Good shift from Nock

KiwiMurph

Blues are gonna get absolutely thumped next week in Chch

Good from the Chiefs but I gotta say that’s some pretty ordinary blindside defence

Yeetyaah

Hahahaha Sinky the goat

Mr Fish

This one has the vibes of a last pre-season game. Suppose there is something on the line for the Blues.

booboo

Off to the GOM thread.

Score the try without the stupid dramatics.

KiwiMurph

Beehre needs to ditch the no look passes

He sucks at them

Yeetyaah

Enjoy your trip to Christchurch Blues

That gets the unusual bounce of the season , to get one bounce back towards the opposition is one thing but 2 , you just know it’s not your night

Mr Fish

2026 All Blacks bolter Liam Coombes-Fabling.

To be honest Crusaders would thump us next week regardless of the venue

Tim

@KiwiMurph Too good of a player for that shit.

We need to get rid of mugs like Yates.

Yeetyaah

Chiefs taking the piss at this point lmao

Tim

Blues defence without Papalii is feeble.

Landers92

The wheels have well and truly fallen off for the blues. I better not touch on the off field stuff again though…. lol

Mr Fish

Another killer bounce. Bit like the Drua v Reds game last night.

Even the bounce of the ball is conspiring against the Blues
This is getting ugly

Defensive coach Craig McGrath is a hype job.

Blues have lost their heart. Would be painful to watch if they weren't the Blues

What's the gossip?

Tim

@KiwiMurph Think we really miss Rieko Ioane there too. On field leadership seems to be a real problem.

Agreed with that

KiwiMurph

Never fear Blues BB will be back next week.....

Frank

Ah Kuoi could be a good 6

Tim

Some real duds recruited in the front row too.

Blues can’t live with a game played at this pace.

Team looks like they have quit

Good lord, I can imagine the meltdown if he came back and beat the Sadists.

3 weeks until first squad naming.

Mr Fish

Te Toiroa Tahuriorangi should've been given more opportunities over the last five years. Never clear why he fell so far down the pecking order for the Chiefs.

I posted a couple weeks back there were issues behind closed doors and got called out for it.

If you are watching this blues team tonight and you don’t think there’s truth to it, you’re only lying to yourself. The wheels have fallen off big time. Cotters face says it all.

@kev 💯 Vern Cotter getting found out with a limited game plan and underwhelming game drivers
That’s the real issue not who’s missing or whom they haven’t got

It's 2026 not 2016

@Landers92 Can you give a quick recap? This would have to be their worst performance. They could have secured a home play-off.
