Williams gets all the credit but his partner in crime isn't too bad as well, Robbie Fruean. He is another brick ****house. The two of them had over 15kg each on the Sharks centre pairing yesterday and were heavier by 10kg+ than the Sharks loose forward, Keegan Daniel. It was only Willem Alberts, who tips the scales at 120kg (
) who could match up to the Saders physicality.
Nice sight in NZ but it’s a wee bit dangerous in Aus. Remember seeing the Reds in a Super 14 day game at Suncorp circa Feb/early March and it was so hot, the game was reduced to walking pace by the 30th minute, the players were completely gone.
Too right. Robbie Fruean looks like he could be an exceptional player. Can't believe Wellington let him slip through their fingers.
Yarp it gets cooking inside suncorp when the sun comes out, was alright on saturday just gone and will be really nice for the saders in may, but scheduling day games in feb/early march in brisbane is just stupid...the players dropped about 5-6 kegs each in this years match v the force.
This won't be forgotten
Yeah I struggled with the hurricanes game. The Bulls are no great shakes. And the Hurricanes are at home. I just think they are lost at 1st 5 at the moment. I will read the paper this week and if Cruden gets the start I may change my tip.
Two damning inditements of the Chiefs there. I rate Mike Delany quite highly, but he certainly had a shocker against the Blues. He's still better as a first-five option than Callum Bruce, mind. Delany is usually such a consistant, reliable player. Not sure where last week's performance came from. Reckon he'll step up a bit more for this match.I think the Chiefs will miss Donald (how long is he out for).
Bring back Callum Bruce
The Crowds are pretty pultry tbh, You might get 500 on a good day, but even then that mostly consists of the grades who played beforehand and their families. The Brisbane Premier GF attracted about 6000 last year at Ballymore.
