Jaguares vs Blues

Interesting comment from Parsons:
"The mindset for us is exactly that; it's all about us," veteran hooker James Parsons said. "We maybe looked at the Sharks too deeply and got away from our game. As [coach] Tana [Umaga] alluded to, it's on us to be confident and stick to our game plan."
That would explain (aside from inexperience) why the team looked nervous and failed to execute a gameplan in the 1st half.

Strange feeling going into this game. I'm still shocked with Michael Tamoaieta's passing tbh to the point where I don't really seem to care about tomorrow's result.
-
@Duluth great start from Black..on point
-
Great back from Nanai,but no attempt to look for support..it’s these little bits in his game that frustrate the living daylights out of me..on saying that he’s better option than Collins
-
Straight miss from Nonu.
-
The Blues have held up the Jags on a few occasions and this joke of a ref keeps on calling it a tackle.
@akan004 totally agree,will be interesting to see what sort of consistency we get from this guy.
-
Poor box kick from Pulu..and wtf was Nanai thinking with an absolute nothing kick under advantage
-
Poor organisation on attack.this is where you need Akira at pace in channels I or 2..not Parsons..
-
@Nepia Brumbieball without the maul.

If the tackled player is held up and one of his team-mates joins in the tackle - then surely at that moment it becomes a maul and if the ref hasn't called for the tackler to release, then at that point it should be too late - the maul is formed.

The organisation from that defensive area was nothing short of a disgrace ,for Talea to end with a clearing kick looked like something I would do in my backyard just makes you shake your head..unfortunately all this from a dumb Papali’i late tackle on halfway..all this against a 14 man outfit ..!

The good - some of the short passing close to the ruck. The strike runners are looking dangerous.
The bad - too many loose carries, some aimless/poor kicking from hand, people being driven into touch - soft turnovers.
The worst - no sign yet of an effective lineout drive.

Yes but affirmative action referee.
