps into you. WTF are you supposed to do, let them jump past the defensive line and carry on?

I had no idea who you'd decided was guaranteed to take this so kept quiet, but with 20 to go this is extremely tight. Very much either team's for the taking.

[NTA]

Reds to take this with a try under the posts after the bell

[NTA]

Oh jeez. Should have rolled.

Great defence tackle

[NTA]

Rebels defence falls asleep.

Reds about to go back to 15

[NTA]

I'll drink to that.

[NTA]

Good tension.

Summer games in Brisbane fucking suck tho.

[KiwiMurph]

That was a good game.
