        When the maul was half a metre away it looked a good call on teh field. Parsons just got ahead of himself.

        Delighted with that, was up and down on the couch. Fantastic stuff. Loving the grit - win lose or draw there's pride back in teh Blues at last

            Fun game invented tonight. Put yourself in rented accomodation with no sky, and try and follow a Super Rugby game from the Fern comments alone.

            It's not bloody easy! Not one of you pricks has posted a scoreline, it's just Parsons this, Hunt that, Sotutu did something good then something bad but someone else had better hair dye.

            Lift your games!

            Blues 27 v Highlanders 24. 78 minute mark, Blues 5m defensive scrum.

              Caleb Clarke and Hoskins Sotutu were excellent for the Blues. Dickson and Aaron Smith had very good games for the Highlanders.

                  Both qualify for North though.

                        Blues kicking was superb. If we stop giving away offensive penalties it's going to be hard to beat these lads. Great to see them, I'm still stoked. 3-0 against NZ sides, the monkey is well and truly off our backs. In previous years we lose that game through brain explosions

                                    Blues 27 v Highlanders 24. 78 minute mark, Blues 5m defensive scrum.

                                    Try Radio Sport! 🙂

                                    Didn't think of that 🤦🏿

                                    My brain explosion in turn was forgetting Radio Sport is toast. Hopefully ZB hasn’t completely given up on commentary. Stuff or NZHerald usually does live scores.

                                    I did have a look at a live update about half time to be fair - but it was actually more fun to pseudo-follow the game from you lot!

                                      Could ( should?) have been worse.

                                      Landers showing quite a lot when they're not making elementary errors. Far better than I thought they'd be given the personnel.

                                      8 and 6 continue to impress. Ioane back soon please.

                                      Gave the ladder leaders a real fright and a glance of the recent past malaise after halftime, then that northlander dropped his 30th and last high ball and the momentum shifted, again.

                                      Good game, saw some good loosies from both teams.

                                      Fair dues blues - a draw may have spun an accurate narrative, or if a pro footballer could kick one from in front🤨

                                        I'm still shaking after that haha man that was an intense game! Well done Highlanders, proving everybody wrong as usual and showing how tough they are.

                                          Why is BB attempting drop goals under penalty advantage? Wouldn't they be better off going for the try.
