Congratulations to the Blues.

Angus Gardner had a poor game. He intervened far too much.
-
Harry Godfrey looks a keeper.
Rugby is in an awful state in my opinion.
A comment under the YouTube video of the game highlights read:
"5 minutes of highlights and 4 of them were Angus Gardener sending people off the field and putting his arm up for penalties".

This seems like a broadbrush comment based on one game.
Both other Super games were wonderful to watch.

Yeah my canes mates were all moaning about the amount of penalties, completely disregarding they were all fair infringements and at one stage Gardner played through 4 penalty advantages until he finally blew.

@KiwiMurph yeah, super rugby has been mostly fast and good this year.
Aussie refs may have slowed it down more.

Agree Bones. I a Canes man, but in no way was Gardiner harsh on us. The players were just doing some dumb things I think.

Didn’t watch the game. How’d Sotutu go. Just asking for a friend.

Speaking of Sotutu, how come he got red when Cam Millar got nothing on Friday night?
Watching it again, Sotutu should have only got yellow. Hard done by.

I genuinely have no fucking idea how they judge cards anymore. People try to make out there's a process being followed. If there actually is one then it's a shit process.

Has been inconsistent all weekend. IMO, none of the ones I have seen are red cards. Millar the closest, but it was such low force, with Toala driving forward, which is probably the mitigation.
Sotutu's was clumsy, but again, hardly high force/danger. Not quite sure how that wasn't just a yellow.
-
That Telea try was special. Strange that the clipped versions of it online miss the buildup.. the BB and Clarke runs
Those runs were missing from the official SR highlights too
For those that didn't see the full try, these extended highlights show it at 8:35

Razor and his cabal are behind it, they can't afford to have Sotutu dominate this year and not pick him. Even though he's easing himself into the comp, they want to enforce a few weeks where he can't play. 100% fact.

Can anybody the fatties on here explain the last scrum penalty to me? From my “never been in a scrum” position, it looked like they were heaps straighter than the previous reset and they totally folded the Blues pack - was it illegal? I couldn’t hear the comms, was the penalty for boring in?

Telea's slow eh?

Good to see the Blues defence get back to it's previous standards. It was still a bit leaky in the first half but came right in the second spell. The Canes had plenty of ball but often it was slow or behind the gainline
Only conceding 2 tries when a side like the Canes has 60% possession is a good effort
Incidentally I have the opta stats. Anything you guys want to know?

Yeah sometimes you just need a win to get things going, and who knows, maybe that was it. Still miles away from where we want to be, but a BP win in the capital might just be what we need to turn our fortunes around, and the BP is almost a reward for as you pointed out, our defensive effort.
In regards to the stats, give us anything!

People laughed at me a couple of years ago when I said someone should use AI to decide on which infringements get which punishment. The tech has advanced so much I reckon it would work. And besides it can't be any worse than the shit we have now
