Have BB or Mo taken a clearing kick yet or has it all been smiths pop gun box kick
I hate this tactic more than anything. Does he do this for the Highlanders?

Aaron Smith has kicked away ball three times for about a 5 yard gain.

Did Fozzie just expect to say a few words in the media about responding to the first game, and then just expect to turn up.
He’s let the Wobs get their tails up.

Edge of the seat stuff, again. This is a better game but probably only because the weather in better. Our forwards still haven't quite stepped up to where they need to be, yet, with the exception that Ardie and Cane seem to have sported out their roles and I like the look of Hodgman. A mixed bag in the bags, with BB on fire and Clarke having his moments. The Aussies are dispiriting the hell out of us in the forwards and have a good offloading game going

I've said for a while that Moody and Whitelock are our most important players at the moment, given our poor depth at loosehead and lock. We're now without both. This is probably the weakest tight five we've fielded in a long time - hopefully they can stand up in the second half.
We finished that half without a single Crusaders player in the pack. Our pack was comprised of 4 Blues players, 2 Chiefs players and 2 Hurricanes players. Welcome to the foster era!

He’s repeatably putting the Wobs in territory.
The forwards need to take him in to the toilet at half time and give him a seeing to.

That’s a poor choice of words given the player we are talking about, but yes, the forwards should suggest a change of tactics.

Yeah, I’d probably add ALB to the few players making a positive impact.
But in general we are getting bullied in the collision

Three really good touches by Mo'unga in the lead up to that try. Goodhue crucial in setting up both tries today.

One in the first half too. A player his size will get bumped occasionally but he’s a courageous and good defender.

the AB backline is humming now. Great interplay between BB and Mo'unga who then put PT into a gap and then the offload to the captain.

Great timing and pass from Mo’unga - that’s the subtlety I like from him at 10.
Sam Cane must have impressive running metres today. Add that to the defence last week and he is silencing the doubters.
Time to keep the foot on the throat.
