Frizell not interested on defense there.

Think he had to cover two further out..

[Anonymous]

That quick tap was no where near the mark the ref was going to

[No Quarter]

Blues missed Dalton in the early exchanges but as expected had faaaar too much strike power for the Landers

[KiwiMurph]

Is Lam the most underrated winger in NZ?

How is there not a card from all of those replays?

Probably thought it might be a bad look carding someone as they are stretchered off

Good enough to send Huw Richards off after he wakes up, good enough to card the Clan for clear foul play.

[Frank]

Looking forward to seeing Fakatava in Black. He is superior to Christie.

That was in the good old days when the refs were nastier

[Tim]

Good link play and kick chasing from Akira Ioane tonight.

[Stargazer]

Highlanders are their own worst enemy.

I hadn't seen him play much but can see what the fuss is about, a very classy young player

[MajorPom]

I’ve really fallen out with rugby over the last 5-6 years.

But I’m loving watching the Blues. Beautiful rugby.

They've been my favourite team this year, I've watched them more than my Canes

[Machpants]

All the games so far lopsided, scrappy affairs, really just go straight to semis next year, play an extra pool game

[KiwiMurph]

I feel like Hoskins is drifting out of games a lot less. These days just gets stuck in.

No de groot in that scrum

No Tu'ungafasi

Also: Romano

[taniwharugby]

Blues scrum messing with them there.

[Tim]

Different with two full sized locks in the scrum.

[Steven Harris]

@taniwharugby so much power coming through the 2nd row

[Stargazer]

I think Fakatava did an excellent job replacing Smith as a starter. No surprise Hammington only gets 2 minutes.

[taniwharugby]

@Tim have to think there will be a reshuffle.in the tight 5 next week
