@nta What is the injury status of Cridge? I did read something about a possible fracture.
The commentator on Friday night reported that Cridge "heard a crack" when he went down, but no more info than "nursing an ankle injury" since. He's not available this weekend.
And that means our scrum isn't going to be anywhere near as good.
I didn’t notice Harrison is covering halfback
@duluth "... IF Gordon has to come off for some reason" being the missing part of that headline, of course.
The guys sitting on the Tahs bench for 9 will not get a lot of minutes this year unless we're thrashing someone. Which is a shame in a way because Jack Grant has quick delivery and is quick to rucks.
Brumbies already going the niggle with Swain pulling players through the back of the Tahs ruck.
Their ball speed is good and that try was deserved.
@antipodean said in Brumbies v Waratahs:
Nice exit kick Donaldson.
Carrying on from where he left off last game.
Harrison on the bench, but he's also the reserve half, so ....
Try blown at 04:50
Kick taken at 06:19
Why do we bother with the pretense of keeping time for these things?
@antipodean said in Brumbies v Waratahs:
How does this clown of a ref not see Slipper's arse pointing at him?
Berry doesn't have the greatest grasp of scrums.
I'm about 4 minutes behind, but Alaalatoa tried and offload and the chasing Brumbies player knocked it on. WTF?
Brumbies get a sniff of momentum and score another try. Tahs aren't going to do this scoring in 3s.
Donaldson pissed away the best break we have in the game of course.
@duluth said in Brumbies v Waratahs:
Soft
We left Swain tear our maul to pieces which caused the turnover.
@antipodean said in Brumbies v Waratahs:
This is a hard watch.
Fucking shit call by the AR on Donaldson. Didn't change his line an inch - Leaguiebrain pushes him in the back and fakes offence.
