April 27th, 2012 · No Comments

Digby Ioane only took 60 seconds to celebrate his 50th game with a try in the Reds defeat of the Blues in Auckland tonight. Ioane was heavily marked by the Blues centre pairing of Nonu and Ranger. And surely he’ll feel Nonu’s tackles tomorrow. The big Blues enforcer didn’t […]

Anthony Faingaa is back! I’ve been hearing the rumours for days but I wasn’t getting my hopes up until I saw his name on an official team list. Well the QRU media release just hit my inbox and there he is at 22. The Starch in the Reds defencive […]

Review: Reds V. Brumbies A Hoodoo Broken

April 6th, 2012 · No Comments

Lee Coan wrote this article.
The Reds defeated the Brumbies 20-13 in a tight hard fought game. But, importantly for the Reds, there was a return of commitment from the Reds. Commitment to defence, a commitment to contest at ruck and lineout time, commitment to the game plan and a commitment to retain possession. […]

Super Rugby Round 3 Review

March 8th, 2011 · No Comments

MrTimms wrote this article.
Round 3 of the 2011 Super Rugby season was a tough one for Australian Rugby fans. OK, fine, the Reds won. But it was at the expense of the Brumbies and the game was hardly one to showcase all that is great about rugby. Meanwhile… the Tahs? Smashed. Rebels? Smashed. […]

Big Jerry gets owned

February 21st, 2008 · No Comments

Lee Calvert wrote this article. Here’s the clip of Beau Robinson making Jerry Collins his bitch during the weekend’s Waratahs vs Hurricanes game. As it’s often Big Jerry taking prison wives, it’s nice to see a bit of payback. Suffice to say that he didn’t play much more of a role for the rest […]
