Blues v Brumbies
-
Also it's not like he's always been playing like this. I used to think he was a bit flakey, particularly when kicked too.
Something changed last year and his error rate dropped and at the same time he's become more of a threat.

It's still something that I think will get really tested again, especially if he ends up in the ABs.

Brumbies have always been an awkward side for the Blues
Blues have never won 4 in a row against them. All other NZ sides have a longer winning streak vs Brumbies
-
Only just now, the Brumbies have published their squad for this game.
Media release:

It was named a day ago, there's a post further up in this thread
They just didn't bother updating their website until today

@Duluth I've been keeping an eye on their website and socials, and they hadn't published it before. The source for that earlier squad must have been the one submitted to SANZAAR and published somewhere else. It also wasn't on the rugby.com.au website before.
There's probably a reason why the title of their media release contains the word "confirm".

@Stargazer I found that earlier team list on 'The Roar' site. They have a history of occasionally posting teams the day before the official release, even NZ teams.

Might be even smaller crowd than yesterday - and that's saying something
it's a good idea in principle - but travel is $$$ at the moment, and this does not feel well promoted. But you need a weekend of good rugby to make it work, and fans keen enough to sit through 4-5 games over a few days.
Go the Blues. Important to get this win and keep going

Can't say i disagree with the YC....

Poor Blues discipline.
A real common feature under Leon.
it's not just Leon - a cultural thing unfortunately

FFS. Don't known why I bother watching. I do not want to watch a game with players in the bin.

Fuck that. The coach sets the culture

Another poor punt by Beauden.
His kicking is dreadful and I think getting worse every season.

You won't hear it from certain cheerleaders though
