Drua v Blues

[KiwiMurph]

Zarn to Rieko - nice.

[antipodean]

This is the Telea, Zarn and Rieko show so far.

Things might improve if the Blues lineout starts to function.

Lol more Beauden standing flat footed serving rubbish

Just tuned in, I swear I am sober - but did I see BB actually take the ball in to contact before that try?

[Duluth]

Lots of stoppages and scrums. Not a bad thing for the Blues considering the weather

[Duluth]

Plummer has increased his place kicking distance

[antipodean]

WTF was Darry thinking there?

[KiwiMurph]

Smart of Drua to target Darry on the restarts - he is such a weak link

The most overrated player on the Blues. They were better off with Tucker and Suafoa earlier in the season

[Duluth]

Good power Suafoa

[antipodean]

Great efforts by Plummer and then Suafoa. Drua's punishing defence falling off now.

[KiwiMurph]

Cripes Suafoa is impressive

[Stargazer]

Ikanivere is having a mare with his terrible line-out throws. Resulting in a Blue try, this time.

[antipodean]

7 - 20 at halftime.

[antipodean]

Lineouts on both sides are a lottery. Common denominator the quality of the throws.

[KiwiMurph]

Is that Drua scrum move legal where the Drua 8 leaves the scrum before the ball is out?

[Stargazer]

Not the best game, this. So many handling errors!

the balls are clearly sweaty and slippery.

[Stargazer]

@nzzp That doesn't explain away the bad passes and line-out throws.
