    Brumbies are good and deserve their win if they hang on but the likes of the Chiefs will be tougher.

      Especially when almost all of their points are from poor discipline and execution rather than their own creation.

          Beauden puts every player outside him under pressure by shovelling static ball. Almost no one can run on to anything he does.

          Look for him to kick possession away with two minutes left on the clock.

            It's weird when Riccitelli is one of the Blues' best players.

                It's really noticeable at the ground. He is punishing to watch during phase play.

                  This game has pissed me off, damn frustrating after all the gains made over the last 3 seasons we now look like shit.

                      Well that was an odd game. The Blues have a lot to work on that’s for sure.

                        guess that result is good for the comp, not so much for the Blues

                            Barrett has relied for years on utter bullshit plays and stepping through tired opposition after everyone else had done the hard work.

                            But he's no Rieko. Who murdered any chance of winning with his selfishness

                              There is no way with the talent they have the Blues should lose a game like that. Is the players or the coaches? Same weaknesses in ABs. In ability to play % and apply pressure. They played their best rugby with 13 when they held the ball.

                                  Same coach killing players that are in the ABs.

                                  But hey, it’s Foster that wrecks them and Rangi will join Razor to put things right……

                                      Did he deem it a maul before it went to ground? I think there were multiple players around the ball as they were going forward. Not sure.

                                        Blues could struggle up front. I hope they have been putting in the lineout defense work because you know what is coming.

                                        I will be making more obvious predictions during the season.
                                        I really am losing my confidence in BB to control or even close out a game. I think I will get on the DMac train for the ABs.

                                          How can you even think the Blues shouldn't lose the game? Brumbies have as many quality players as the Blues.
