Blues v Hurricanes
-
BB misses SBW and then a YC, which looked a little harsh

@Nepia If he hadn't dived, he wouldn't have been able to tackle him anyway. It would just have been a run to the try line.
We'll never know, I think he was gaining on him - might not have had enough ground to run him down though.

NO ONE catches BB!!!!!!!!
I reckon if Rieko hadn't have dived early he might have got close. I'd like to see them in a footrace.
Yeah nah
-
replay looks worse, but probably fair.
-
another vital error by the Blues

Two errors. Take the 3! Then cough it up. Now Canes down in attack.
-
Now another penalty. Canes will milk the clock here.
-
thats pretty average leadership by Parsons since BB went off
-
messy passage of play, but eating up BBs minutes
-
Goosen looked scared of tackling Kaino...
Blues are thie rown worst enemies
-
Sometimes sbw gets too obsessed with passing after he has made contact , when the better play can be passing before contact
-
some real messy play by both teams, Blues pushing shit, canes playing like they are chasing the game.
-
Pretty good game so far even though it got a bit messy.
BB probably deserved the card for offside playing the halfback while Blues in a good position but im sure the story all week will be about BB getting another card for a deliberate knock on.SBW with the nice break but he should have given it to Nanai. The rest of his play has been forgettable. Looks like he is trying to force it a bit.
Nanai is having a bloody good season. I said in the ABs centres thread that Rieko might get into the squad if NMS, Dagg or Naholo don't come back from injury in time. But maybe Nanai would be a bolter if a wing spot opens up. He offers the wing/fullback the selectors like but in an 11s body.
Duffy looking good again too.

Hmmm, after that replay, I'm not so sure that was worth a yellow.
Clear YC. You can't knock the ball out of a halfbacks hands like that, particularly when your defence is back-pedalling. Professional foul.

Did he knock the ball or was it Pulu's arm?
-
@ACT-Crusader What does it matter? He was offside and on the ground.

Doesn't matter. He can't play the halfback if he's involved in the ruck.
