Chiefs v Blues
-
Some poor decisions giving Chiefs ball in the red zone. The AB first five needs no 2nd invitation - pure class.<br><br>
Great game so far. -
Ranger again with a dumb offload after the Blues get a turnover. He is nowhere near AB level despite his running game.

<p>So when he fucks up, we call him Reiko. And when he does something right, we call him Rieko?</p> -
<p>Way too easy for Tumivalu there.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I thought Sopoaga was awesome, but Cruden has just taken it up a level.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Blues have been committing harikari with not playing for territory.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>IMO there is a 4th AB mdfield spot up for grabs (I'm assuming Ngatai, Crotty, Fekiotoa), should be an interesting debate. Even Thompson from the Highlanders has been playing ok. Or a bolter eg Havili, but I suspect Moala will egt the nod and some serious coaching.</p> -

<p>I dont think his running game is anywhere near what it has been in the past....gotta think his neck injury is still playing on his mind (although we know the path back from the NH isnt an easy one)</p> -

Technically, Rieko is also a girls name.<br><br>
Or, at least, I thought she was a girl. -
<p>Great hit Sam Cane</p>
-
<p>no way was Bekhuis given a chance to release there</p>

<p>I like the look of Guyton over Hall, seems more decisive</p>
<p> </p>
<p>both passing a bit average</p> -

<p>Guyton's passes are not good. West has to take them standing still and often reaching over his head.<br><br><br>

<p>Seems like there's these discussions surrounding the Blues every year.</p>

<p>Beaver's off to the blood bin. TKB on at second five.</p> -
<p>Geez this Blues attack is really stifled most of the time. I think I can see what they're trying to do - look for opportunities to play quick ball around the breakdown after going side to side. But their side-to-side just needs some players hitting the ball at pace and straight to make a lot more yards and to set them away. Most of the time the ball gets passed to a player standing still, who drifts a little and passes to another player standing still and then drifting....</p>
<p> </p>
<p>From the camera angle you can clearly see the space if they just use some pace, it's quite frustrating.</p>
