QF Blues v Highlanders
-
Blues need to dial back the 50:50 "passes" and be patient enough to build pressure. That alone will get them through against a spirited but limited opposition.
Shouldn't need a half time chat to sort that out. The leadership group on the field need to stand up.

If only BB could.kick....
Man that's so true, has he done anything but crap with the boot all half?

Starting to warm into the game after a nervous first 30. Still, the Highlanders are just hanging in there.

He'd be one of the worst field kicking 1st fives around.

Yep. It's not gonna suddenly change. It is what it is.

I'll take that as a landers fan....
Our scrum has been very good, even a man down.. That 20mins with 14 men may come back to haunt us.
Gregory saves his best 40mins for tonightBB needs to be told to put the boot away..
If the blues hold on to the ball they should be able to win by a comfortable margin. -

His short kick offs, kick passes, and chips ahead used to be sublime. Now he can't even do that

Yeah that last 10 of the 20 will take its toll midway into the 2nd I reckon.

Jeez rough call. Blues THP on his knees before the movement
That's exactly what caused the sudden twist. Rough call.
It’s why Nepo would be my starting TH against Oirish. Interesting to see if Romero coming on shores things up.

@pakman the blues best scrummaging locks are on the bench.
Not now, I would have brought him on at 10 mind. Tucker hadsbeen a disaster

Jesus the handling!
