Moana Pasifika v Blues

[Daffy Jaffy]

While it is good that they are showing MP respect with a strong team (after last seasons close finish) I would have liked to see Sheck, Rush, Grindlay and Tangitau involved in the 23 for this week. Or maybe 2 of them this week and 2 next week.

Referee: James Doleman

Assistant Referees: Jono Bredin, Fraser Hannon

Better Moana team they've put out this week with Savage a massive bonus at lineout time. Savea also makes a difference for them in the midfield with his ability to crash.

Glad to see the Blues put out a strong team too, and look forward to see Evans at the back.

[KiwiMurph]

Pleased to see Segner involved and Evans given a chance at 15. Likewise Vikena this season has shown some positive signs he might be maturing so good to see him start.

Nice that Rieko has bounced back - that was a nasty head knock

[Kirwan]

Slightly better weather and surface than the Drua game.

[Kirwan]

Ref is letting so much go. MP dived on a ball in the ruck.

[KiwiMurph]

Christie error.... fucking hell

[Kirwan]

Ofa with a poor start

[Canes4life]

Few errors already from both sides. Been a round of plenty of errors across these games. No excuses with the conditions.

[KiwiMurph]

@Canes4life Blues have been error prone all season really bar round 1. They grind away under Cotter but it's not especially pretty

[African Monkey]

@Kirwan Unlike the handling so far....

[Duluth]

..and now Evans

Looks like there’s space if we can catch

[Canes4life]

@Duluth the Blues look like the way better team, they just need to catch the ball.

[Kirwan]

Awesome from Clarke

[Kirwan]

Heem has been nice and direct

[Kirwan]

What a pass!

[Duluth]

Nice pass Heem. Hopefully he’s back in form.

[Kirwan]

Pretty enough for ya @KiwiMurph

[KiwiMurph]

Well done for the ref for continuing to play advantage there

You get the sense Heem could have just easily put that pass in row Z but it worked
