Rebels did OK in the 2nd half last week. They have a strong squad. Maybe slight favourites for this given how bad QLD were.

Brookvale Oval looks like a GAA ground from the '90s.
Fans sitting on grassy embankments in pissing rain swigging cans.

Much better setting for club / regional rugby than an 90% empty 60,000 seater stadium. I speak from experience as an Edinburgh fan used to watching games in Murrayfield with a crowd of 4000.

Basics are horrendous. Shouldn't be so adventurous, play wet weather rugby. It is the percentage/smart rugby for the conditions.

Yeah, but the Reds looked really dangerous then with some enterprising play.

Aussies always struggle in the rain. I base this on Scotland beating them in 2009 and 2012.

Definitely.
Good choice of venue, pity the game is so poor.

Not as dire a game as some are suggesting. Reasonably entertaining when you don't have a dog in the fight.
On a sunny day, this would be a really fun match to watch.

Im impressed with the hardness of the hits by the young Rebels forwards. Fraser has been good for Reds. I can see a decent pack for the Wobs coming through.
