Tim

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.

KiwiMurph

Wrampling has been awful.

Hook him

Beauden.

Tim

Wrampling. Should have been hooked at half time.

Bones

Is Barnes on for Paps? Geez

KiwiMurph

You can stick a fork in the Blues tonight

They are done

Tim

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

Bones

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

KiwiMurph

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

Bones

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

KiwiMurph

Way just refusing to play advantage?

Canes4life

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?

KiwiMurph

Finally a dumb play by the Tahs

Bones

What a disgusting pass

Tim

Good try. Should have been a penalty advantage for pulling down the maul.

KiwiMurph

Funaki managed that maul play very well

antipodean

Honestly - how are the Blues still in this?

Bones

How do you bring on Spencer and leave BB on?

Tim

Barrett. That was a shocker.

Canes4life

Potter was full of magic last year in Super, he’s the completely opposite player this year.

He was rubbish for the Wallabies

Bones

Tahs tiring after many failed efforts in that first half, could see a turnaround in this game if they go back to excluding BB

So much more variation in the tahs game compared to the Blues

Tim

Great tackle from Clarke. Not a good kick from Funaki.

Yeah but in Super he had a great season. Couldn’t transfer that to the Wallabies.

Bones

Funaki finally coming back into form.
