Amazing defence.

Fuck you Gardner. Fuck you Riccitelli

He came to challenge for the starting spot, what a fucking joke.

He can fuck off.

The Blues should have run away with this but that defence was epic. Good defence practice for the later games in the comp.

How does Riccitelli have a super contract?

[African Monkey]

@gt12 Send the dick back to the Canes.

[Tim]

Riccitelli really needs to learn to throw. Why not play Vikena?

[Canerbry]

@KiwiMurph the attack wasn't up to much

Surely now the penny has dropped for Leon.

[Kirwan]

Really impressive culture developing at the Blues. Even when things aren’t going well they refuse to give up. Tackling was incredible

Also true. But 26 phases 5 metres out from your own line is good.

Gardner should be dropped after that performance.

He won't be. He has his supporters which is unfathomable given his history. He's a veritable donkey.

The whole team was desperate to keep the game close, that look for a red card was cynical.

Nothing better than seeing kiwis win a match a still bang on about the ref.

You think he was good?

The result doesn’t matter if the ref ruins a game. Especially when we are struggling to get crowds in.

[KiwiMurph]

Akira the Stan Man of the Match.

[African Monkey]

@Nepia Yeah we're certainly getting challenged and having to show our resolve in a lot of these games.

Would like to see us to start playing our best side with 4 games left before the finals. Need to start building combos that'll take us forward, no need to be playing Segner at 8, changing the midfield every week etc.

Take the win and move on.

[African Monkey]

@KiwiMurph And deservedly so.

[Derpus]

@Kirwan nah, as expressed earlier I have plenty of reservations. But it certainly isn't unique to this game.

[KiwiMurph]

Given how many covid cases the Force have/had recently they really showed out - impressive

[African Monkey]

@KiwiMurph They're always a tough side to put away. They were the same last year as well and always fight hard despite their limited player pool, and yes, even more impressive with covid through their squad the week before.

[Daffy Jaffy]

Some tackling stats from the game. Blues made 237 tackles, the Force 111.
Blues top tacklers -
Papalii 29, Segner 24, RTS, Darry and Renata 14 (in his 23 minutes played), Tucker made 9 in his 10 mins played.
