Yeetyaah

@kruse holy fuck that's cringe.

Crusaders far too good. Again.

Cruised to a 16 point win.

Saders are just so well drilled and disciplined.
Who's their coach again?

Clearly you didn't pause long enough ....

Mo’unga has been superb in this game.

Bit of a blowout now. The Blues really need Fakatava. Can NZR enforce a cancellation of his contract with the Highlanders.

I think Christie and Nock are decent enough. They need to be selected though.

Fuck why Sevu, I hate that twat

Is there a winger you don't hate fella? Or just the Fijian born ones? 😬

Crusaders too good, Blues too dumb. Need to cut out the conservative selections.

Good to see where we really are tbh. Haven't read the thread but we're a mile off the Crusaders but will learn a lot from that. I think we'll be better next time against them but yeah, at this stage it's the Crusaders and then daylight in 2nd place. The margin was a fair reflection of the game tbf.

Most NZ coaches take the conservative route when it comes to selections. It's frustrating.

The blues bench was good. Faiane, Robinson, Cowley-Tuioti & Christie all need to start

What killed the game was the dumb mistakes

Tuipolutu should spend more time making an impression in the game than with bilingual post match speeches. My patience has ended with his inconsistent performances.

Geez how long was the interview? Sounds like a lengthy one.

I am a big fan of Patrick but I agree

I am officially on the Blackadder bandwagon. Best 6 in the country by a country mile at the moment. Suppose it helps when your forwards are always gaining momentum though.

Good game. shame the Blues never looked capable of winning with the Crusaders just too good

Blues made too many unforced errors. And lacked discipline
Black looked ordinary. He no where near AB level. And if the Blues want to compete for the title they need a diff 1st (I would prefer JGB). I guess Barrett is back next year but he's now well past his best. Maybe one of the young guns will step up
The Blues back row is not an AB back row

But Blues are getting close. Find a (much) better 1st 5 (a key). Stop the silly unforced error. A lot more discipline. Welcome a league super star next year. And a bit of luck and they might topple the Crusaders

Huh, can't say I recall seeing a ceremony for 100 super games before. Has this always been a thing?
