If the Blues hadn’t played their B team they could be up by 60
Just wish it was leveled up a bit with a red card after a massive cheap shot

Yeah that should not have been missed shocker.

Clarke is a different player this season. Fitter, more focussed and skilful

Withy. Tavatavanawai as usual.

I really hope Thomas Umaga Jenson can come back next season fit and get no further injuries(big ask I know) because we really don’t have any answers in the 12 jersey. Has to be the top priority when it comes to recruitment this off season.
Blues and canes have been running out their second string midfields recently and they are light years above 70% of the rest of the competition. Really need to be able to try our best to grab one of those players because from what we’ve seen, our roster currently doesn’t have that answer.

@Landers92 I'd target the 12 that played for us tonight Corey Evans. He's more than good enough to be a regular Super Rugby starter.

Hes a great example. Peter Umaga Jenson and Riley Higgins sit behind Jordy and Proctor, surely they would love to be a starter elsewhere and would no doubt be one of the first picked on the team sheet week in week out if they shifted down south(before anyone has a go, i have no idea about their contract situations, just using them as an example).

Ah well that certainly put a stop to my unfound confidence against B lues. Still seeing some good growth from several players, and learning things about others. I'd like to see Stodart and Broughton swap. Fakatava just needs to take a chill pill. He does so much right and so many things poorly. Jack Taylor after a big off-season in the gym will be an explosive beast. Te Hiwi's decision making is poor. Hurley is very brave, but not sure it outweighs being tiny. He dedication to chasing Clarke was awesome. Withy is showing seven is his spot. I like Haig a lot, he just seems to get noticed by the ref a lot. Not sure what he is doing is any worse than most other loosies. Ma'u will have tighthead next year, hasn't quite stepped up like we may have hoped.
