        Of course those scrums that just fold under pressure, it might be hard to identify the culprit, so how on earth are you going to bin someone?</p>

          Much like the Canes last week. Funny how that works.

                The highlanders actually signed Li? It wasn't like a booby Super rugby contract prize?

                  Just saw the last one so cant judge, but I agree with you if it was so.<br><br>
                  I thought that the Blues PT should have been YC too. But propably didnt give it becouse he didnt card Ofa earlier

                        <p>outstanding defence there by Blues, commitment by Francis I think it was on the loose ball</p>

                          Shit, great d at the end there from the Blues. <br>
                          Folau would score from that position 99 times out of 100.

                              <p>Ofa really has not had this problem most of this year.  Last year yes.  Obviously the AB selectors see something in him.  Is it who is behind him namely Pryor and Bekhuis?  You have to like his tackling and taking the ball to the line.  Is he really that bad a scrummager?</p>

                                <p>So, Hooper tackles Pryor off the ball.  Then tackles him again when he gets back up and tries to get back.</p>

                                  <p>Bekhuis.  We'll get a better view in the 2nd half but Ofa is saying to the ref that Ryan is angling in.  All props do that.</p>
                                  <p> </p>
                                  <p>Very average from an AB prop.  I think Ofa was also the reason the Blues lost the ball at that ruck at the end as he tried to clean and dislodged the ball forward. </p>

                                        <p>Fraser is penalising him for standing up - after three for the same thing that is persistent infringing. Agree that it's a bit unfortunate when you're not capable of staying in the scrum, but that's the way it's been reffed in recent times whenever I've been watching.</p>

                                          <p>I guess we will possibly see Tanas feeling on Ofa if he is replaced in the second half. </p>
