    Don't think I've seen us drop the ball that much before.

    Please drop Barrett. Worst performance from him since Hamilton 2023.

    If it wasn't clear for all to see (excluding AB selectors) it has to be now.... BB is a stone cold liability

          Congrats Landers. By far the better team.

          I don't see the Blues turning this around - they are cooked

          Yeah......it's all of a sudden looking like a pretty weak bunch of NZ teams all of a sudden excluding the Chiefs.

          The 2nd best NZ team is up for grabs, could well be the Landers from what we've seen.

                      In fairness, the Crusaders and Canes don't look much chop either.

                          Your team lost against 13, your forwards were done, and you blaming Barrett?? By the powers I thought Blues pack were no good, the midfield were non existant in attack. The whole bloody lot were not very good!

                              Ioane 15 points in fantasy. I picked him to try and prove that I wasn't biased. I'll stick with my bias

                                    Constantly handing the ball back to Fin Hurley wasn't the smartest thing to do. Our forwards were buggered because of it. Like yeah, we fell apart collectively, but Barrett was a massive reason why.
