    He's with the Chiefs? Had completely missed that. Wellington lad.

      Manu got close to the posts. Try bombed a couple of passes later

      Penalty, we go for a scrum, don’t quit make it over. Repeat that sentence 3 times.

      Penalty try on another scrum

      21-19 Chiefs

          Had some runs nothing spectacular. Think he subbed off before HT

          He’s as wide as he is tall

                    Blues scrum getting on top. Tighthead.

                      Games on into real stale mate,the Blues forwards have had the dominant scrum,but chiefs backline are looking the more dangerous unit,Manu looks the Blues best..love the work of Matich massive engine

                        Blues got the ball to the outsides for the first time in a while. Someone scored down the right flank. Couldn’t spot the number .. maybe Hyland again?

                        Scoreboard says 26-19 Blues now

                        Think I had it wrong earlier. Oops

                              All over. Chiefs almost scored in the corner in the last play

                                  The starting tight 5 in the Highlanderd game Hodgman, Parsons, Tuungafasi, Scrafton, Tuioti should be the Blues Starters. Tana can't afford to tinker around with his starting pack, they played well Pauliasi Manu needs to come off the bench. I like Pat T off the bench for impact. Whatever happens at half time the Tana and his Coaches need to change the script for two in a row the boys come out flat. The Team is good enough, it is not about mindset it is all about strategy.

                                      @kiwimurph so Ruru to start, Nock to watch off the bench, but based on the way Tana selects, I expect Nock to get the nod.

                                        Just saw on Instagram that the Blues were sitting in a hot plane somewhere and were melting without airco for (at least) two hours before taking off.

                                          It’s not his fault. There’s an external excuse for Tana’s selections

                                          Sorry I mean T’s selections (that what the cool kids call him)
