Big game for the Blues IMO,<br><br>if they are disappointing here, it really will feel like its more of the same

[mimic]

<p>west with a short ball to reiko ioane to bust the line and then pass back to west to go under the posts.. blues 7-0 after 11 mins</p>

[mimic]

<p>sautia beats tevita li in the air.. and burns luatua on the outside to score for the reds in the corner..</p>
<p> </p>
<p>blues 7-7 reds after 13 mins</p>

[mimic]

<p>west converts a penalty from almost in front</p>
<p> </p>
<p>blues 10-7</p>

[mimic]

<p>visinia holds the ball in two hands and sets up hall for a try in the corner.. looked like another forward pass lol</p>
<p> </p>
<p>blues 15-7 after 19 mins</p>

[mimic]

<p>hunt with some fancy footwork to elude tevita li on his return..</p>
<p>and then ofa gets a turnover penalty after the reds were hot on attack </p>

[Gunner]

Seems to be a lot of attacking play early on - what's the defense looking like?

[African Monkey]

<p>Why do we always have to make things so fucken hard for ourselves!!!</p>

[Unite]

Passing through the Blues backline is bloody ordinary. Lots of reaching above above heads for balls.

[Unite]

Blues on a team warning now by the looks.

[antipodean]

<p>Fuck the Blues are ill-disciplined.</p>

[Siam]

<p>cripple fight really. poor basics all round</p>

[Unite]

Blues scrum in all sorts

[antipodean]

<p>Can Parsons scrummage?</p>

But the blues props have such great workrate 😄😄

[African Monkey]

<p>As usual we make these numpties look better than what they are. Sort your fucken shit out blues especially at scrum time.</p>

[Crucial]

Reds certainly have the dominant scrum but how come in other games this season refs have called for the ball to be used once it is at the 8s feet? <br>
I thought this was a good change to stop penalty milking. <br>
A dominant scrum should give you good ball with a defence on their heels not a penalty just because.

[Unite]

It is bloody disappointing really.

<p>Tu'ungafasi would probably be the best prop in the world if he could scrummage.</p>
