That was a shithouse half of rugby. Blues taking the game for granted.

@Tim said in Waratahs v Blues:

@Bones The extreme professionalism of Super Rugby broadcasting.

A hilarious night of fuckaboutery all round.

Blues don't want the ball, tahs don't want tries, officials don't want knowledge of rugby and production just hitting random buttons.

No leadership from 9 and 10.

How have the tahs replaced their ginge fullback with an identical ginge fullback

They look like they dont want to be there.

@KiwiMurph They were committed on defence, but seemed clueless otherwise.

To be fair, I hope Vern is sticking with last week's gameplan of BB being completely ignored and only used for goal kicking and kick receipt.

Committed on scramble but not enough pressure

Tahs only up by nine at half time and should be out of sight. That's with the Blues having no ball in the half and utterly unconnected in defence in the midfield.

Blues need to ring the bench changes (except hooker and lock).

Wrampling is a player for next year. Get Barnes on.

Sotutu has been hitting on defence this year.

Jack Debreczini running the cutter well for the tahs ..really exposing the Blues with late passes outside and in

Can Carlos go into the dressing room and give these clowns a serve?

When he's on he's fucking good eh, but for a lack of consistency he could have been great for Aussie. Real shades of Larkham.

Matenga is not super rugby quality. Haven’t seen a player look that gassed since Taniela Tupou

Tahs showing what can happen when your intent is to keep ball in hand and attack and not default to kicking

He's had the last 20 to 25 so far I guess. Getting done tonight.

Is he son of Sam from Ta$man way?

Rugbypass mid-game stats are probably BS, but they have Papalii on 18 tackles and Darry on 14.

Game reminds me of NZ rugby in recent years, a complete inability to exit our half.

I feel there's a common denominator in both.

Wrampling has been awful.

Hook him

Beauden.

Wrampling. Should have been hooked at half time.

Is Barnes on for Paps? Geez

You can stick a fork in the Blues tonight

They are done

@Bones Don't understand that unless it's an injury?

This Harvey kid could be a good cheap pickup in FR after next week if he sticks around.

That kick from BB

This is legit the worst performance of the Cotter era

Very talented young player. Looks comfortable already back there in 15. One to watch for sure

Fuck me, how did the blues have zero attacking shape after that Vai break?

Way just refusing to play advantage?

Fuck if we are relying on Beauden to win us a WC next year we are fucked. He’s cooked.

Aren't we relying on Mounga?

Finally a dumb play by the Tahs

Barrett is a punchline

What a disgusting pass

@Bones being schooled by JD

What was that?
