    Blues ill prepared to stop the high balls and rolling mauls. Not a great look.

    Ref is random and weather suits Tahs.

        We looked great in the first 20, with the ball particularly. Need to kick better in this half for sure

          @kev totally agree it’s not one of Ruru’s strengths ,his kicking from the base is awful,why you would try a box kick when Israel Folau is gonna be the guy who fields it is beyond me...in 2 minutes we have seen 2 average red zone clearances which result in either more possession ,field position and eventually a try from a lineout drive..

          @Steven-Harris hope they adjust in 2nd half - kick long or run it out. Had no ball going forward in 2nd 20 with penalties. Before that dominated contact zone and rucks.

                  @kev it’s funny when you kick away from Folau..you can catch him out of position,force him to cover some ground,he’s a big guy and gonna take some time to turn around

                      This.

                      If you have a good kicking game, you can take advantage.

                      A bad one though, and he’ll kill you.

                        Example of stupid,doing the same box kick and expecting a different result

                          Haven’t really watched the blues this year. Is the forward Ioane brother a bit fat at the moment?
