    Man what a mix of a half, terrible hands and defence mixed in with some really good rugby. So inconsistent.

    Injuries are going to really affect the second half, Plummer and Nock were looking great.

      Take your hands off 7, just penalise Savea..!,good ole Bryant only picks and chooses the blues have dominant scrum regardless of wether he’s asking for it to be cleared..this where an official has a feel on what’s about to happen
      For all that ,it’s not his fault the Blues are familiar territory

        On the plus side, those two for next year have to be certain locks for starting positions.

              We can win this game, like I thought at the beginning it’s the little things letting us down. Three of those drops were terrible, almost unforced.

              Instead, it’ll probably blow out to a 15 point loss

                        We need to pressure the ref, get into his ear. Letting the Canes off the hook.

                          Thats a really low percentage option to go for the rolling maul after the hooter. Any sort of held up etc = halftime.

                          Sums up Blues. Need more rugby nous!

                                  Lots of endeavour by the Blues, but one handling mistake kills all that. One missed tackle does as well!

                                  Lack of concentration (catch the frigging ball and hold onto it) and lack of nous (construct a try)!

                                      @Kirwan it was beautiful, right in front of the ref and he didn't notice. Like all the not straight line is (both sides) being missed, that pass from the grind being forward, etc. Referring standard is definitely on the drop, I guess all the directives when they are looking out for other things, they miss the basics?

                                          Patrick’s pass? That wasn’t forward, agree with the rest.
