Jesus Rieko where is the pace?

Clever play to point out it's centre or nothing

[sparky]

Good performance by the Blues. Far too good the Waratahs. Heading to the playoffs.

[Yeetyaah]

Woeratahs

@Tim yeah doesn't exactly feel like the blues are putting on a clinic, but the scoreboard says so.

Nah this is the most fluid play from the Blues this year.

Not sure that's saying a lot.

On that earlier one, I think he was looking too hard for the try assist and missed the chance to put the foot down and score himself

Playing like I just dropped him from my fantasy team. If he can play a whole one game that's quality for the ABs this year he might be player of the year. Would definitely win most improved.

Was actually talking about the grubber chase for the try.

Looked normal speed Rieko for that last try.

[Tim]

He was good for the ABs last year, especially against Ireland. He attracts some irrational comments.

Reiko Ioane responds to all the (IMHO some of it justified) criticism he's received with a hat-trick. Good for him!

[antipodean]

Tahs kicking possession away like they're trying to entice Beauden to Sydney next year.

No he doesn't. He attracts criticism in the same way a shit Cody Taylor or Scott Barrett does.

[Landers92]

Baffles me that the tahs have the amount of $$ and wallabies as they do and they end up like this every season. Even with some of the rebels landing with them it’s the same old tahs

[sparky]

Dalton Papalii's been massive this game. Actually he's been great all season for the Blues.

Nice captaincy by Rieko to hand Harry a final moment for his time at the Blues on Eden Park.
