Sheesh, settle down TJ, the Highlanders aren't going over the top at Gallipoli.

Yep. Dude used to be a good Reunion host but is tiresome when commentating Blues games - it would be like me commentating Crusaders games.

I still don't get the TJ blues thing. I don't see it at all. I feel like it maybe used to happen and now it's just true because it's repeated so often...

Hear it, hear it man.

I'm just glad they don't show the commentators when he's commentating a Crusaders game. Really wouldn't want to see that.

Yeah but hear what?

Pitch, tone, squealing when the opposition to the Blues do something slightly good , etc etc.

You mean exactly what he does when the blues do something slightly good?

@Kiwiwomble just replying to Bones.

This means Blues have a winning record this year vs Chiefs, Canes and Highlanders.

A couple of years ago Blues would be happy with a single combined win against those teams!

[number9]

Bloody good game, the refs are useless.

Consistent away wins is confusing

Yeah, unhappy to watch an AB milk a penalty with a Hollywood. Poor.

I know, thought Ofa was better than that.

Very droll. We don’t want rugby to end up like soccer, so should have been play on when Smith pretended to trip.

He's much less effusive for the Blues, fair enough if you don't notice it, lots of the rest of us do ... I notice it in Chiefs games.

The worst bit is it was play on and wouldn't have been a penalty. It's only because the Blues scored an intercept try and the crowd booed that it even became one.

[Nepia]

Akira named MOTM.

Well then the blues shouldn't push so hard in scrums. Milking penalties like that, atrocious and unfair!

[Steven Harris]

I would like to see the Blues make a play for Peter Umaga Jensen given the Canes have Billy Proctor locked up for another 3 years..would like to see another big midfielder in the mix..

Akira Ioane the deserving winner of MVP today.

He was awesome.

It's not the Blues fault that they're aren't good enough actors to make the Highlanders look at least semi competent at scrummaging

I know he's playing tight, but Akira's biggest work on is still link play.

Well the other teams have done a fairly good job at it. Obviously blues heavily influenced by Auckland cheating ways.

That's interesting, I hadn't noticed that lacking - but it used to pretty much be his forte shortly after switching from 7s.
