Tash games are ugly games
That was a pretty ugly tash on the Wah's #8

Has Morgan turunui got his hotel bath robe on?

Segner needs to be starting
Accurate and effective. Needs more minutes.

I feel like we could struggle next week against the Crusaders. Our bullying, physical style of play will play into the Crusaders hands as one thing they love to do is roll up the sleeves and graft all day, and they'll come to Eden Park to spoil.
Not convinced by what I'm seeing of the Blues currently.

Get out of town. You'll crush them. They're going zip from 6.

Ferguson interviewing Tele'a:
Question: What did you think of your own game tonight?
I wish he'd answered: Awesome eh? Obvious MotM performance carrying the team.To think Stan binned Drew for that.

Still, 3 from 4 I guess....

..and haven’t played at Eden Park yet
But the backline isn’t functioning. I guess the backs coach shuffle hasn’t helped. I would be tempted to have a look at Cashmore soon though. Even just from the bench

@Bones Hmmm as much as I'd like for that to be the case, I'm not convinced so far.

Blues at home against a worse crusaders team than 96? You're not fooling anyone bud.

@Bones I also got laughed at for talking up their chances against the Canes, saying it would be 5 points either way, and it was, whilst everyone else was slagging them off from all angles, and the Canes are travelling a lot better than us currently.
We've also won once in our last 18 games against them, and despite our good record, we haven't been great.
It'll be another tough contest, the Cantabs always get up for us no matter the situation.

@African-Monkey how many of those games were were under razor with Taylor, Whitelock, Hall, Mounga etc? Straw man argument comparing to that.
It will be an epic failure if the blues lose. Just like it would've been if the canes lost.

@Bones Not buying it. They could have easily had wins over the Chiefs and Canes. They've had one shocking performance against the Tahs with a loss in Fiji which is up there with the hardest place to play in the world if not the hardest.
They have enough there to win and kick start their season.

Nah, canes and chiefs played down to their level.

The shame about this game? It ws the FTA game in Aus last night, and not the kind of game that will attracy eyeballs. Here in NZ we had the Chiefs/Drua which was pretty entertaining, I kind of feel for RA , if they didn't get bad luck sometimes it seems they get none at all.

Wowser, glad I got free tickets for that. Did neither team actually want to win? Also, what has happened this weekend, the standard of games has plummeted from a great start to the season.
Blues, you have Plummer and Sullivan on the field, let one of them take the goal kicks. Also, why, before anyone realised Perofeta's aim was worse than a stormtrooper's, were the Blues not taking penalty kicks?
@NTA Has whistling always been a thing at Tahs games? I thought I was in France or Italy for a while there.
Was Dalton injured? I couldn't tell live whether it was injury or straight sub. Segner looked the business when he came on, is that his best effort at this level?
