Bloos have no one to challenge on the floor. No chance of a turnover.

Leon should’ve put Carter on the bench. DC coming on with 10 to go and sealing a Blues win would have scarred some of the Village of the Damned for life.

Taking Black off has screwed all their momentum and let the Saders in.

Pretty much nothing in this game. How many times has he touched the ball in this half?

Saders just squeezed the life out of the blues in the last 20min if each half.

Blues held on a lot longer than usual and need to take heart from that to a degree.

Second half kicking duel has been one sided

How come people say you are a Fiji support but you are in the All Blacks club?

And how do you join those anyway?

Fun to see the Goodhue twins having a laugh afterwards. Jack, follow your heart north before it’s too late.

I must admit I was swearing in the direction of the ref more than normal today... but I am emotionally invested in the match so I am probably biased.

Black looked great for 60 mins, BB looked shite. Yet Leon moved him to 10 and hooked Black.

Saders immediately changed gear and won it

Coach howler

100 more posts on the NotPR game thread, getting close to double PR. Only mention as I must say I’m surprised with the difference in traffic. I’m sure someone will do a character count that shows the difference to be marginal.

Congrats to the Crusader supporters. Owned the last 15mins and therefore the match. Hopefully the season is still up for grabs in the last round when the teams meet again at Eden Park.

I would defend BB, it’s my job, but people are being way too harsh on him. The kick out on the full was his big error but otherwise he was fine, just quiet.

They defended really well for most of the match. Attitude has improved. I think the coaching team needs to have a game plan for the last 15mins. I was thinking it was always going to fall apart in the last quarter.

What was the penalty count? Seemed bad. I’d guess that’s where the blues lost it. Some felt a bit harsh to me...

Mo’unga really showed his preeminence among NZ first-fives. His little touches and ability to make something in the face of staunch defence is the difference.

I get the feeling some Cantabs really hate him for all the mounga vs BB debate which was whipped up by the media.

Edit: hate might be the wrong word. But very keen to give him shit.
