    The Blues coaches are just dumb. Halfback is their biggest problem, yet Ruru plays the whole game. Clearly should've been subbed along time ago

      A very necessary turnover from Tu'ungafasi; stopping the Bulls' driving maul.

          @sparky He might not have attempted to make a tackle at all. :fishing_pole:

          I really rate Sotutu. Just a young pup needing to work on his tackling technique.

          Ditto. Sotutu will be some player.

            Carrol making great metres. Ruru loses the ball forward, but Bulls have given away a penalty. Should be kickable.

                  @Rebound I'd need to see it again, but his arm looked close to the Bulls' player's neck. Sotutu has a bit of a habit of making that mistake, so it wouldn't surprise me if it was the case. The ref was in a better position to see it, than we could with that camera angle.

                        @Stargazer it wasn't a Aussie ref. It was a SA ref again and making up shit, like the previous game. Sotutu's tackle gets made every minute. He just ministered the player and the ref found a reason to give a yellow

                          @African-Monkey Haha, no, you're not dreaming. A deserved win, too.

                          Not a great game, due to the wet weather making the field - and the ball - slippery. The first half deserved a draw, but the Blues were better than the Bulls in the second half.

                          My stand-outs were Sotutu, Robinson and Black, who has been a much needed improvement on Perofeta at 10.

                            Crucial win for the boys there. First time we've won 2 of our first 4 games since 2013 so it keeps us in the hunt to maybe do something this year especially with both wins coming away from home.

                            We'll do well to get anything next week however against a strong Stormers side.

                              @Stargazer How did Plummer and Perofeta look in their new positions?

                                Not the prettiest game, but in those conditions, I'm happy enough to come away with any type of win. I actually can't remember the last time we won over there.

                                Parsons looks like he'll be out for a while, so I'm guessing Tolai will be flown over for the Stormers game.

                                  @African-Monkey Perofeta definitely better at 15 than at 10. Had a few nice touches, so I'd give him a pass mark. The Blues' midfield was quite anonymous in this game.

                                    Perofeta wasn't bad, but Plummer looked lost on defense at 12. He let in a few big linebreaks in the first half.
