    Gatland looking good.

    Preston and Collins looking out of their depth.

            FABRT in.

            Some decent play by both teams so far, for round 1.

              possibly a wee bit fortuitous, but good patience

                That was sweet by the Blues.

                Poor kick by Lima. Not deep enough.

                    Some brutal defence, but also some average defence by both teams

                            slow Collins looked pretty quick coming across in defence there

                              I know it’s game one (of the real stuff that is) but it is nigh on impossible to get a TO at the ruck under these laws.

                                  That's where Pulu being greedy might've paid off. It looked like he had a chance there.

                                    The Blues got one by having more numbers there earlier, but so far it seems like jackalling over will be super rare unless the player is totally isolated.

                                        Too easy. Aaron Smith not communicating with his openside, still has his head in the scrum.

                                          Fun 40 minutes.

                                          Bit stupid by the Landers not getting rid of that.

                                          Really missed Rugby.

                                          Blues look pretty good - they’ve been able to get the ball in the hands of their dangerous players. Defense has been simultaneously good, and then terrible.

                                          But for the first game of the season, the quality is pretty good.
