Blues v Sharks

[Stargazer]

And now one for Moala.

Sharks will win; but Blues have scored the most tries.

[Crazy Horse]

@stargazer yay a moral victory!

[Tim]

Something is very wrong when you score 40 at home at get thrashed.

[Stargazer]

@tim Very, very shit defence! From both teams.

[Stargazer]

Why are they still playing? The Blues can't get a bonus point if they score. The Sharks can't lose.

[Stargazer]

And boom, the Sharks score and put over 60 points on the board.

[Stargazer]

Going to the TMO ....

[Unite]

Disgrace.

Well done Sharks.

[Tim]

Bye bye Tana.

My god, Blues are a rabble. They look worse after a two week break, after playing like lepers last time out, and supposedly getting the ‘think about your play talk’, one assumes. Don’t think it has sunk in.

Either they are uncoached or uncoachable.

[Stargazer]

That was a great try. Another Sharks nail in the Blues coffin.

Full time: Blues 40 - 63 Sharks

We're the sharks good or blues just so awful they were made to look good?

Blues were shite but Sharks look to have some very talented players - bodes well for Boks rugby.

Think the sharks will get a bit of a a surprise next week...

[Stargazer]

I don't think the Sharks were that good. We'll find out next week when they play the Canes, but I expect the Canes to put them back in their place. After all, the Rebels beat the Sharks 46 - 14 last week!

So the blues are a bunch of individuals, is it the coaches job to make that into a team? Will the blues actually get a decent coach for next year,with proper experience and winning credentials. Bad time to look, in a rwc year

[Tim]

@machpants Blues played without much structure or game plan, and relied on individual performances to score.

Defensive line not organised, players not in the right place to contest the ruck and slow ball, some poor individual tackles, and a dud seven for most of the game.

[Bones]

Tana looks like he can see the writing on the wall, looks gutted.

I find it very hard to pin this on the coach after watching that absolutely shocking performance from the players. Shocking defence and just sheer stupidity. It's just so puzzling to try and figure out what the players are thinking with half of the blues game.

[Bones]

Eddie Jones on a 2 year contract then Gatland or Schmidt. Do it.

Exactly, coaches job the game plan and structure, Tana in above his head technically I guess
