    @Chris The first half was fine, but they can't cut out the turnovers and loss of patterns.

      @Chris I really think that not trusting the squad has been a huge issue this year. There are times the opposition just looks fresher.

        I cannot believe that the Blues are going to lose this game. Fucking hell.

              Dumb play from Ardie. 5 points ahead, take the 3 and the game is won.

                  Nah, he can't play 12 with passes like that.

                          We saw the same thing with Nonu for years though - would just phone it in for Super, and then smash it at International level.

                          Irrelevant, as SBW's not Nonu. If anything SBW was less effective at test level than Super, and at this rate if he is picked it would be in the place of a more deserving player.

                          ha ha ha. So, just to be clear, you don't think discussing the attributes of a midfielder who doesn't perform in Super is relevant. Righto, my bad.

                          Yep, your bad, both for first suggesting SBW should be picked even though he has been ordinary because he'll miraculously somehow get better in black like a totally different player, and for the terrible attempt at a strawman argument above.

                            @Dice Lowe played 40 minutes of club rugby last week, after 4 months out. Probably needs a bit more time to get back to full speed.

                              Stuff it, I've turned this off. Done for the night. Going to go and hammer some nails into my balls, or flog myself with rusty barbed wire, or watch parliament TV, or something that's less goddamn painful than watching this.

                                Two past U20s hookers - neither of who can ducking throw. Who is training them? Or are they lazy? There are only really two options...

                                    At halftime i thought that game was buried.

                                    But once the Canes hit the front, the result never looked like being overturned, despite the close score

                                        It’s fucking flabbergasting how the Blues just continued to make shit decision after shit decision - some of those ‘exits’ were more than embarrassing. I’ll admit that they had a few hard calls against them though. Nevertheless, the Canes were very very good - excellent win.

                                          Pat, is it really an improvement if you still cant beat another Kiwi team away from home?
