Well played Blues. Can I finally say see you next week?
You are allowed now
-
@KiwiMurph A lot of competition at lock.
Job done. Tougher than the score suggests, but we've fought hard and kept our composure.
We've had to fight very hard for our victories in Australia this year so we'll done to them.
Darry with another.

@KiwiMurph told you you’d be sweet.

@Victor-Meldrew Extra loose forward on attack.

Blues were pretty average most of the game, their line out worst I've seen for ages. But I think they are a fuck load fitter, and it is telling
To be fair the defensive lineout has been OK.

Yes good point. Scramble defence was excellent throughout, too

@Machpants I think we played about 15 mins of good rugby tonight.
Glad we've finished our Aussie leg. We play a lot better at home.

Similar to canes game, tho at opposite ends. All that was needed

Is the ball different in NZ or something? Aussie teams so much better at home.
The most boringly predictable fact of rugby is that home advantage counts for a lot.
Isn't that the case in most sports? Why all teams like being at home, usually have support behind you etc, and a feeling of comfort on usual field. I don't really know a sport where teams like being away from home.
