Who did Evans replace?

Blues scrum under pressure

Who is the defensive coach? This is disgraceful.

AJ Lam.

@African-Monkey Ah shit.

Good attack... but Blues D needs to be a lot better

@Mattasaurus Sure does!

Clear knock on, no try.

Tackling optional

Lucky.

Time for our kickers to start putting the ball out. Oir kick chase is atrocious.

Another scrum penalty won by the Blues.

Better scrum from the Blues

Blues scrum under so much pressure they win a penalty

With the tightheard boring in on the angle mind you….

And another useless kick from Beauden, complete with a shit line defence.

Tizano is basically playing like a 2nd 5

Force look pretty good in counter and broken play, but they have nothing in phase play.

Does he possess an invisibility cloak for kicking? How on earth does he get away with the majority of his kicks resulting in massive gains for the opposition, with no team mate or coach raising the issue?

First time I've seen BB called that.

And a hooker

I'm having trouble following these comments and the play / score reported elsewhere.
37 minutes in, 12-5 to Blues right?

Force rolling maul has been good.

make that 12-7

They're also very good at creating havoc at the ruck.

Very compact and organised.

Proctor would have put Evans in there

The fuck was that from Evans.

I'm well on board the NZ rugby nous is dead train.

12-7 at the half.

Flattering the Blues

Blues up but have a bit of work to do. Force probably had the better of the play.

I wonder if Leon MacDonald has pointed out a few defensive weaknesses in the Blues.

The coaching rejects of Mcdonald and Donnelly are showing they can produce results with a mismatched and scrappy squad... Maybe the Highlanders and Blues players were just stupid.

Or Vern Cotter ain't that great.

Really!?!?! Wait Scotland were world beaters with him as their coach?!

Force didn't do too much in the second half last week, so will be interesting to see if anything has changed...

Sir Vern Cotter. Always welcome back at the Bay in a heartbeat.

This Blues back 3 have been hopeless, not covering backfield, or chasing kicks.

There we go! Good hard direct running from our seniors.

Blues will take that start to the half.

There’s our AB 10

These bloody interviews are always ill timed
