    <p>Difficult to understand how a team coached by Larkham has a maul as its only offensive weapon.</p>

      <p>At least the Waratahs will play a bit of attacking football next week unlike these negative deadshits.</p>
      <p> </p>
      <p>Every Blues player has been great except for Tevita Li. Hopefully he is dropped next week.</p>

            Ha ha, Nick. 🙂 I am watching the game with my old man, and must admit that I am drinking and am super duper fired up! <br><br>
            Just loving seeing the Blues on fire.

              Don't worry mate, am going to rewatch Everybody Wants Some (set in the year of 1980!) tonight, so I can write a review for a friend's magazine.

                    Took the Blues head to head as the roughy in a multi, you beauty.<br><br>
                    Wish I had of taken them 13 plus though, that was paying real good coin!

                        What's the deal with the Brumbies? Other than the maul they didn't fire a single shot. I'd understand if they were coached by Owen Finegan or Marco Caputo but this is Larkham coached team. Bizarre is an understatement.

                          Great result. Was enjoyable seeing a team playing such negative, boring rugby getting smashed. <br>
                          Think West and Francis showed they should be there next year possibly fighting it out for the 10 spot (is francis a 10?) <br><br>
                          Nanai = future AB.....Fabmn. Well maybe, but he was good.<br>
                          Luatua huge. Kaino awesome again. Thought he was meant to be past it? <br><br>
                          Bring back legal collapsing of the maul.

                            Awesome. That did feel like a real step down in opposition compared to the last two Super games for the Blues.<br><br>
                            Francis adds a heck of a lot at 12.<br><br>
                            Thought the Blues bench really added something this week - though it is hard to get a read when Duffie is carving up.<br><br>
                            Bring on the Tahs next week.

                                Also - I think Luatua has legitimate claim over Todd to be the player most unlucky to miss the ABs - the guy is everywhere on the field.

                                  <p>Yeah thought Umaga was on drugs letting Francis in the wider training squad let alone starting every week but he has made a very good fist of 12. Duffie is slowly getting better and I have been very critical of him. At least he adds something in terms of aerial ablility unlike Tevita Li who just offers absolutely nothing in attack yet continues to get picked.</p>

                                          <p>3 things usually happen with a Li crash ball - He either mistimes his runs completely and runs into a team mate, throws a stupid offload to no-one, or goes to ground like he's been shot by a someone in the crowd.</p>
