    How can AB players be so bad at exits?

    Aversion therapy?

    RM's kicking may be shit, but his D is bloody good.

    As is his covering across the field

    Is there any element of Beauden's game where skill execution isn't an issue?

    Blues still don’t have a lineout.

    LOL, Tom Christie came out of the ruck and tried to tussle with his own player.

    I worry about Leon. Surely you sub Akira on as an extra lineout option

    Huge he might be but you aren't going anywhere in this game without a lineout

    While we're bagging Berry it seems halfbacks are now fair game at the back of rucks.

    Bloody entertaining game so far. Not sure Berry has got the scrum calls right.. felt the Blues were hard done by on a couple.

    Blues have made a million tackles and it may come to haunt them later in the game.

    Saders lineout has been excellent, surprised Blues haven't thrown Paps or Sotutu up.

    some pretty poor kicking from both teams (the normal tripe from BB)

    Going to be an interesting 2nd half, game wide open

    Williams, Grace, Z Sullivan, Choat all making pretty good cases for selection.

    The Darry injury makes it hard to make an early loose forward sub.

    So you sit on your hands whilst your lineout gets destroyed?

    Make a brave decision.

    Reds subbed their whole front row after 37 mins last night.

    Front rowers can come back on

    An injury from 4-8 would result in Eklund playing as a loosie if you use up that sub. It’s a huge risk

    You might be right but there are two locks out there. Should be enough to win a lineout. Teams should also train for these circumstances - over a season you are not always going to have your best options out there.
