Match report vs. Smuts

It was possibly the best conditions ever witnessed on the Green Mile last night, dry with no wind, one would have though condusive to running rugby, Cobras rugby. However, this was not the case. Not much can be said about the Cobras performance last night, although we scored 7 unanswered tries, there was not much to write home about. The crowd was silent and so were the players, there was no urgency or flair, it was flat out there. We knew it would be an easy game but that does not mean we shouldn't go out firing, playing aggressive hard rugby. We played with them as if they were school kids, with there not even being one noticeable big tackle going in, to be honest it was boring stuff with a very stop start game.

The Cobras, and forwards especially, have not been playing the new laws right, these are the types of things we going to have to get waxed if we even want to think about getting close to a semi-final spot. There was no urgency or aggression. Apart from flying winger Warren Kelly, there was nothing special about the Cobras performance last night. However, it is a good thing that we can play below average rugby but still score 7 tries, our defence was the only positive that came out of the game. If we had come out firing from the kick off we could easily have put 70 points on a very average Smuts side. Let's put this performance behind us and look to our next fixture in 2 weeks time, which will be the biggest game in our pool. So think about, shake it off and start gettin amped for our next game. Final score...Cobras 43 Smuts 0

Oh so brave...
