Berry rucks are always a mess.

BB pass was fwd wasn't?

This co commentator couldn’t be any more biased if he tried

Victor Meldrew

That was some defence by the Drua after that Blues breakout

I know. Not sure what game he's been watching if he thinks the Blues have not been the better team.

Nice deception by Sotutu - looked like he was going to drive, but pop pass to Fusitu'a on the hard line.

Rieko holding ball in wrong hand?

@Tim Greg Clark is the main caller is very good value

@Bones When tackled in corner.

No I know that, I just mean his seeming lack of rugby nous on attack.

Tim

Very good first half. Important to come out at half time and keep the pressure on.

Really solid half from the Blues ,Given the Drua very few opportunities and have shut them down when they have had the ball
IMO you can’t be too expansive against these guys especially if you make mistakes you then bring them into the game

Barrett's kicks to the corner from penalties end up closer to the 22. Poor.

His instinct for an aimless play with no idea if it's actually viable is as grating as Rieko's for only being able to look around or use his feet if he's standing still.

Hoss good on both sides of ball?!

Tim

LOL, right in front of the ref.

More globetrotter. But fuck me drua are dumb

Tim

Take the scrum under the posts.

Duluth

Funaki is the correct halfback for the Blues style

Tim

Nice work Ta'avao.

The difference their direct play has when there's a scrumhalf that clears the ball quickly.

He's out. Very poor tackle position there, poor bugger

antipodean

Patty will be off for a HIA after that.

Oh thought it was Angus, should put my glasses on lol

Tim

@Machpants Think it was Tuipulotu, maybe slipped into the tackle?

Tim

Fatigue affecting play now.

Gunner

That prop was penalised at the scrum because the field is cutting up. Bit rough.

Tim

@Gunner Seen a couple of defenders check their runs too, as slipping.

Berry asking the TMO if there was anything in a nothing tsckle

Tim

Ioane's defense has been really good today.

Has there ever been a game where the co commentator has talked up a losing team and suggested the winning team have all the luck
Sam Wykes your an idiot

Landers92

Taele. That boy is a serious talent

Drua nine makes Christie's clearance look like Smith's
