    Riccitelli is quite good at those driving plays close to the line

    It helps if you are short with a low centre of gravity.

      BB literally avoiding contact... Should not be starting in the blues.

      Sullivan shows what happens when you run hard and with purpose.

        @KiwiMurph but his distribution skills and kicking options are way better ,Plummer getting a free pass as someone who doesn’t quite cut it as a top level first five but all of sudden wants to be a 2nd five .
        Former Harbour player Michael Little was a similar size to Corey Evans also with brilliant distribution and kicking skills ,another under utilised midfielder under Pat lams watch .
        Seems to be a pattern at Blues HQ,pick someone but never play them

        Saying Evans kicking options are way better than Plummer is a real stretch. He has barely kicked when playing for Blues or Auckland.

        I hear what you are saying re: distribution.

        Definitely selection issues. Someone like Segner always picked yet Rush never plays.

        Segner comes from Ta$man. It’s a bit shit to see him promoted ahead of some really good talent within the region.

          @antipodean nonsense. HJH was always falling and he flew in uncontrolled. At least a yellow up north.

          Thanks for demonstrating your overactive imagination. What actually happened was HJH fell to the ground after catching the ball with Ofa taking one step for would've been a legitimate tackle had HJH stayed on his feet.

          Now you could just fuck off back to GAGR instead of crying about rugby here.

          @antipodean dude went flying in and you don't think he could have done anything differently. 'Would have been a legitimate tackle'. The fuck relevance does what might have happened have to what actually did?

                3 carries by Darry there. 2 resulting in turnovers.

                                    Surely Mcdonald has the sense to tell BB to stop those kicks, although as he is still doing them, have to assume he is OK with them
