Messy work from the Blues
Tuitupou gets the MP try. Strange that he's drifted out of the Blues/Auckland system
Blues 28-14 at HT
MP are very unstructured. Their ad lib rugby is meaning a lot of mistakes and some missed tries. Tuitupou does look classy.
Unstructured is working for MP now
Blues 35-26
MP knock on reaching out for a try
..and then held up over the line
Good passing and support play for that Blues try.
42-26
Game should be safe now but MP gave them a fright in that second half. Blues got too loose and gave away easy turnovers
The Blues were soft around the fringes of the rucks as MP exploited that. I never thought the Blues would lose.
Just to highlight how fluid these teams can be, Riki Ruben, who was one of the Blues best today, was playing for MP at this tournament last year.
