Much more competitive first half than I expected. Force scrum half is a class act so far and the class of Kahui is still evident.
Biggest difference is the Reds tackle percentage. They're holding out the Force whereas the Reds score from very limited opportunity.
13 - 15 with a Reds prop on the naughty chair.
Terribly unjust YC against Red 13 for a lifting tackle.
Reds are going to play 20 mins a man down.
Force decision making at crucial points cost them any chance of a win against a deleted Reds.
Bullshit yellow. Ref and TMO should be tossed

O'Connor was impressive again tonight.
Box seat for the Wallabies
He's about a hundred years older than the other candidates, so yeah ..

Yeah, how good was O'Connor! Impressive performance.
O'Connor and Paisami were impressive. I was surprised how well Paisami stepped into first receiver. He has always been able to distribute but organising off 2nd/3rd phase ball was impressive. The shot he put on Mataele outside of the legality was Sam Tuitupou like.
