[number9]

That was from the side, the ball was not out. O'Keefe has been terrible.

Why wasn't Whitelock penalised for diving on the ball?

I'm guessing because the ruck was over when Ofa picked it up and then placed it on the ground for anyone else?

[chimoaus]

This young Crusaders front row look the goods.

[Canes4life]

How damaging will this be to the Blues moving forward?

@Tim has Barrett played himself into the ABs bench with tonight's performance?

Bring back DMac!!!

[Steven Harris]

@Frye not much he could do the ball does an absolute leg break ..damage was done at the back of the ruck by Ofa

Awful from Nock , but the damage was done by Ofa

Bounce of rugby ball. Damage done by Coach. Wheels have fallen off in last couple of weeks as the Blues have stopped playing rugby.

[Mattasaurus]

Too many of the Blues ABs simply haven't stood up when it counted.

@Canes4life This is a very 2015 Canes esc Choke!

[Tim]

@Canes4life they'll learn a fuckload from it. And look for a better halfback

Very strange play by Ofa. Just picked it up stood there and then put it between his legs.

All and all I just can’t see us winning the World Cup until Razor is in charge.

Blues decision making has been terrible. Nock went missing several times. Awful play.

Nock is terrible. Always has been

The problem is the lineout though

10 lineouts lost

9/19 vs 11/11. An extra possession every 8mins. That’s the match

Would like to think they’ll learn from it and get better.

[chimoaus]

Razor still needs overseas experience?

[Winger]

Blues have been poor. Disappointing. I didn't expect them to win but hoped for a close contest

[taniwharugby]

@Tim odd too, Nock saw what was going on too, so was well onto it.and still made a hash of it

[No Quarter]

That's the most disappointing part of the match. Looking like the Cantablacks for test 1 v Ireland and I'm not sure I'd blame the coaches if that's what they do..

[Tim]

@Steven-Harris why the fuck wasn't nock at the back of the ruck? He is terrible.
