This is the worst our defence has looked all season, we’ve been good at this aspect this year.

Perhaps it is trhe speed and skill of thje Hurricanes players exposing something other teams have not able to manage to do?

I think it has more to do with turnover ball.

Kirwan

How about you give us the scrum penalty when they stand up ref?

Duluth

Officials missed an off the ball cheap shot on on Nonu

Agree, and let the scrums go without telling them to use it so quickly

Gah sucks that Plummer and Nock are off.

They both were great.

Higgins

Why is it only a penalty when the non throwing in team lifts a jumper in the lineout before the ball is thrown in?

Despite their shit defence , blues looked good stringing phases together , be interesting to see if that continues with the changes in the halves ,

Well there you go

Kirwan

Savea puts hands in a ruck right in front of the ref, who asks him nicely to stop. FFS.

Stargazer

Goodhue off for a HIA

How can Pulu possess such a shit pass? It's literally his position's primary skill set.

African Monkey

@KiwiMurph I always cringe when Pulu comes on.

@Kirwan exactly, penalise him.

Has there been a Blues match thread this year when there hasn't been a huge amount of whinging about the ref.

Chris B.

Jesus wept - does anyone ever score with a throw to the front of the lineout. Got to be the lowest percentage option of many available!

Yes, plenty. But if they make mistakes, it can get commented on in a discussion forum

Yes cos the Crusaders-Sharks thread last week there was no mention of the ref....

kev

@Kirwan plus not straight ffs

Toddy

@KiwiMurph totally agree. A few posters embarrassed themselves on that thread.
