How good are the reds?

They should have won that game. If it wasn't for a Cooper brainfart they would have won by 1 point. Still, the Horrorcanes played pretty f**king well in that first half. Cruden may have sucked with the boot but gee he played a good running and passing game.

:lol: !! what did i tell you clowns...

The Reds are position is deceiving because they haven't played against any of the strong NZ sides yet.

beaten by the worst NZ side... :lol:

A reds team missing a lot of their best players.

as opposed to a Hurricanes team who were missing the likes of Piri Weepu, Ma'a Nonu, Conrad Smith & Corey Jane. :lol:

sorry nimrod... those 4 players are better than the entire reds side... :lol:

Funny how the Hurricanes team with those 'awesome' players in it plays worse than the team that played on the weekend.

The Canes look awesome on paper but they never deliver. Nonu will be lucky if he makes the test team this year. He can't pass and you need that with an inside centre.

The nimrods just keep coming...

Its not funny if your a Reds fan... :lol:

as opposed to the Reds? The Hurricanes have delivered far more than the Reds have.

Nonu will be lucky if he makes the test team this year. He can't pass and you need that with an inside centre.

Seriously dude... do you even read the what you type?? it would almost make more sense if a monkey had diarrhea on your keyboard.

Yeah... the best inside centre in world rugby for the past 4 years has suddenly forgotten how to pass... :roll:

Your right about one thing though...Nonu certainly has a fight on his hands to keep his All Black jersey... But he would still walk into the Wallabies. Infact, he would be the leader of that backline.

Tonight they play the Bloos who leak as many tries in as they score. Should be a cracking game. Perfect conditions too.

Blues will win this in a canter.

Highlanders still suck, they've only beaten one top 6 team they wont be there come finals time. Blues, Reds, Stormers, Crusaders, Sharks, Waratahs/Bulls.

losing Ice will probably cause a few problems... mainly moving Jarred Payne out of center.

but i would still be VERY disappointed if we lost to a bunch of hacks like the Reds.

Watch out for the Taniwha boys... Ranger, Payne & Munroe to carve up!!

LOL it's been the complete opposite from what you have said in the last couple of games. I see you're trying to play a bit of reverse psychology too ;-).

27-14 to the hacky Reds at half time. They were up 24-0 but leaked two really soft tries.

The Blues will romp this game home.

:(

f**k...what a game.

Ranger looks the goods. He should be wearing a black jersey later this year.

Was it just me or was the ref shithouse or what? FMD pretty much every reds scrum was a a penalty to the blues. And he called play on when Stephen Brett was offside, off his feet and grabbed at the ball in the ruck wtf was that about?

It was Kaplan. It is to be expected.

The Blues are a class side and were missing some players, as were the Reds. Well done for them coming back at the Reds. Most other teams would have put up the white flag. The Reds front row were great in the loose and Robinson is turning into a great player. Both the Reds and Blues seem, to me, to be struggling to play at the same intensity for the whole 80. There are some major lapses for both teams that let in tries.

A good game though.

The reds wont win it this year... they REALLY are pretenders, to be 24 nil up and come that close to losing.... at home... it was a good game tho.

Oh and on Ranger... good game????? he dropped so much ball and gave away penalties... i cant understand how someone so talented is so damn stupid... i hope he goes nowhere near the All Blacks this year.
