I was at that game. From memory Kaino smoked someone in a huge hit and got carded - which was a defining turning point in the game. Felt dubious at the time but funny thinking back it would probably be a 20 minute red and a few weeks off these days.
Interestingly the year prior 2014 Blues were the only Kiwi team to beat the Tahs in their title winning season.

@KiwiMurph Yeah that's when Cheika spent the whole of halftime intimidating the ref which led to a ridiculously lopsided penalty count in the 2nd half. We would have still lost anyway as we were hopeless that year, but yeah, Chieka did a good job for his team that night.

@African-Monkey That's right. Forgot about that part.

@Nepia Tahs offered a 2 for 1 ticket deal for last week's match and all nsw school rugby players and junior referees get free entry.
Well that doesn't help me and my middle aged mates this weekend.
Sadly, I haven't seen any deals this week.

There is a deal for General Admin + 2 x Coopers beers for $40.

Cheers, I actually scored some free tickets during the week.
The price of the general admin tickets wasn't the issue (for the others), it's where the seats are.

Why is Bell only on the bench?
They probably want some experience to go with a very young inexperienced bench front row (bench hooker is 5th choice). I wouldn't be surprised to see Bell on the field after 30 minutes.

couple of pretty decent rugby teams there, how did the Blues only win 3 games?
