    @nzzp We look no different from 2016-2017 imo. Plucky but like those years, massive problems at set piece.

    I disagree. Have seen some decent improvement over the Tana years.

    @nzzp Yet we're still 4 wins out of 10.

        And you will beat the Canes at home next week as they don’t have a front five just the soft lot they put out every week

          Better than 4/16 last year.

          And look past the wins. I think we're playing better, I can see structure, adn building. There is change there -- but it's taking longer to get wins

                @nzzp Fair enough but I don't see it myself. This team just reminds me of the first 2 years under Tana where we're competitive but lack in the technical aspects up front. Jackson copped plenty of criticism for our failure at set piece time yet Coventry hasn't seemed to make any improvement in that area.

                  The pack and Black lost that game for us.

                  Goodhue was one of the good players in the pack.

                    @African-Monkey initially he did, but we have gone backwards. Be interesting to see how the coaches respond.

                        Nah, pedantic and the Blues just kept giving him reasons to be the center of attention. As I said, stupid.

                          They're such a limited team. Perfect fit for their fans and location.

                                The Blues just can't dictate a game. I mean the Brumbies were just waiting for penalties to get them up the field and then relying on their scrum. You can't complain if your scrum is that bad and you lose. You just can't. Yet the Blues still could have won if they got a more open game. The Blues lost but I don't think the Brumbies actually played any rugby. They just did what they had to. Shit way to lose.

                                        True but how many All Blacks do you need to have a good tight five? You should have enough there already. Obviously your scrum is normally better than that. The Hurricanes have a much worse tight five but we are better at playing to our strengths even if we are getting found out.
