I have a large and growing man-crush on Blackadder
Easily the best player on the park so far. Either he has a mini-McCaw cloak or he just seems to be at most of the breakdowns
-
That try shouldn't stand IMO. Clear case of prop(s) offside before ball is transferred creating obstruction.
-
Mo'unga and Blackadder looking good tonight, a shame to see Goodhue go off injured again.

He has a tremendous work rate. I'd like to see him with another 5-10kg on that frame.
As long as he doesn’t lose the pace - the TMO no-try was only close because he forced the mess, the try they scored he was the next set of hands if needed.
He’s a great combo of genuine menace but also quality link-play
Definitely a balance issue, but his engine is impressive. I think he'd carry a few extra kilos better than most.

Expecting to get shafted doesn’t seem to make getting shafted any easier…
Really poor crowd
-
@antipodean happens at pretty much every single maul, they are so poorly officiated.

24-3 at ht. Could be another hiding. Hope not though
It's already a hiding. Landers have enough problems with talent let alone when they don't have 5 of their best players
That imported five eighth is a bit average defensively.

Where is Gardiner ? He was Canterbury's best loose forward in the NPC and played well for the All Blacks XV. Is he injured ?
-
Very lacklustre start from the Landers in the 2nd half. Half hearted passing and catching.
That was a bit too easy but still a decent kick by Havili
-
This will be a cricket score fast if the Landers don’t wake up.

It’s Melbourne bro, one rugby game is what most can take. Plus the 6pm start doesn’t work great for getting into town.
Crowd seems to have got better at half time. Quite a few Rebels jerseys up my end of the field now.

How the flying fuck was that lineout not blown up as "not straight"? Whitelock had to take out outside his left shoulder ffs.

The crowd looks to be building on TV.

Followed up by a shit no look flick pass by Havili.
