            That was a massive loss. Fingers crossed for him - has been huge this year.

              I'm just past that. Amazed they didn't have a look.

              Impressed with Nock this week. Good game, so so much better than his last outing

                A Smith has been the best halfback in the country (and arguably the world) for a long long time. Critical to our game, and makes such a difference to the Highlanders. Without him, so many games would be blowouts. What a player

                  @machpants ,Dalton Papalii from what I have been told was really annoyed as both Hoskins was hit high , nothing done and BB had an elbow driven into his head , nothing done and Goodhue was lifted dangerously nothing done ..incredibly Fetuli Paea was involved in all 3 ..

                    @steven-harris that's the frustrating thing. One week it's a card - one week it's play on. Just annoying.

                      Sotutu's having a good game, some really good passing. Creates space if he's doing it rather than then 9. Runs well, and a hell of a fend. Great run, great try. Solid defence.

                      Smashed in the head earlier, but just 'play on' from the refs. Funny old world.

                        @steven-harris That's really shocking mate. Last night it was Morgan's spear tackle, and today it is three head shots.

                          @nzzp I hear you , this is what frustrates the hell out of me as long time follower of the game ,it’s so inconsistent from week to week .
                          It’s like Death by a thousand cards ..!

                            also, how the hell did Coltman drop his bind, tackle the ball carrier at a maul on the 5 going forward and not get a card? Astonishing given what they dish cards out for (see the Romano card in the last Highlanders Blues game a fortnight ago)

                              @nzzp thought that at the time there’s that inconsistency again .
                              Get the impression if Pickerall had been the official he would have looked at everything.

                                that's a good win, away from home against a desperate Highlanders team. Given the disruption, losing Goodhue and BB (two of our best), and wihtout our best 9, I'm happy. Will take it.

                                Strong defence at the end, we've squeaked a couple now and dropped one.

                                Clarke looks really sharp.
                                Sullivan has a lovely boot, and so much time.
                                Sotutu played really well, great skills and athleticism on display.
                                Defence around the park was really strong at times, and disorganised at times.

                                All in all, great result for teh Blues, and plenty of improvement left in them. Lots to work on!

                                Commentators a bit unusual. They just fawn over some players; RTS in Game 1, now Frizzell.

                                  You have to be now concerned for Barrett and Goodhues future’s with more heads knocks.

                                        @old-samurai-jack agree to disagree on that one.

                                        I think it was him two weeks ago pumping the 'unfairness' line after knock on advantage played out with metres forward and clean possession followed by a shit 'landers kick.

                                          Don't worry, if this Blues' Cantab doesn't work out they've got Tucker and Romano they can go to.
