<p>Wtf. If thats the case why dont that park themselves in the backline?</p> -

<p>I think he's been driven up, hence no yellow</p>

<p>If that was the case then the Tahs should be penalised.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I think it's highly inconsistent reffing.</p> -
<p>that last scrum, no way was Kaino or Gibson assisting in the push.</p>

I remember a number of you lads giving out big-time about about Piers Francis pre-season, but he's been OK.<br><br>
Nanai made that though.</p></blockquote>
<br>
I'll put my hand up - he's been good and has turned out well.<br><br>
On the other hand, I still don't like the balance with him at 12 - particularly on D.<br><br>
He looks more and more comfortable at this level but still looks like a 10 to me. -
How is Luatua not an All Black?
-
<p>these last 2 weeks Lutua has been absolutely outstanding</p>

Bad loosies maybe, good ones help a lot -
Hoopah has really gone missing..just out muscled
-
<p>tahs havent played very smart really.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>have to agree to disagree, see plenty of very good loosies, particularly 7's hanging on by the slightest of grips on the side of the scrum.</p> -
<p>Yeah, Luatua has to be pushing to get back into the ABs.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'd say you Blues fans would be much happier for the next season - good recruits, and Tana seems to have the team heading in the right direction.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Lions spots to play for too.</p> -
Both these teams sorely missing a quality passer in the 9 jersey
-
<p>some pretty messy play by Blues, but tahs with some good movement to score</p>

To be fair he needed to pick his game up and he has.</p></blockquote>

He's been excellent all season. <br><br>
Good try by the waratahs.
