Jaguares vs Blues

Teams with the best coaches aren't dumb. Coincidence?

Ain’t that the truth! We did more than enough to win that game, but just couldn’t finish any of the pressure

@KiwiMurph Gotta say as a Chiefs fan I know how you feel this season

So you'd suggest they're coached to make dumb decisions?
I don’t know, if so that last scrum was a perfectly executed set piece.

@rotated what was the score

They can identify and recruit smarter players?

@Cyclops I don’t think coaching at school level has got anything to do with it..many kids that have schooled in Auckland have gone on to cut careers in other provinces or other franchises...
It’s about trusting in your systems ,taking a tackle and relying on the cleaners to their roles..,not off loading a pass when not required..calm heads and strong on field leadership provides that.. -
lack of concentration is a bit of an issue, given you can destroy one scrum then lose another like that.
Plenty of poor decisions out there, too many 50-50 balls being thrown, some came off but didnt really gain much, and others didnt come off and lost possession.

Yip. By rights you guys should have won that game. Amazing how little cohesion you had in attack.

@KiwiMurph said in Jaguares vs Blues:
One thing I was impressed by - Akira's defence. He has also developed his passing game this year. AB coaches would be pleased.
Yeah, that try saver on the line was huge. Would have liked to see him run from the back of at least one of those scrums.

Three games, three different centre pairings. Not helping.

Tom Roibinson has been a positive though.
And surely Moulds has to start over Parsons now. -
@taniwharugby absolutely..you could in the main never fault the effort..but there were little moments in that game that killed the Blues..the try when the Hosts were down to 14 from a disorganisation clearance before halftime..
When they actually showed some desperation in the final 10,it was actually the best they looked in terms of ball handling in the whole game..
On saying all that..this competition apart from the Saders going on the merry way is some of the results really throwing the picks out the window. -

And surely Moulds has to start over Parsons now.Parson threw a good lineout and made his offensive tackle for the year. Three rounds in and he's already hit his KPIs.

Quite possibly. But the best coaches also come up with game plans that suit their players. I have no idea if this is the problem with Blues though.
