    Clarke is fucking shit tonight.

    Edit: actually that was a really hard bounce.

    I was going to say that until I saw the bounce and thought I'd cut him some slack on that one.

        Until the end, there was some real good ruck ball presentation by the blues, fast and accurate

          Tucker looks better than Romano already. As hard as Romano tries, he's miles past his best.

                Has he been injured? I’m surprised that they haven't used Romano off the bench, if at all.

                    So there will be some changes in the backs this week with RTS & Plummer probably injured

                    Who should start at 12 and who should be the cover is the big question?

                    Also, I thought Mark Telea struggled on defence in the weekend. It's probably time to look at some one else. Lam? JRK?

                    I assume the pack will remain relatively unchanged

                    The backs might be something like this?

                    9 Christie
                    10 Barrett
                    11 Clarke
                    12 Tele'a
                    13 Ioane
                    14 Lam
                    15 Perofeta

                    Nock, Tua, Sullivan

                    so the recipe Blues, you DFs, is to work the ball through the forwards setting the platform for the backs. Same with the ABs. Funny how that works.

                      This is a very average Highlanders backline atm. Gregory, Elder Banks and Dawai. Sheesh.

                        It's easily heard in a full stadium, when there is no one there, his screech is deafening
