    Good work - saw the mismatch and took advantage. If he runs a bit and slows the defense, that Blues backline will get more and more dangerous.

    Cracking pass from Hoffman there too.

    Excellent pass from Hodgman.

      No one going to comment on that nice piece of play from Collins at the end there? A nice step and offload that put the Landers under pressure at the next phases leading to a penalty.

        Duffie's try was a brilliant interchange, and so early in the season too - awesome. Really fun game to watch so far.

            I think Collins has played well. Glenn Preston was terrible but other than that everyone has gone ok. Pulu's inaccurate passing continues to cost us.

              Gatland is running more than most Blues supporters expected he would (or could).

                Really? I missed the first 20 but has his passing actually lost points?
                I think he has shown good leadership. Has been very focussed and determined. That will filter through. Notice when they kicked for the corner he allowed a little discussion, heard the reasoning but then strongly stepped in and pointed to the touch line. Non nonsense stuff that the Blues need.

                      Squire might be in trouble...

                                It's the kind of dumb shit that makes me nervous when he's in black. Sure, not that much in it, but completely bloody unnecessary.

                                    Should have been a penalty advantage to the Blues, Landers player made no attempt to catch that.

                                        Blues forwards look awesome. Nice work from their Tight 5, hopefully the bench continues the momentum.
