@MN5 Nah we just trying not to embarrass your 1920s boxing knowledge for not referencing Will Harrison from the Tahs for the bench instead as that was that was Jack's real name.

Another old Blues v Brumbies match
This one is from 2012. The Blues had a horror run with injuries (I remember something like 11 locks injured?). So the season was a disaster. This game was about the Brumbies building momentum into the playoffs there wasn't even a question that they wouldn't make it
The Blues injuries had eased slightly by this stage of the season and Piutau was in great form.

The rookies(Luatua, Piutau, and Saili) were all playing well. They were pretty much the only good thing about the season.
Losing our two best players(Kaino and Toeava) early in the season pretty much killed our chances of getting back into the playoffs.

@nzzp come on man, this is the Blues. Rangi has your boys humming.
On the scrum last week, I thought the Blues tighthead allowed his opposite to get in under him, which created issues for both him and the hooker.
Brumbies scrum is okayish, it’s their lineout and
illegallying on the wrong side that is pretty effectiveSo guys what time is the Brumbies v Chiefs match going to be played next week? Or will one of the underdogs scrape through to spoil the party?

They don’t have a playoff for 3rd and 4th as far as I know

@Mattasaurus Just a little bit of rain, but might hit at the game.

I just want the Blues to get ahead early and crush any Brumbies hopes...(especially if wet)
The longer they are in the game and close, the more dangerous they will be.

I hope TJ's comments about a big crowd expected are right but I have serious doubts.
wet night in Auckland. will be a big crowd 'for NZ current Super', but not a Big Crowd.
25k would be excellent. 30+ outstanding.
Anyone know the crowd last night? Modern journalism in a nutshell below; hurr durr empty seats on social media. Like, WTAF are the crowd numbers? Instead it's 'here's a few social media posts I found'.

@nzzp it was cold, wet and windy. Takes a dedicated fan to want to freeze their wet asses off.

And they’ll be out next week, rain hail fog or shine. That’s if the Brumbies do the business and play the greatest game they’ve ever played in their lives

Is it just me or does he looks fatter in Blue and don't get me wrong Luke is still a legend to me even if he is in blue.
He gave his heart and soul to The Crusaders and Canterbury while he was there. -
