And passive tackles. The amount of post contact metres the blues made was ridiculous, as well as the number of times we were driven back post contact. It was a real men vs boys type game

Fully agree on both points
We honestly saw this coming months before the season started. Almost everyone identified concerns in our squad at prop and outside backs. Yes, we've been unlucky with injuries, but most of us regular...
That's a huge loss. He's been our best outside back this year, and we don't have any depth either. He likely would've been in the conversation for a potential wallabies gig as well
Not sure about going back to a 6:2 bench split, when the only backline reserve covering positions 10 to 15 is a debutant. Not great to see another prop injury as well - hopefully not serious or long...
Did he? I can't say I noticed him too much at the game, he's not listed at all on Tazz's attacking stats list is relatively low down on the defensive stats list too. Certainly wasn't a bad...
Any news on Rodda's recovery? Was kind of hoping he'd be back around now...
Liking the look of that side. White has been going well, but good to give IFL a go starting and have White on the pitch later on the game to provide some leadership.
Concerning that Moli still isn't...
Wow, didn't see that coming! Great to finally game some clarity on what happened to one of our best players and possibly explains why we weren't getting any injury updates for any players last...
Clear high shot on Kuenzle when we were exiting our 22 and Nic White taken out off the ball earlier in the game. Both should've had TMO interjection.
Our discipline was atrocious early in the...
We've got serious problems with speed out wide. Potter and Tiatia aren't all that fast unfortunately and don't appear to be the best defensively. I fear Corey Toole might have a field day on Saturday
I expect Williams will play the full 80 minutes this week. Was likely given a breather last week since it was his first week back from concussion protocols.
Wells had a somewhat better game last...
REBELS (1-15): Matt Gibbon, Alex Mafi, Taniela Tupou, Josh Canham, Lukhan Salakaia-Loto, Josh Kemeny, Brad Wilkin, Rob Leota (c), James Tuttle, Carter Gordon, Filipo Daugunu, David Feliuai, Matt...
What's going on with Atu Moli - not even in the 23 again, but surely should be ahead of Hancock?
Somewhat surprised we've brought Roxon in - thought we might have got Bo Abra back or given Rebolo a...
A few surprises on the team list.
Very surprised to see Rodda straight back into the 15, and hope he hasn't been rushed back due to injuries since an article in the last week or so was saying he was...
I doubt / very much hope that we don't rush Rodda back early. Expect we'll go with the same lock combination as the Brumbies trial - Faifua, Franklin and Anstee covering on the bench. Not ideal, but...
Huge news! Let's hope all goes to plan
Damn it! Looks like Wells is our captain again. I really do not understand it at all. At 6, Anstee and Williams are better options and should be in the 15 above him. At 8, Harris, Anstee and Williams...
I agree 15 would be the best fit for Reesjan with our current squad.
I think he's better suited to that position than Burey & Donaldson, as he's a better runner than both, has the physical...
That seems rather uncalled for and I'd say well off the mark.
Seemed like he's matured a lot and provided nothing but a positive influence in the wallabies under Rennie's tenure, along with...
You would think the Force would release some sort of statement advising of this, listing his achievements, thanking him for his service and stating how they're supporting him going forward. Currently...
I strongly disagree. I could see the team building well under Rennie, with discipline and injuries the main problems. We were only losing by small margins to Ireland and France away. Bring in Cooper...
Burgs, while Eddie's player selections have been a major issue, the biggest problem is Eddie's game plan and coaching structures. I believe his low possession high kicking plan is fundamentally...
Yeah, Donaldson played well although often guilty of kicking the ball away a bit too much. White was rather horrendous though, again for kicking away far too much ball. IFL should be starting for the...
Surprised Amone isn't traveling. A bit of a worry considering I don't think he's been confirmed for next year either
