Super 15: Brumbies vs Western Force. Canberra Stadium (24/2/2012, 08:40 GMT)

I want Nalaga to do well, but so far this game is just painful to watch
 
What an awful first half !!!! Nothing positive from either team, apart maybe Mafi having a good game at full-back for the Force... Sheehan is so unnecessary and slow !
 
Best part of this so far was at half time when the PA system played the theme from Requieme for a Dream.
 
Well, I'm glad i've seen the Blues vs Crusaders game to make my day. None of these two is going to compete with Reds or Tahs if they keep playing like this I guess.
On the other hand, Brumbies has a lot of rookies. Think they can only get better the next months
 
Michael Hobbs of the Auckland Blues has been issued with an off-field yellow card for contravening Law 10.4(e) Dangerous Tackle during a Super Rugby match at the weekend.

The incident occurred in the 28th minute of the match between the Auckland Blues and Canterbury Crusaders played at Eden Park, Auckland on the 24/02/2012.

An Off-Field Yellow Card may be issued by the SANZAR Citing Commissioner for foul play incidents that are very close to, but in his opinion do not meet the Red Card threshold for Citings.

In this case the incident was acted on by the referee for the match and on further review of the match footage the Citing Commissioner deemed an Off-Field Yellow Card was appropriate
 
Is there a video of the match recap up yet? Stats make it look like a painful match to sit through.
 
Any video footage of this game is best to be treated like the tape in the movie The Ring or The Well or whatever it is called.
 
Disappointed with that. Handling is costing us still and the kicking isn't good enough yet. We have bulk injuries in the backline, but even when they come back the whole team needs to improve as well.

Good to see the Brumbies are going to be competitive this year I guess.

I'm not sure if beating a woeful Force side by missing less kicks than them means they're going to be competitive. It was a pretty awful game from two tame sides.

Have to agree. Hate to say it, but they highlight of the game was probably the refs final whistle ;)
 
Didn't see the game but I was following on ESPN Scrum. I thought the Force were going to take this game but this has set the team up for another long hard and ultimately disappointing season. :(

(Very annoying when all my friends are glory hunting Reds and Crusaders "Supporters")

Or you or are you not the person when deciding what football team to support asked who's top of the Premiership and now are a Man City fan?

I follow the Red's more than support them and I started following them before last season watching them for their style mainly based around Cooper. Didn't miss on of their games while I've had sky not exactly glory hunting when you get up 430 in the morning.

Fair enough, but I know about three Reds "Supporters" and a couple Crusaders "Fans", you're not the only person I know who follows S15. Also saying you started supporting them in 2010 doesn't help the Glory Hunting tag.

As I said I don't support them. I only support LEINSTER and IRELAND​.
