Yeah if the Blues win all their games without bonus points, they will make the playoffs. Really need a penalty to finish the Bulls off.

The Bulls backline was five metres offside at that scrum. How did Fraser not notice?

Chris

@Canes4life 38 points you reckon for cut off points to finals

KiwiMurph

Very good game young Clarke. Well done.

Canes4life

@Chris might be cutting it fine but it will depend on other results. I thought the Blues were on 28 points, not 26. So yes, maybe they do need a bonus point or two.

Ruru need to just pass the flipping ball, he mucks around so much he's always under pressure

Poor game management anyway from the Blues. They went wide, Ruru almost lost it and then Reiko got forced into touch. Haven't shut this one down at all.

KiwiMurph

Ruru a better 2nd 40.

Stargazer

Faiane has had a mare tonight.

Donsteppa

Missed Nonu's experience in defence there.

Jailbreak7

Fark me I couldn't take another draw - that was bloody awful d from the Blues

African Monkey

@hydro11 And it looks like it's hurt us and our season goes with it.

KiwiMurph

Awful play Blues all around.

Canes4life

Blues season could be over now.

Still plenty of time to lose.

Jailbreak7

Wonder if maybe time to pull out the droppie

Tim

Ruru's shit kicking costs us again.

Jailbreak7

Whew - saved by the ref

Stargazer

Both props going for 80 minutes again.

Jailbreak7

THIS is where Akira needs to shine

Canes4life

Piss poor game management by the Blues. Really has been a hard watch this one.

Canes4life

Massive kick coming. Will Black be the savior?

African Monkey

Now's a good time for Plummer to answer his critics as a goalkicker.

Donsteppa

Blues look much better when playing quick ball/the halfback doesn't take all week to clear it.

Gunner

The shit the Bulls get away with at the ruck....

Poor option taking the droppie from so far out, we’re under advantage they should have had a crack at a try. This is no easy kick.

Chris

So that’s a high tackle Fraser you idiot and the one on Mounga wasn’t last week clown

Bulls so offside throughout that

Tim

@Jailbreak7 Did a big clean out and followed up with a strong carry.

KiwiMurph

Lol neither team deserved to win.

African Monkey

Aaaaannnnd he misses.

Donsteppa

Thought the lineout was a safer option, but hindsight is a wonderful thing.

The entire game. How did the referee and his ARs not notice? That sort of disgraceful incompetence ruins games.

Tim

Inability to exit 22 cost them again. Really poor ending.

taniwharugby

surely more draws this year than any before?
