Blues v Force

[ACT Crusader]

@Steven-Harris said in Blues v Force:

Blues scrum under so much pressure they win a penalty

With the tightheard boring in on the angle mind you….

[antipodean]

And another useless kick from Beauden, complete with a shit line defence.

[ACT Crusader]

Tizano is basically playing like a 2nd 5

[ACT Crusader]

Force look pretty good in counter and broken play, but they have nothing in phase play.

Does he possess an invisibility cloak for kicking? How on earth does he get away with the majority of his kicks resulting in massive gains for the opposition, with no team mate or coach raising the issue?

They're also very good at creating havoc at the ruck.

Very compact and organised.

Proctor would have put Evans in there

[Bones]

The fuck was that from Evans.

I'm well on board the NZ rugby nous is dead train.

12-7 at the half.

Flattering the Blues

[African Monkey]

Blues up but have a bit of work to do. Force probably had the better of the play.

I wonder if Leon MacDonald has pointed out a few defensive weaknesses in the Blues.

The coaching rejects of Mcdonald and Donnelly are showing they can produce results with a mismatched and scrappy squad... Maybe the Highlanders and Blues players were just stupid.

Or Vern Cotter ain't that great.
