Force V Reds

[Rex Messup]

I have read several reports and comments about the game this morning and I think more could be said about another very steady and more complete performance in the 10 jersey from Sias Ebersohn.
Kicked his points and coule be relied on to relieve pressure when required. When we got to ten minutes to go with a lead he kept his head and put a couple of big ones deep into Reds territorry.
Opposition teams will need to change their defensive game plan for the Force knowing that the Force have a kicker who will punish them from anywhere inside their half. What sort of a great kick was that conversion!!!
Well done Sias....

It's rare for a back to get praise from Rex however, you are right. Sias steered the ship brilliantly when the Force entered the self destruction zone of the last 15 minutes. The side has lost so many games in the last 15 minutes that the fans almost expect it.

Sias was very good last night. He got the mix right from expansive to excellent kicking when required. He is the man for the ten jersey in my opinion. He is also a sharpshooter with the boot. The extra 10-12 points he gets that we normally miss will mean we start winning the close games. How many games have we lost by a few points in the past where we missed 2-3 easy kicks? Too many!!

I thought the same but as previously stated the TV coverage of QCpenalty was from a distance only! I asked Mr Hertryk this morning whether or not I had dreamt we won last night! our electricity went out 4 mins to go! I thought I was going to have a heart attack!

Time to change your status Nipper (actually, time for me to do the same)

Indeed it is! Or... should I wait until after the Cheetahs game so as not to taunt fate?

The best thing about the win was it was in there own right.

The reds didn't hand the force the game or play badly out of character, Cooper always passes it to the sideline and you'd expect a team of thugs to get at least one yellow, more when Horwill returns.

People underestimate the effect that pressure has on the brain in terms of decision making. The Reds may have had a bad game but a lot of that was because of the tenacity and ferociousness of the Force defence. Quade made a few whopper bad decisions.

He doesn't like the pressure and every time he is put under pressure look what happens.
He was under pressure both on and off the field with the Wallabies and cracked there.
I don't think there will ever be an automatic spot in Gold for him again.

Great highlights of Alby Mathewson from the Reds game.
