          You have to have the right ref to do it though. A few of those rucks the Blues just fell on the the tackled player straight off their feet killing the competition for the ball. Still rugby's all about playing the ref.

            Same all game, Tahs were flying missiles at times.

                So good to win this sort of game, previous seasons we would have found a way to lose it.

                  @MajorRage would have to have an extended run without injury. But he’s having a great year for sure.

                  Crushing people in the tackle.

                    Coaches need to have a think about the kicking tactics. Box kicks really?

                      It was wet, so right tactic, but poorly executed.

                          The biggest take away from this victory before everyone starts .is the poor field exits,I don’t care who the team your playing is but if you gift any team with this much field POSITION & TERRITORY because of poor tactics when exiting,of course it’s gonna bite..

                          Plenty of ticker shown tonite,but it does not have to be this hard.
                          Was great that we held onto the ball for 3 minutes at the end to run the game down.,
                          Ma Nonu outstanding,

                            What a grindie win! Blues haven’t done that for a while. They really played stats rugby for the last 3 minutes.
                            Can we please have some decent line outs sometime this year. Ours were crap, as crap as last week.

                              @Kirwan I think you have take into account the opposition. Waratahs have big guys that are good in the air. Move them around, make them pick it up off the ground.

                                  I think he’s playing well partially because he’s captain. Leadership seems to suit him

                                        We definitely looked better running at them.

                                        Lineout is a serious problem

                                          Blues are a great watch at the moment. , gees Nonu is still absolute class, you'd have to put him in the ab squad in this form.
