Perofeta got to be an AB this year.

Hopefully an upgrade on Mounga (because he can tackle)

Let's see how he goes at 1st 5 first. Doing well at fullback.

Machpants

Oh god, Beaudy rocks and diamonds. He used to do pin point cross field kicks

NTA

Jeez rough call. Blues THP on his knees before the movement

taniwharugby

Highlanders clinging to the edge of the cliff

Tim

Any release there?

No Quarter

BS penalty but the Landers have done well to hang on, gives them a chance to regroup at halftime as the Blues were starting to run rampant there

KiwiMurph

Both No 8s having strong games.

antipodean

Blues need to dial back the 50:50 "passes" and be patient enough to build pressure. That alone will get them through against a spirited but limited opposition.

Shouldn't need a half time chat to sort that out. The leadership group on the field need to stand up.

If only BB could.kick....

Man that's so true, has he done anything but crap with the boot all half?

African Monkey

Starting to warm into the game after a nervous first 30. Still, the Highlanders are just hanging in there.

Yes, but different skills.

That's exactly what caused the sudden twist. Rough call.

He'd be one of the worst field kicking 1st fives around.

Yep. It's not gonna suddenly change. It is what it is.

Mattasaurus

I'll take that as a landers fan....
Our scrum has been very good, even a man down.. That 20mins with 14 men may come back to haunt us.
Gregory saves his best 40mins for tonight

BB needs to be told to put the boot away..
If the blues hold on to the ball they should be able to win by a comfortable margin.

number9

Blues need to hit it up through the forwards, then hit the backs. Going wide too soon.

His short kick offs, kick passes, and chips ahead used to be sublime. Now he can't even do that
