<p>all the Blues loosies are playing wide (look at where Kaino was to score and where Luatua is getting so many metres) watch how they get up form a ruck and head the opposite way to the rest of the forwards, looks a deliberate tactic, esp as they did it in the Baabaas game a couple of weeks ago too</p>

<p>But not at a maul from a lineout. Perhaps broken play.</p> -
<p>I Musta been watching the wrong person as he stood up and fell back.</p>

<p>again, dunno, I think as it is happening often, it is a deliberate tactic to get him outwide, if not, then maybe his Captain and Coach havent noticed yet to tell him not to do it?</p> -

And the Tahs! -
<p>twist that knife Blues...good opportunity for a YC</p>

<p>Duffie looks a different player to previous weeks. Playing with real confidence and running with a bit of oomph.</p>
-
<p>ouch that looked sore for Fardy.</p>
-
Fardy caught on the jaw which often means lights out. Precisely where a boxer will try and hit you. Ouch.
-
<p>Geez Fardy went down like a sack of spuds. Tough night for him</p>
-
<p>Geez Scott Fardy has copped some punishment in this match. Great stuff so far Blues, keep it going!</p>

<p>Looks like New Zealand has their own Wayne Barnes. This bloke has no idea wtf is going on.</p>

<p>Tana's whole coaching career gets rated on one half of a game and Duffie is rated a player of promise on one half of a game after being cabbage all season.</p>

<p>You're an interesting study hurricane. ;)</p> -

<p>Yep, the last few years, every time I saw his name on the ref appointments sheet for the ITM Cup, I thought 'Oh shit, he's going to fuck up again.' The Magpies have lost a couple of games because of him. They should have kept him in Wellington club rugby ... or not even that.</p>
