Yeah. But Grey is a World Cup winner, and went to school in Queensland, so he's likely to be a twat.
But he was born in the lesser state. That shit is irreversible. Going to school in Qld wasn't nearly enough to knock the cnut out of him. Probably associated with fellow dirty border jumpers at school anyway.

@Rancid-Schnitzel Never ceases to amaze me how many Kiwis become dyed-in-the-wool Banana Benders after some time here.
Must be the sister-slamming
One of the journos said on twitter the crowd was 18k - expect that to be a season peak.

Only someone from the sick state would even think that. Keep your fantasies to yourself weirdo.
We embrace Qlders because we too know what it's like to have a bigger but retarded older brother

The crowd looked tiny.
I was flicking between this and the packed out pacific league tests at sunny Campbeltown.

Campbelltown has a capacity of 20k so although it was packed out there probably wasn't that many more people.

That first half performance was the smartest I have seen out of the Blues. Played to their strengths in the forwards, had the Blues going backwards and with no possession then cleaned up when the opportunity arrived. Ioane boys were immense and that was a pretty complete game from Akira. He did everything in his core duties and more. A few will be happy too that there was no lip from him either. Great away win.

I think it's against the rules for us to play a complete game. I was really hoping for a bonus point win after that first half.
I'd never seen Leighton Price before, so during the game, I was thinking, who the hell is that random middle aged man in the 19 jersey? He looked about 45, and moved like it too.

I heard the commentator say Collins leads the Blues in assisted line breaks. Is that because he's good at putting people into space or because everyone else is to busy making their own line breaks to assist other people making them?
I dunno what's up with his selection when there's a weapon like Nanai on the bench. Maybe he has organisation and communication skills that we don't see?

One real positive for the Blues is their defensive discipline and set piece which is something you don't typically associate with them. Their set piece has really stabilised in the last few weeks (the two young locks are going great in this area) and while they clocked off in the second half, defensively they have stopped giving away as many penalties and trusting their systems more.
They have also improved the last couple of weeks at generating turnovers whilst defending, something that they have struggled with last year and earlier this year. The loose forward trio plus the likes of Rieko in the backs are starting to generate turnovers which is obviously crucial - one it makes for a defensive win but it also provides broken play possession with the Blues thrive off (see Akira Ioane's try).

Pretty much sums it up for Pulu - amazing pick-up, awful pass.
