Despite the professional foul they score.

Superb finish to come away with winning bonus point after that first half.

Tahs will be ruing all those missed chances.

Funaki and Lam were the picks for me Behree not far behind
Possibly Funaki’s best in a Blues jersey
Superb win after looking a beaten team after the first 40

Throw in Barnes too he's been very good

Funaki man of the match

Tim

Fucking awful first half.

Was just 27 to 3 in the 2nd half?

What did Pat Lam do while an AB that has seemingly led to all Lams being banned from the ABs.

his whole family were stitched up and Lam-inated? Or maybe it was just a process of e-Lamination.

Blues don't win if Funaki doesn't come on.

@KiwiMurph Insane that he was not an AB.

Especially when you consider how many tests ALB has played.

yes I couldn't see why they were playing an out of form, yellowcarding, recently injured ALB over Lam...maybe I was not alone. Plays more positions than ALB too...

@KiwiMurph I believe he’s looking to come North either Auckland or Northland

I would rest Dalton next week if he’s got an injury

Papalii said in his after-match interview that he's been nursing an injury the last few weeks and was struggling when he came off.

Explains why he was seemingly quiet, still an impressive tackle count.

@Bones Yeah, he said something like: "I was doing more harm than good being out there."

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

It's a straightforward case of reverse erythristic discrimination...
