Brumbies were always going to fuck this game up with a poor man's Bryn Gatland at first five.

As a Chiefs fan I object to that. I think Gatland is a poor mans Lolesio..

I think I just lost 5 years off of my life!

Fakatava ahead of both.

Wow.

Some sublime, and some of the worst rugby we’ve seen from the Blues this season.

1 or 100, a wins a win…. but that 2nd half was tough to watch.

[akan004]

Was the Blues player holding on? Brumbies possibly unlucky not to receive the penalty.

[mariner4life]

Score two unreal tries cutting the brumbies to bits

Spend the rest of the game kicking the ball away.

Fuck that was some duuuumb fucking rugby

Beauden Barrett is at the same time the most amazing and the shittest rugby player in the world.

Blues coaching staff need a kick up the arse. They almost blue that with terrible tactics. Playing Christie for the whole game says they don’t have confidence in Nock who played well in the game he started 2 weeks ago.

[Bones]

Beauds panicking under pressure in his own half again.

And Smith Fakatava and TJ in front of Weber😉

[Steven Harris]

Tell you what , another official on another day would have penalised the Blues for holding on ..

[akan004]

How dumb was Beauden for not kicking it deep into their half.

[Donsteppa]

Brumbies were never going to win that, the scoreboard flatters their inconsistencies and missed tackles.

Though I'll revise my view from last night, the Crusaders won't need to do any more than they did last night if the Blues play even half as bad as that second half again.

Loloseio went way too early there. The reality is a drop goal is low percentage. You are better off waiting to get a penalty advantage.

[Tim]

Christie and Barrett gave the ball back to the Brumbies again and again, and stopped attacking or using the forwards to hit it up. Poor tactics. Poor play.

Oh shit I thought the Brumbies player was on his feet and over the ball there, ref didn't have the balls to call the penalty

Ben O’Keeffe (Auckland) being a tad biased there you think?

The spinning around the side of the ruck wasn’t policed all night. Made the whole thing a shambles.

If you kick it deep they can easily run it back. You bomb to create contestable kicks.
