  • The Brumbies threw everything they had at the Blues in the last ten minutes, but it wasn’t enough as the Blues held on in an absolutely heart-stopper.

      Well, president Obama, you are saying this from the comfort of your keyboard and with plenty of time to think. He had 30 seconds on the clock, a lot of pressure on and a game to win. Those meters you are saying he should have won first before attempting a drop-goal attempt are MASSIVELY difficult to win against a team like the Blues, that won so many turnover balls all night and defended so well and ferociously. I hope that you can enjoy the fact that we had the chance to watch such an amazing semifinal and that Aussie rugby is not dead, on the contrary, very much alive with such a performance from the Brumbies.

      Barrett is the best 10 in the world by far, no player is perfect and as much as the crusader fan girls desperately try to criticise him each week, nothing will change the fact that’s he’s an absolute boss and their boy Mounga will never achieve the same success in the black jersey as him.

I’ll take a 1 point win over a loss any day. Oh Ofa was on side when he charged down that kick, pause it at 5:29 and it shows half back with ball in hand ready to pass and Ofa we’ll behind the ruck.

    Astonishing that some Blues fans are claiming the ref as the Brumbies 16th man. Absolutely astonishing. Both yellows, under the current rules, were borderline reds so Blues fans cannot complain about either (rubbish rules, shouldn't be reds but that's how they've been officiated all year). Len Ikitau missed this game because of such rules. To top it all off, Luke Reimer secured the most textbook ruck penalty at the end and O'Keefe (genuine arguments to be made about legitimate bias with him) flat out refused to call it, not to mention Romano then playing the ball on the ground. Blues Crusaders final will be elite and the Blues have been the best over the course of the season, but to say the Blues beat the ref is about as one-eyed as it gets.

      As a Blues supporter I am surprised and did expect to see at least one red card. IIRC they mitigated the Ekland one because he was passive in the tackle, or something like that. Having said that, I don't think the officials were one-eyed, not by a long shot. The Brumbies were lucky not to be called up for truck n trailer leading up to at least one of their tries. The officials missed plenty both ways. The fact remains the Brumbies weren't able to defeat a 14-man Blues team. Certainly their defence was inferior to that of the Blues.

      Yep. It was obvious, and right in front of O'Keeffe. Given the context of the game at that point, I can only conclude O'Keeffe was scared that if he blew the whistle, he'd be pounded for deciding the game, so it was easier for him to let play continue as opposed to enforcing the laws. Ah well. Blues played well enough to win, despite conceding 3 tries to 2, but in this particular passage of play, they got out of jail.
