Loving Nock with the proper Maori halfback look

@brodean said in Chiefs v Blues:

Quite fascinated to see how we go with Segner as captain. As good as he has been playing he just doesn't have the tackle workrate of Papali'i. (Not many players do tbf)

Papali'i is the key to the Blues defence. He is close to the top of the those stats and rucks year in year out across Super Rugby.

Players waiting to pilfer all the time usually aren't making the same amount of tackles.

We've won 40% of games this year when Segner is playing openside and 75% when Papali'i has been playing openside.

It's a positive that Barnes is being partnered with Segner. Barnes is close to Papali'i in tackle work rate and 2nd of the loose forwards in this facet. Barnes also has the highest amount of dominant tackles for the Blues.

Looking forward to seeing how this trio with Wrampling go again together. This combo worked well defensively against the Drua.

Stats can say anything. The only team the Blues have lost to this season with BB starting is the Canes.

I rest my case.

Exit you fucking speds

That was a dodgy as turnover by Ahki

That should have been a penalty on the Segner turnover Finau was holding on for dear life

You forget how hodge podge this Chiefs backline is until they pass the ball through the hands. No leaders at all in there.

Blues dont have enough clinical edge this year

Should have way more points than 7 in this game

Could be headed into the playoffs on the back of two losses. Not great for momentum

You are down 7 points. Settle down.

Great kick Jacomb. Like that from him

Can't help but think Jacomb should have been a second five.

I would pull Mullan if he can’t get his throwing in right now..it’s killing the visitors

Beehre has been busy, good to see

Why?

Blues cynical as fuck at ruck time not being pinged

@Steven-Harris no excuse for a fulltime professional to be poor at his core role...shame cos when fit, the rest of his game is good

Dont think anyone in Chiefs country will be too worried about this result whatever happens. Dead rubber for the Chiefs which is why they've thrown out the b-team.

On replay Cortez just had tits for hands

Blues have had 4-5 entries into the 22 and only scored once. In a big game they need to convert more
