          Blues AB backs donโ€™t look like ABs tonight. Very average.

            Yeah under a fuck load of pressure

            It was a joke haha.

            Do the Crusaders have a bit of a breeze behind them? Or do they just have a team of massive punters unlike the Blues?

              Like, yeah, it's been scrappy out there, but the Crusaders are well in control so far.

              For the Blues, Sotutu has gone alright fir the most part, as has Mullan with ball in hand. Other than that, hmmm....

              Maybe just avoid the spoon this year haha.

                    The Blues look like a team desperately short of confidence. Too many players thinking of the next task instead of the one in front of them. Poor decisions e.g. pushing passes, compounded by poor skill execution as a result of making those bad decisions under pressure.

                    In fact some of them are just bad decisions putting themselves under pressure.

                    And of course when that happens, the bounce of the ball doesn't go your way.

                      Yeah looking at the draw, maybe 4-5 wins at best? It's been a grim season.

                        Lineout is understandable I guess, he's starting his first game and it's been a disrupted week, so I'll give him a break there. Looks like a player with promise though.

                          A really poor first half from the Blues.

                          To be blunt, a bit of a shambles.

                              Barrett dropped, or injured?

                                      Blues looked good in the first 10 when they put the Crusaders defence under a lot of pressure. After that, just too many mistakes. Kemara's kicking is the only reason the Blues have a chance.

                                          This goal kicking though. They donโ€™t even look likely.
