    I'm guessing a lack of drive or confidence is a killer for a 7.

          Forwards look good. Akira has been great. Scrum all over them. Good at lineout time. Robinsons had 2 steals, Tucker solid enough

            How much more dangerous are the blues when both wingers pose a massive risk to the opposition...

            @Bones I know you don’t like Clarke, but he’s in the top few of the clean breaks this year. Not sure that thought holds up.

              @kev Robinson has been way more effective than I expected. Good to see.

                  I swear rugby is played to a script. Aus v Kiwi sides. Aussie side scores early, first half somewhat close but the Kiwis score either right before half time or right after.

                  Should be 50+ with Tahs potentially getting a consolation try.

                    Ioane's ruck work is better this season. Starting to get his carrying going this week.

                      @Tim his tight play has been excellent. Good lineout target too.

                          Blooming heck even Nepo managed to hold onto the ball and make metres! He seems to have improved in the carry this season?

                            It looks like he is playing a lot tighter too. Pleasing to see him working in to some form at the right end of the season.

                                Its always strange, the aussie teams seem to have great fluency in their attack but can't seem to score. The Blues in comparison have been dire with their backline moves bar the try and they are up 17-7. Most of that has been the scrum penalties, lineout steals and Akira holding up players. So my conclusion is the Tahs forwards are shit.

                                    Making better use of his power. Asking him to run the ball is not an effective use of his strengths.

                                        Kicked out on the full on kick-off. I blame the mullet. If you want to be taken seriously, chum, cut your bloody hair.
