    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.

                      Richie looks pretty good to me v Highlanders.
                      Kicked all his Goal Kicks scored a try set up a try with a 50 metre Run.
                      He will get better the more he plays.

                          Yeah Agreed,But DMac was not perfect rd 2,He kicked a Penalty dead when going for touch,Ran across field a bit which cramped the chiefs backs.
                          Just Replying to the Richie looked laboured which this week he wasn't.
                          For Me DMac and Richie in the 23 which ever way on form when the time comes.
                          Barrett no where near the top 23.

                                      Noted the 4000th time by a Fern poster.
                                      Yet, he'll probably be picked as the backup because he seems to be the first in line fullback.

                                        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……

                                        Try to keep your bitterness to the Foster/Robertson thread you love so much.
