    Keep waiting for the Blues to play well. But everything is off. Horrible season.

    Sullivan had been a bit rubbish tonight

    Worst game I’ve seen him play at 15

    @kev actually thought the Nock and Barrett combo looked slick when they both came on
    With Telea possibly gone for a couple of weeks I would push Reiko to the wing or the bench his confidence looks shot
    I would look at a Lam and Taele combo in the midfield
    I believe Choat needs to start with Segner and Hoskings
    Both Christie’s were very poor imo

    Any sort creativity comes out when they are chasing a game..
    Well done to the Reds clinical when they needed to be ..”

    @Steven-Harris yeah, would be worth seeing how Lam goes at 13. Certainly packs a bit more punch than ALB, although probably less of a voice in organisation.

    Cotter's frustration for the Segner try said it all. It can be so easy when the forwards do the basics well.

    @Bones Reiko on form alone shouldn’t be the ABs 13 ,possibly lucky to make a match day 23 unless the coaches do the sensible thing
    I know my thoughts won’t go down well with some on the TSF but it’s like watching the same thing each week and expecting a different result
    I even picked him 3 weeks in a row on Fantasy Rugby hoping he might fire
    Stupid me

    @Steven-Harris yeah I had him the first 3 weeks I think, hoping he'd finally get it nailed. Pretty disappointing.

    I don't think Rieko got the ball in space once?

    Absolute amateur hour from the Blues forwards - lineout picked to bits, scrum unable to execute at critical times.

    No, it wasn't the greatest officiating, but look at how smart the Reds were to hold them up over the line rather than trying to brute force a stoppage.

    Kiss and his team are smart.

    On skillset he should be a Test winger at best.

    Ryan's offside play where he managed to hold Eklund up was a penalty try.

    Doesn't exactly help himself in that regard.

    I did give up at half time as I was getting fucked off with the officiating.

    Just into second half and Ta'avao's try gets wiped out. Seriously?

    Genuine question: is the restriction on the number of phases you can go back no longer a thing?

    I'll continue to grumble through the rest of the game ...

    The TMO should just tell the ref straight away if a knock on, forward pass etc is missed.

    Now have cause to grumble at Segner's D hiding behind Beehre for McDermott's try.

    And a forensic examination of the early tackle on Sullivan wouldn't have gone amiss. He never had possession so why is he allowed to be tackled?

    Find myself grumpier at the officials than the players.

    @Bovidae 💯..seen so many games where a forward pass was missed by the attacking team and the team defending has been further stung by a try or YC infraction becomes a double whamy

    I can't watch any more games where Christie starts or Way officiates. Both are infuriating.

    Yup. He was also offside again soon after to prevent a try
