Crusaders v Blues

[Tim]

@His-Bobness Not a lot of creativity with the back moves is there?

Razor having second thoughts about appointing Leon as an assistant coach?

Well, he won't be looking after the kicking department...

I read Leon the other day say that he was surprised at the poor discipline last week because it's not usually bad.

Was he asleep during the Chiefs and Brumbies games when Blues went down to 13 men?

That is exactly why I don’t want Clarke to be on the wing for the ABs. Fucks up an attacking kick and then drops the ball. Makes far too many mistakes.

[Tim]

Holy shit, Barrett actually ran it. Then my stream timed out.

Yep i'm a Clarke fan but you can't pick him

Clarke fucked it up.

He's far too error prone.

[Mattasaurus]

BB showed that if he runs the fucking ball it actually creates options

[Jailbreak7]

@KiwiMurph Think he picked up an injury early on.

[Gunner]

Blues need to fire some shots, or this game is going to fizz out…

[His Bobness]

@Tim Standing too deep, kicking too much, kicking badly. The only positive the kick-offs to Clarke. It’s patently obvious the kicking game isn’t working. That they can’t seem to see that is a real worry.

[Mattasaurus]

Great hit by Grace there.

That's the coaching master plan. Stand still most of the game shovelling ball to your outsides, or aimlessly kick. Then run it while the opposition are stunned.

The blues need to learn from the Saders - they should just launch themselves at defenders when cleaning, the ref clearly doesn’t give a shit about whether they remain on their feet.

[Frank]

Goodhue takes good options despite having the pace of a front rower.

[hydro11]

Blues have actually done okay to stay in this game. Crusaders haven't scored yet against 14 and have let them off the hook.

[KiwiMurph]

Heem got held up to end the Eden Park game vs Crusaders

Heem first touch - held up.

[Victor Meldrew]

That maul just about sums up the Blues tonight.
