Blues win 11-try Rebels thriller in Auckland,,,

 Hard luck rebels you was robbed - hahahahahaha 

congrats blues, another game of two halves with the blues killing it i the first half and the rebels fighting back in the second.

i have no idea what happened to that momentum though, its almost as if halftime breaks are NZs biggest momentum killer, cos so many NZ teams have the inability to shut up shop.

most impottant thing is a bonus point victory though, but still plenty to work on.

steven luatua is the form 6 in the comp easy, hes got to be in the All Blacks this year, most consistent NZ player IMO.

 saSUE the nz sides start like a house on fire and once softened up are fading.

@beeno1 aka storminged,

dont know why u bother trying to stir me, but seeing as SA lack of success has scared of all the other saffa peeps away, i seem to be out of options with the folks i get to chat too, so this one time i will grant u this  audience with me, -_o

NZ sides do start like a house on fire and they do fade in the end, often struggling to hold on, but this isnt a common trend, something thats popped up in the last month or so and im sure they will get it right before too long, NZ seem to have no problems adjusting to what ever problems come thier way, something our SANZAR bros dont do quite so fluently.

jealousy is rearing its ugly head again buddy, and its not a good look on u. luatua is the form player, but u need years of consistency before u can be as good as read and king richie.
but i do like luatau a lot and hope he gets a shot cos hes been the standout 6 easy & so mobile which is an important attribute for the All Blacks.

BTW did u hear the latest comments from jake white in an interview with greg clarke, when asked his opinon on whose the best player hes ever seen, he said its hard to go past McCaw, the results he produces as a player & his leadership qualities makes him the obvious No1 choice.
so thats something that meyer and whote both agree on, interesting, :o)
