Bledisloe I

[Higgins]

Something like 10000 referees that are available to referee matches and we get this clown (along with those two frog ones)

[canefan]

Fucking bullshit from all the officials. If it was a closer game they would have mattered, just like against the lions

Why do we look so shit all of a sudden. I don't get it.

Drop off in intensity and a few silly mistakes. Used to happen a lot to the great Blues team in the 90s.

[Tim]

These reserves are a big step down.

The only positive , coaches won't be happy , be no complacency going into next week

Can happen when you're up 50 odd to sweet f.a., the mind subconsciously switches off.

Subconsciously?

These guys physically left for the pub half an hour ago.

Never used to be, Flapanara has been a bit average for a start.

ABs bench needs work - a lot of average and Harris and ALB were particularly poor I thought.

[antipodean]

The replacements for that last 30 mins were dreadful

[Mokey]

Report card:

1st 50 mins: perfection.
last 30 mins: absolute dire fucking shit.

Reserves have been terrible, AB's went off the boil completely. Shag would have been pretty chuffed at halftime, but what do you say to that.

[jegga]

Match summary. Equals parts " fuck yeah" and " meh"

Lots to work on .

[kev]

@Tim shit.

[chimoaus]

Why do I feel dirty and we just put 50 on the Wallabies.

Bring back Jordie, Coles bench problem partly solved. 3rd string not up to it

[Stargazer]

Best forward: Squire
Best back: Crotty

[ACT Crusader]

Well done ABs. Put the game away early.

Aaron Smith my MOTM. His clearance and direction of the play was superb.

Lacked patience in the second half. A few players thought they could score off first phase....

[akan004]

Perhaps there was an order from Shag to do that....to keep clown in the job.

Yeah but fuck, they switched right off. A lot of work to do to ensure the execution remains when the reserves come on. A big weakness currently.

Bang on, some of them had the self discipline of a six month old Labrador puppy.

Foley's pass in the Folau try was so far forward it drifted into our line!
