    I have just been watching this game giggling. It has been relaxing and easy viewing. I wish all NZ derby's could be like this.

    Quite a few of these Blues props don’t look like professional athletes.

    Can’t even get mad anymore. Tana has driven this team into the ground.

    @kirwan this game should always be a lock for the Highlanders. Looking at the man to man match ups. I would only take three Blues.

    Still on 35% possession at 63mins. Our team is so crap that’s better for the opposition to give it to us.

    umaga must go after this, pathetic effort from the blues.

    Listening to Tana and razor on radio sport this week was like chalk and cheese. Umaga clearly out of his depth at this level

    18 of the squad out injured, so sure. I’m more worried about the lack of any evidence of a game plan or any coaching at all.

    @southernmann saw the Blues Dev squad play about 3 x weeks ago,and there’s around 12 x players on the field tonite that were running around in that team on the day,tells you what sort of quality there is on the paddock not to mention the key leaders they are missing..
    This game was always a lock in for the Landers,was just case of how much.

    Yeah the jump from NPC to SR is big, he should have done a couple of assistant seasons first, I feel sorry for him, pushed too far too fast cos of his fame

    Commentators loving that passing play but I hated it. Low percentage play yet again.

    @kirwan It's passing you only get when you're 23 points down.

    Fuck you know it's bad when Sam Nock gets let on to the field.

    What I find amazing is the amount of talent in the Blues, sadly they can't put it together.

    Want to swap coaches and find out why?

    Yup, we've got to stop rushing former players into head coaching roles way before they are ready. Tana has been an unmitigated disaster similar to Hammett.

    I have a lot of empathy with the Blues fans, it was bloody tough going as a Canes fan for years, to the point that people jumped ship (you know who you are). And our record was nowhere near as bad!

    Hang in there, a coach worth his salt can turn your boys around. Can't happen soon enough.
