@98blueandgold Still tries hard, but not the same impact, probably not speed either. Really hope he's just trying to peak for the WC.
Or it could be his dramatic Rodders/JC decline.

Have to take that halftime score. Very error-ridden half.
The positives:
- Defensive structure is good even if we've missed a few one-on-one tackles.
- Beauden. What. A. Player. Great at 10 last week and fantastic at the back tonight. Great to have him hitting form in a big year.
The negatives:
Too many to list. Very concerning that Mo'unga is struggling when the pack isn't dominating. He gets an easy ride at the Saders but this isn't the first time he's been like a deer in the headlights when the team is on the back foot. Annoying as I'd love to see Beauden at 15 with the extra space but we may just need him at 10.Harsh to single him out though when the whole team has been pretty cake. Ben Smith started very poorly last year as well but then got his act together, hopefully he does the same this year but age is not on his side.
Looking for a much more disciplined 2nd half.

Our Hurricane-Crusader-Blue-Crusader-Highlander-Blue-Hurricane backline as cohesive as anything

9 phases and going backwards like an Italian tank ?

God damn you add some colour to otherwise dour posts my son.
