SF - Blues v Brumbies

[NTA]

Frost's yellow card is fine.

Especially with Plummer tripping Muirhead earlier in the game and getting zero sanction

[Kirwan]

Pretty happy to win (easily) playing well for 30mins.

Best scrum and defence in the competition.

[Kirwan]

Hopefully the Canes players aren’t as complacent as some of their fans, but feel happy with either team.

Be nice to have the final in the Garden of Eden to send off Akira.

Any news on Papalii?

He failed his HIA. Wouldn’t that put him out for next week?

They interviewed him after the game and he said he’s fine

They certainly haven't wasted any good moves. Laughably easy

Yep and Caleb copping a shoulder to head when chasing through a kick in first half. Tough life for some players huh?

[NTA]

@Dan54 officials did nothing about two of them. Why? Usually the TMO is absolutely erect for anything resembling foul play

[Tim]

@NTA Not this year.

And the games have been better for it

[ARHS]

Mystified by the officiating. Seemed poor. Plummer And Riccitelli very good tonight. Funaki not.

[KiwiMurph]

Not the biggest Darry fan but I thought he was very good tonight. Stepped up as the senior lock.

Only of he fails assessment 2

[Old Samurai Jack]

I personally think whoever wins on Saturday wins the tournament. Blues pack played as individuals tonight. If they do that again in the final, .... I am sure Cotter is well aware and will read the riot act this week though. Plummer, Clarke, Ofa, and Renata were good.

@Old-Samurai-Jack I was quite happy funnily enough haha. I get we weren't at our best for a lot of the game, but what's the point if the game was virtually done and dusted at 25 mins? We virtually stayed in 2nd gear after that which is good, no need to empty the tank when the main job was done.

Hurricanes I can understand thinking they're favourites as they'll be home and have been very good this season but the Chiefs? We bullied them all over the park 2 weeks ago. They did well to only lose 31-17.
