Watching the crowd, and I have come to a ground breaking conclusion, I'm a dirty old man
North Dunedin. The suburb that does not age.
Me too!!
I was like "ooh spunks" then remember they are probably 30 years my junior
Sicko
They're probably born between 2004 and 2007...
As are both my kids...yikes

Great break by folau
Pretty awesome save by BB too
True his defence had not been an issue, is all the rest
-
Can see us conceding before half
-
really not sure how we are so close.... Blues just need to go through some phases really
-
Of course we give away the penalty straight after scoring

They're too busy looking at the next phase instead of doing the job in front of them.

New Zealand's best openside flanker Jim Tavatavanawai to the rescue

Moron likes it, I say take three 3
And I'm right, and Joey shit for brains is unsurprisingly wrong
-
We look a bit flustered out there.

Blues are a shadow of the 2024 team
What's missing? Ioane and the halfback that's better than ginge?
-
Great hit by groot sets up the turnover... pheeeeeewww
My pessimism unfounded so far... although I still feel Blues just need to slow it down a bit and hold on to some possession and the points will come

I think rule changes hurt Vern ball.
Also - Landers are clearly better under Joseph than under Dermody.

Definitely a lot more shape to the Landers and a bit less shape to the blues. Blues at rushing it, very reminiscent of the ABs recently.

I've been amazed at how many pundits have just written the Landers off on the basis of other teams will be better.
Even after last weeks game. Everyone lauded the Tahs, then just said, yeah Landers, no wonder they lost

Tangitau should have been released. Bullshit no call
Yes, that was so obvious. But Daymon!!
BB didn't clearly release before the Gilbert try too.

There was also a Landers knock on at the line out leading up to that try.
I think it's fair to say you win some you lose some?
