    Beauden puts every player outside him under pressure by shovelling static ball. Almost no one can run on to anything he does.

    Look for him to kick possession away with two minutes left on the clock.

    It's really noticeable at the ground. He is punishing to watch during phase play.

          Well that was an odd game. The Blues have a lot to work on that’s for sure.

            guess that result is good for the comp, not so much for the Blues

                Barrett has relied for years on utter bullshit plays and stepping through tired opposition after everyone else had done the hard work.

                But he's no Rieko. Who murdered any chance of winning with his selfishness

                  There is no way with the talent they have the Blues should lose a game like that. Is the players or the coaches? Same weaknesses in ABs. In ability to play % and apply pressure. They played their best rugby with 13 when they held the ball.

                      Same coach killing players that are in the ABs.

                      But hey, it’s Foster that wrecks them and Rangi will join Razor to put things right……

                          Did he deem it a maul before it went to ground? I think there were multiple players around the ball as they were going forward. Not sure.

                            Blues could struggle up front. I hope they have been putting in the lineout defense work because you know what is coming.

                            I will be making more obvious predictions during the season.
                            I really am losing my confidence in BB to control or even close out a game. I think I will get on the DMac train for the ABs.

                              How can you even think the Blues shouldn't lose the game? Brumbies have as many quality players as the Blues.

                                      Yeah Agreed,But DMac was not perfect rd 2,He kicked a Penalty dead when going for touch,Ran across field a bit which cramped the chiefs backs.
                                      Just Replying to the Richie looked laboured which this week he wasn't.
                                      For Me DMac and Richie in the 23 which ever way on form when the time comes.
                                      Barrett no where near the top 23.

                                        DMac was far better than Richie round 1.

                                        Yeah Agreed,But DMac was not perfect rd 2,He kicked a Penalty dead when going for touch,Ran across field a bit which cramped the chiefs backs.
                                        Just Replying to the Richie looked laboured which this week he wasn't.
                                        For Me DMac and Richie in the 23 which ever way on form when the time comes.
                                        Barrett no where near the top 23.

                                        @Chris I believe DMac was better than Ritchie in Rd2. Either way BB is not up our man at 10.

                                          I Reckon Richie was better Rd 2 but totally Agree about BB at 10.
