One on one Mo'unga is a liability.
Huge issue at international level when you can design plays to isolate him (such as that).
I think he could be a real weapon for us off the bench, but too many deficiencies to be an effective starting 10.
-
Crusaders finished with a big enough rest to get instructions from the coaching staff and lower the heart rates?
-
Blues are much better with ball in hand.
-
Coach killer, what a fuckwit
-
Chch sly cheating has been called out by ref and as a result unable to slow Blues ball.
-
Perofeta bounced back quickly, excellent to see that.
-
Papalii's defence has been huge.
-
Gallagher has a very ugly style of ducking his head into the tackle. Might work to get penalties I guess, but someone needs to coach it out of him.
-
Yellow card
-
Gotta say Paps is quite the specimen.
-
Without Moody the Saders scrum looks dodgy
-
More punishment of the cynical piston wristed gibbons, awesome
-
-
Have a rest David

Fucken hell, even getting carded like other teams would! What's going on?

I don't think that was deserved. He had his hand on the ball as he made the tackle and still had his hands on the ball when he went to ground. It's a penalty, but shouldn't be a yellow.
-
Jesus maybe Beaudy should kick, fucking shite
-
@tim probably his best game this year so far

Under pressure like that it's a clear yellow card.
-
Surely Blues can’t lose from here…
-
How good has Josh Goodhue been this year..?, has come out of the shadow of Patty T in big way ..was outstanding for the Taniwha last year and has just continued that form , great to see him repaying this team .
-
Incredible refereeing performance so far. The Blues are doing well also.
-
FFS Perofeta keeps his hand down.
Not the new Cruden.

Nope, a penalty like that, hot on attack. Cynical and yellow, correct call
-
Man that's some costly misses

You should think of taking up reffing, NZR would fast track you.

Weak card. If that was given the other way around the Fern would be spitting tacks.
But very good first half from the Blues. They look the better side. Smothering the Crusaders and making ground with comparative ease.

Yeah nah. Cards like that are dished out most weeks to other teams, it's only odd because it's the crusaders.
-
Papali'i is having some game. Best on the field.
Enjoying the game so far. Feels like a Test match.
-
You won't see a clearer cynical penalty to stop a potential try.
Yellow card every day, week, year, decade, and century.

Surely the margin is too small to deter the mighty Saders?
-
Blues forwards are dominating the Saders up front, lineout ball needs a lot more work only problem with Kurt's game.

Unsurprising first half given Blues were/are favourites.

What was he supposed to do? Leave his hand where it was? Not sure that was physically possible.

Perofeta has been hugely damaging, evading Saders with his footwork. But not sealing the deal.

Crusaders were five points favourites at the TAB, and were tipped by almost everyone in the Fern Tipping Competition.

Chch needs some mauls, and fast!
