Blues v Highlanders

[mariner4life]

Watching Sullivan kick like this and I'm now thinking it's not beaudens fault, it's MacDonald's

Look out 2024 ABs

@Gunner That was a shocking miss from the ref.

[Damo]

Damn. Try for the good guys there and we're right back in it against the evil empire.

[African Monkey]

@Mattasaurus Fair enough.

Lol the Landers aren't out of this just yet.

[Mattasaurus]

Great injection from Reiko

[Gunner]

Blues opening Highlanders up again, comes to nothing via a knock on again.

Need to be more patient.

Still so rough on some basic stuff eh, really annoying. That was just a simple hip pop and he fucked it.

I've been pointing out it's clearly a tactic for weeks. If it's not Ronald Leon as coach, it's Daniel. Either way it's shit.

Pity about the pass 😀

[Gunner]

Scrums are such a messy shit fight both ways, any ball coming back in utter rubbish. Wish the 9’s would notice this and just say right fluffybunnies, balls coming in and out quick smart.

I’m not watching but is this the kick to fake space thing the ABs tried for years being rehashed? Or something worse?

[mariner4life]

Last game at Eden Park?

I'm sad

[Machpants]

Jeez nock speed of clearing, next minute telea try. Difference night and day

[Bones]

How about we swap positions for Telea and Rieko.

[African Monkey]

Nock has made a difference since coming on.

[Victor Meldrew]

Perfect positioning from Telea

[ARHS]

Fascinating game. Great display of poor skills all round. And ref seems lenient on a lot of borderline infringements to let it flow more.
How does Robinson get away with his obstructions at the breakdown?

At least Telea and Harmon are playing to keep fans awake.

They're kicking to try preventing the defence from coming forward on the hinge and widen the defence to create space. But they do it aimlessly, without clear chase pressure and inaccurately.

[mariner4life]

Sniffing around the ruck, if he's not the starting AB 14 thrn the fucking selectors can get fucked

[African Monkey]

No try.
