      Once the Brumbies can get scrum penalties, they know what to do after that.

      The Blues need to get on top of that, or at least shut that down, or they’ll be buggered. The discipline will give them enough chances without the set piece issues.

        Breaking off from your own players like that in a maul should really be called as obstruction. They're all leaving the existing maul with guys in front of the ball carrier.

          He is so so slow, every ruck he stops for a good 3 seconds before passing, minimum.

          So fucking slow!

            Why the fuck does Renata run straight into a Blue player on the ground.

                  How did he manage to not get tackled? Were they scared they were going to catch something from the redhead?

                          Finally the Blues made good use of turnover ball.

                            Valentini is quite something with the ball in hand but fuck that was average on defense from him then

                              Did the Brumbies 14 try to give him a high 5 as he went past to score?

                                Master stroke from Patty T not taking that kick off receive and then the Brumbies player knocking it straight back into the hands of Sotutu and 80 metres later Christie scores ..does that sum up Blues ..?🤦‍♂️

                                  @steven-harris that was a hell of a restart by White to be fair.

                                        @steven-harris yeah. They've been pretty average in both first halves in the 2 earlier games too.

                                          Getting another thread going for the Saturday 7pm game this weekend at Eden Park.

                                          Round 3, Blues have 10 points. A BP win puts us right in the box seat to make the finals... but these Brumbies are a decent side. Getting 3 more tries will be hard.

                                          Things to work on for the Blues: stop dropping the ball, play to your strengths in the forwards, and play smart. Make sure your scrum is rock solid, defend mauls really really well. Stop giving away stupid penalties.

                                          Brumbies: ... haven't seen them for so long... are they still a 'scrum for penalties, drive mauls over the line' team?

                                          @nzzp broke down and bought Florugby subscription in the states. VIP box was a mess. Good to be able to watch a game without worrying about the feed dropping. Who said this would be the first loss?
