"Oh no! They've just got to stop doing it when the hit man's lurking," commentator Sean Maloney said on Nine and Stan Sport.<\/p>\n
"Oh boy. Oh no, not again. The hit man does not miss, he misses never. Nic White wasn't great on the other side of it."<\/p>\n
Co-commentator Andrew Mehrtens, not known for his tackling prowess, winced as he watched the replays roll.<\/p>\n

That's fire in the house stuff, isn't it? That's stop, drop and roll \u2013 rolling in pain."<\/p>\n Thorn lavished praise on the Wallabies centre in his post-match interview with Michael Atkinson.<\/p>\n "Hunter by name, hunter by nature," Thorn said.<\/p>\n "When I played, you had hit men out there and everyone in different teams know who they are. So there's a psychological thing there, you know it could be coming.<\/p>\n "That's right up my alley."<\/p>\n Again the Reds win was marked by character, rather than being clinical, as they survived a red card to flanker Tuaina Tualima and a yellow to prop Taniela Tupou.<\/p>\n The Brumbies also had two players sinbinned for contentious incidents.<\/p>\n Flanker Rob Valetini was marched by referee Angus Gardner for contact with a falling Tate McDermott that commentator Tim Horan felt warranted a penalty only.<\/p>\n The commentary team also took issue with Cam Clark's yellow card for a "deliberate" knockdown after he scored the game's first try on his Brumbies debut.<\/p>\n Fifteen Brumbies players and eight Reds will now join the Wallabies camp on the Gold Coast from Sunday-Tuesday.<\/p>\n The Reds have the bye next week while the Brumbies will return to Suncorp Stadium to play the Fijian Drua.<\/p>\n For a daily dose of the best of the breaking news and exclusive content from Wide World of Sports, subscribe to our newsletter by<\/em><\/strong> clicking here!<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<\/p>\n
