    The first huge huge hole in defence was caused by Ofa. Exploited well by the Highlanders.

    Blues are playing individually, putting themselves under pressure.

        Bad lineout throw by Parsons just when the Blues need possession.

            Dalton appears a fraction too slow to be an openside.

            @Toddy He's usually ok in that area. Having said that, they've beaten us to the punch in that area tonight.

                    Yep, one of those nights when you worry for him whenever the ball goes in the air anywhere near him.

                          Parsons through the previous two down the Highlanders side. Good work this time.

                            Great leg drive by Frizzell - why have we never seen that before?

                            Because he's usually on the bench. 😉

                                Sotutu very lucky in the way he played that breakdown. But excellent chase on the Parsons kick and pressure nonetheless.

                                Good drive off the lineout.

                                Black trying to keep the draw on!

                                    Don't understand why they've kept Gregory on the field for so long. Bring on Gatland!

                                      Gregory.

                                      You don't know whether to sympathise, laugh or hide your eyes in horror.

                                        It's a joke - referencing his elevation to the ABs.
