Sloppy game from both sides so far.

[Steven Harris]

Did you not kick enough last week Otere..?

Blues look ragged.

[KiwiMurph]

How do people defend Ruru? His handling is abysmal.

[Machpants]

Havili is looking good, but too similar to ALB for ABs? Not that it matters, Italy and Fiji

[Steven Harris]

@kiwimurph I hear you , problem is the coaches don’t ..

I’m not a fan, but the ruck security isn’t great. It’s pretty messy ball out there.

I think he can do a good job off the bench in a messy game but there is no way he should be starting

[gt12]

The Blues are doing OK when they use their big runners, I’m not sure why they aren’t trying to work around the ruck a bit more, rather than midfield bombs.

[KiwiMurph]

Blues attack is really shit.

[Steven Harris]

@gt12 problem is , they have field position, 2 scoring chances and a missed penalty..opportunities taken (0)

That one was them being stupid by not working around the ruck, pick n go’s are stupid against the Saders.

Tamati, thanks, such insight

Exactly. Problem is Blues backs are bad.

[Steven Harris]

@gt12 the Crusaders will take their opportunities and scoreboard pressure will do the rest

[ACT Crusader]

Caleb looked very indecisive there and then went in too upright.

Yeah it’s as if they don’t want to get it out to them.

[KiwiMurph]

Perofeta never has his position under threat.

Great.....

It’s pretty strange, the space is one out with the inside option. Putting big runners off Black with An inside option would give the backs a bit more of a chance.

WTF was that Perofeta?
