All this pressure because Pulu has not taken responsibility of the exit and also guilty of throwing crap passes
This.
The exits and kicking are worse when he starts. Last 20? Off the bench? Sure. But he’s no starter. And captain, fucking ha ha.
Apparently the game plan is to try for 80m trys. Not kidding.

Manu looks handy... Shitty pass from Duffie.
It was a no look pass, why?!? A basic pass would have been more effective

Saw him do that on a couple of occassions. Think it's his passing technique not a deliberate no look.

That Ioane call is hard. (Watching replay now)
made worse by commentators wanking on about how it's a great call

On the upside - I thought Papali'i outplayed Hooper. Be nice of the commentators could learn now to pronounce his name.
Dalton and his family pronounce it Papali not Papali'i.

I wonder if the owner if the name gave up correcting them.
I guess this is what happens in intercultural relationships (assuming Dalton isn't full Samoan) -
@kiwimurph blues need to be able to play themselves to beat a NZ team...
@taniwharugby the Blues are playing one of the games of 3 halves against Northland/ Harbour/Auckland during the test window break,will confirm the date .

Apologies Kurtley, this information renders my belicosity insufficient. As you were young man, but I do think another phase or 2 and you win.

@stargazer said in Waratahs v Blues:
It's still no excuse and this is one of my biggest criticisms of Beauden. Just because you get an advantage or think that you did, doesn't mean the first option should be a cross kick. It's such a low percentage play and Beauden seems to opt for this more often than not. The better option would be to go through multiple phases and since it's so close to the try line, even if nothing comes from it you know you are guaranteed of getting the penalty anyway.

@akan004 I'm generally against the whole "got advantage so play like it's sevens" thing.
Guess I'm getting old or out of touch or something
@nta more so when so many refs will (or have) called advantage over after 2 passes, drop it on the 3rd attacking from deep you are now setting a defensive scrum...how often do we see ref call advantage over and then the team that had it make an error.

Old mate. You've always been out of touch.

@catogrande yes. Wrong school tie I expect
In any case, as @taniwharugby says: you start playing like a gimp, and get away from your systems, and you end up in the shit. That was a fucking dud play from Beale when you're 5 metres out, and it doesn't matter how good Folau is in the air: if you don't back your forwards to crack the Blues' defence from that distance, then all of them can go and get fucked.

Take the tap!
Scrum would have been the option
It's the blues. A front rower would have forgot to bind or something.

Scrum-half would have probably fed it on the wrong side.

That's unpossible but I'm sure the blues would find a way.
