Bulls v Blues

@Snowy said in Bulls v Blues:
Black would probably have more chance of getting it in the vicinity of the posts than the other two have recently.
Plummer is 3/4 this year. That was his success %age for Auckland last year too
He's been kicking well in the warmups. His technical issues from last SR season where the ball would die mid flight appear to be behind him
Perofeta has been awful
I expect Black to be the kicker though

Yeah. I know he's not as bad has been made out, but tend to remember the misses rather than the hits (and I was also suggesting that it would be Black).
Agree about Perofeta, terrible.

Is this just resting Faiane then? Thought he was one of the blues best last week.
Sounds like its a combination of resting Faiane, needing more kicking options at altitude and giving Plummer an opportunity at 12 where he has played a lot of rugby growing up.

Perofeta seems better from out wide but anything from in front or even 10m either side of the posts appears near impossible for him
That's what makes it appear even worse - missing the very getable ones.
I find it easier for my mental health to assume he's going to miss every kick.

MacDonald confirmed Black, the most accurate of the Blues’ goalkickers, would get the kicking duties.
Three for the price of one: Is this the playmaker combination that can get the Blues back on track?
The Blues created only one clear chance in their defeat to the Crusaders – and scored from it through skipper and lock Patrick Tuipulotu. Now, in a major reshuffle of his backline, Leon MacDonald has named three playmakers in a bid to unlock the Bulls' defence

Shoulder charge? Where was the direct contact?
Looked like direct contact shoulder to head to me - red coming up?
