Blues v Drua

@taniwharugby said in Blues v Drua:

Is a decent breeze at the blues backs, but it ain't a 26 point one

Blues going up the guts will suit playing into the wind too

[chimoaus]

@taniwharugby Looks like a nice day over there mate? Been too long since I saw a game at Okara Park.

[Kirwan]

We look organised on attack and defence, very different pattern from last year

[Bovidae]

@taniwharugby said in Blues v Drua:

Not sure how all 3 officials missed that massive forward pass

I reckon there were 2 in that move.

Parsons is the Blues equivalent of TJ in commentary.

No one is as bad as TJ.

@chimoaus has cooled down a bit, was near 30 just before kick off.

Agreed. Also players look to be in good nick and working hard

Really pleasing half

@Duluth said in Blues v Drua:

Good steal Darry

Christie tidied up the poor pass brilliantly

One of the better Darry halves I can remember. Cotter impact perhaps

[taniwharugby]

@chimoaus you made a comment earlier about the pitch, I've never seen Okara cut up like this, usually such a great surface

[African Monkey]

Impressed with the Blues physicality, especially Darry and Segner. Drua have looked handy with ball in hand but we've also muscled up as well.

[chimoaus]

Blues forwards seem to be very fit and mobile at getting to each breakdown. Front row seems to be playing like loose forwards in terms of work rate.

[Chris]

Sotutu for all his work misses a lot of tackles.
A work on for him from last season looks like it hasn’t got much better.

[chimoaus]

@taniwharugby Is it a new surface? Maybe the heat has dried it out or something.

[Duluth]

Bad start, back to back penalties

[Kirwan]

Blues tackling has been very good.

[chimoaus]

@Duluth Especially considering they are a man down.

[Duluth]

Three soft penalties in a row

[Kirwan]

Yeah, that was coming. Hopefully that wakes them up

[Kirwan]

And of course Ben is much faster to give us a yellow.
