    Yes they asked him straight away to confirm how great that impact was..
    Dramatic irony in Australia is basically NZ rugby players entering an empty Sydney airport asking where the bloody hell are ya?

      FT: 50-3 Blues and you have to wonder about how the 3 got there...

      To be fair, I think most people are baffled at how it wasn't 10.

      I can live with 50: -7.

      Meanwhile the commentators said that score will hurt the rebels.

            Reiko was funny. Good to see him lighten up with SBW.

              Ioane should be starting at 8. Cowley-Tuioti is in career best form.

                      Blues forwards have set up what has been a very comfortable victory …Josh Goodhue has been superb, fantastic work rate and throw in a couple superbly timed offloads ..

                      Great to see him throw that offload to GCT then be first to ruck to do the cleanout. Part of a very dominant forward pack.

                        Hell of a second half from the Blues. Rebels look like dog shit.

                          I dunno. It’s a good excuse to ease Patrick back from injury.

                          I’d like to see Sotutu rotated a bit more, and I love we finished with Akira, Sotutu and Robinson all on the park at the same time.

                          Was two scrums with only seven men too wasn’t there?

                            Great win by the blues, slightly dominant and snuck through in the end. Rebels unlucky.

                              @kirwan be very tempted to leave Robinson as the skip because it’s does not seem to effect his game and I do like that he’s in the officials ear..
                              Also Patty T can focus on getting his game back to what we know he is capable of .

                                    How was that YC for choat not a PT too, he was the sole reason they didn't score, that was a clear example of a penalty try.

                                    Some great tries, that move down the right with the passing and off loads resulting in the Plummer kick to Lam was awesome.

                                      How about the Rebels scrum disintegrating for the fifth or sixth time as the Blues scrum rolls towards teh line. As clear at PT as I think you'll see.

                                      Or, for that matter, a shoulder charge in defence stopping a defender running forward.

                                      The refereeing was shabby, again.

                                        @nzzp sadly kiwis know Pickerell struggles at NPC, how he gets a super gig is beyond me.

                                        Yea were other moments too, but in the context of the game that one stood out most.
