[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 384957, member: 13739"] Missed the game last night, so just watched in on iPlayer. Dissapointing performance from the Blues overall. It was always going to be tough considering the hugely innexperienced front row they had, including the bench. Pretorious was the only Blues forward really performing untill Bradley Davies came on. I was especially disapointed with Rush, but Munster did a job on him, didn't allow him any space atall. Lloyd Williams looked a little off the pace being his first game back from injury, some of his passing was waay down on the crisp service he usually offers. Laulala struggled to do much on the backfoot as he was most of the game. The Earls v Halfpenny battle was great to watch, both ready to have a crack, ended up quite equal in the end with Earls getting a bit more space behind the stronger pack, but Halfpenny adding his worth by keeping the Blues within touch with the boot. Roberts made a massive difference when he came on, should have happened earluer despite a decent showing from Hewitt, Roberts is in a different class! What a waste Parks is, he's obsessed with drop goals, and possibly cost Blues the match by taking them at every opportunity instead of being patient and going theough the fases. Munster deserved the win, and could have won more comfortoubly considering O'Gara's missed kicks, but the fact of the matter was that it was a 1pt game, and Parks didn't keep his composure. Too much work for the Blues to do, I feel their season's over. [/QUOTE]
