Walsh can’t see through that beard, it was knocked on right in front of him
Try Reds…. Slipper
After saying that, they score.
Try given, they get something at last, so Horwell is redeemed, just – should have been a knock on earlier though, so very lucky
Lemoenetyd
Farce 21 / 5 Reds
If Farce lose to this Rabble, they will have to take a good, hard look at themselves, and perhaps offer their spot up to the Kings!!!!!! Surely they can’t fluff this one? It’s theirs for the taking. All they have to do is turn up for the second half
66 @ Just For Kicks:
Last week the Reds were simply terrible in the 2Nd Half, blown to bits by the Bulls in the 2Nd Half.
7 Tries against them in that 2Nd Half…
Can they stand up or will the Farce slaughter them as well?
67@ grootPIENKsmile:Don’t think I’ve ever seen a team regress as fast as the Reds. 5 teams really taking their toll on the Aussie conference, I fear. too greedy.
Reds body language looking terrible in their change rooms…
T.V. link lost, will try to update from twitter if the score changes
@ Just For Kicks:
couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of administrators
2Nd Half On…
Link back again, no change in score
Force get a try from a charge down, incredible
Tryyyyyyyy Ben Seymour…. for the Farce
Charged down kick… scooped up by Sheehan
Converted!
Farce 28 / 5 Reds
28-5 Force after the Harvet conversion. The Reds woes continue
71@ The_Young_Turk:Hahaha
Reds on the charge now
With no quality outside Genia and him running sideways before he passes, gives him no chance to put a quality runner into space and over the advantage line.
Watch him, he does not pass immediately, he shuffles at least a few steps before passing, mostly!
Reds being turned around and bent over for the second week in a row. Methinks they are starting to like this position…
How crap do you have to be to be losing to the farce right now – it really does expose you weaknesses!!!!!!!
Farce steal the Reds lineout
Humphries in for the Reds
Van Humphries scores for the Reds
Farce 28 / 12 Reds
16 Points deficit still
Can the Reds claw their way back or have the Farce just relaxed a bit too soon and will resume the pomping soon.
28-12 as conversion is slotted
Reds look like they’e stepped up a gear in the second half
Penalty reds, they take a quick tap…
