Super 12 (2 Viewers)

[Huratio]

i'm suprised that my union thread i made like last year is somewhere near the bottom... a revival..

not even half way into the season.. and the warratahs are ahead. it may be the year that NSW take the super12..

mat rogers and justin harrison back for this weekend.!

 

[copious]

was a good win by the crusaders, they had that extra x-factor. i see this week as a huge challenge for the waratahs, the umanga lead hurricanes are finally hitting form after a lean couple of years languishing in the mid table during the lomu era.

Last week we needed more possession against the Crusaders.

As least Hewats playing and kicking well for us. I wanna know what happens when Rogers comes back, where does Hewat go? Surely you can't start him on the bench.

 

[mr_speedy]

hewat goes back to the wing, and shepard goes back to the bench....

 

[mr_speedy]

oh no maybe winston mafi goes back to the bench, and shepard will have to be dropped.

 

[cappen]

crusaders were lucky, there were heaps of offisdes not called against them, and that actually makes me fume, but with rodgers and garrison back the Tahs have a shitload more venom now

 

[Huratio]

any punters on the waratahs and brumbies game this weekend?

my bet: waratahs win by less than 7 points.

 

[RiCe_GrOwEr]

Good bet Huratio. The Brumbies had shitload of chances to score in the last 20 mins. The Tahs defence held up pretty good.

The ref was shocking. How about Grey's high shot? The double falcon was a special. Gerrard copped a good one from the ball.

 

[ChrisE]

not a pretty game at all hey but the tahs got the points and thats all that matters. i think both teams were lucky they were versing each other and not the crusaders or the hurricanes last night because really either team played great rugby.

 

[richz]

go the tahs, see mckays try it was wonderful

 

[RiCe_GrOwEr]

Gregan's out for the season. Whittaker to replace him for the Wallabies?

 

[0Jade0]

I cannot believe that NSW beat the Brumbies... Now Gregan's out....

 

[richz]

yeah whittikar will be scrum half and mackay fly half, if berny isnt injured

 

[ChrisE]

gregan is out for 4-6 weeks isnt he? broken leg isnt exactly a season ending injury, only s12 season ending. he will be back for the samoa test and if the brumbies make the final, he may be back then.

 

[cappen]

yea Tahssssssssssss...there was too much fuckin kickin in th game not enough backline power used by the tahs, that have an amazing backline, but underused....greeeeegs will b back for the tests

lyons had his nose broken twice in the game, thats golden

 

[Huratio]

any punters on the waratahs and brumbies game this weekend?

my bet: waratahs win by less than 7 points.

yes... i was spot on.
ChrisE: yep i also heard that gregan was out for 4-6 weeks. he's probably going to get into the starting side.. but would steve larkham be ready for a comeback by then as well?

 

[RiCe_GrOwEr]

Hewat needs to replace Rogers goal kicking.

I see the Knights signed Milton Thaiday. Obviously it's a alcohol based contract.

 

[angelduck]

everything with the knights is alcohol-based

Wots wrong with Roger's goal kicking? And why isnt super-12 on normal tv - or is it and i have just not been reading my program well.....

 

[RiCe_GrOwEr]

I can't remeber the last time Super 12's was on free to air.

I've only ever watched it on Foxtel.

What's Roger's kicking % now? 49%? Roger's isn't a bad kicker, but Hewat's in better form.

 

[cappen]

rogers needs to work on his "gap hitting"...he aint caused as much trouble since he's come back...give hewat the kicking cause hes slottin that shit form everywhere
