Blues are going to run out of time.

It's the old story: 2, 9, 13, 15.

12, 5, 11.

Robinson has been fucken awesome. If people are talking bolters...

[Stargazer]

Damn, Sharks score and get the bonus point.

Time to watch the only team that matches the Blues shambolics - France.

They're leading...

[number9]

Really what the hell were the backs doing.

[antipodean]

Starting to wonder if Tana was the problem...

[number9]

The midfield is where we have problems.

[Tim]

This team is going to make me an alcoholic.

[KiwiMurph]

Hahaha that was so Blues

[Tim]

@antipodean Can't win the close ones with holes in the squad. This isn't MacDonald's squad.

It's been a problem since 2011 at least. Year after year.

[Tim]

Awful weekend for everyone except the Crusaders.

Its not Leon's squad.

Tana was one of the problems; some of the players are simply not up to it, either. It will take some time to fix things; Blues fans should give the new coaches some time.

[Stargazer]

@Tim The Landers won, too. Just.

[KiwiMurph]

@Stargazer Agreed. Hey this result was an improvement on leaking 60 on Eden Park to these guys last year!

[antipodean]

It might not be Leon's squad, but there's no clear patterns. No obvious clarity in the player's decision making let alone improvement in execution.

The current coaching staff have this year as a gimme.

[Tanifulla]

@Bones but for how long?

edit: their try was absolutely amazing! funny what happens when you actually select a fullback in the team!

[Rebound]

This ref is so crap just another example of shit reffing all around. The last try. How is that not a penalty at the scrum. The blues put in a shunt sharks move backwards and the collapse the scrum. Yet it's okay on. Utter shit. And the tmo call after the sharks made two clean breaks where number 2 held back defenders creating the gaps is just grating. I mean why bother. Just give the home team the points and don't play the game

Robinson stepped up in the second half when we started to compete at breakdown. Had a quiet 1st half.

[ShadowTrooper]

@number9 He did that last week as well. Quiet 1st half, really stepped it up in the 2nd.
