[QUOTE="Larksea, post: 894584, member: 43875"] yeah the blues can beat any NZ side on a given day its crazy they have not beaten a NZ side in 2 years?? also true some of those results have been just the rub of the green or the odd critical call going against them. Pretty much all the games are tight. But a lot of the results is on themselves and poor closing out of games, poor skills and tactical decisions. The chiefs had no right to win that game, that last 10min was a good example of the blues blowing this type of result. Pulu made his name as an impact sub at the chiefs after being a bit of a bully at ITM cup level. I dont think he has ever consistently shown he has the game management and vision to hold as much responsibility as he does at the blues right now. I see him as kinda like the polar opposite of someone like Andy Elis. Elis was physically pretty small and not really a gifted athlete and while his clearance wasn't fast and his pass wasn't awesome either he did have very good vision and understanding of the game and enough ability to put those skills to work.
