Scarlets vs Blues

[Me 1]

Anyone else watching this? Fenby just scored a second almost identical try for us, two simple mistakes and the Blues are behind.

 

[Robert Prosser]

Yeah I am watching it Parks missed a terrible pen in first half, so manyb errors in htis game so far its been shocking Cuthbert couldnt pick the ball up so easy first try and then Parks tried to kick the ball out completely missing it with an air shot as the commentator said Parks couldnt hit a barn door if he was holding the handle.

Scott Williams injury didn't look good, hopefully he's ok for the summer tour.

Cuthbert interception, saw that a mile off. We have a game.

Edit: This has been a game of errors! All tries have come from some sort of mistake so far. Although the last Scarlets try came from a Scarlets mistake so it cancels it out

 

[Robert Prosser]

What makes Scott Williams shoulder injury strange it was from Lualala's hand off.

Another soft try to concede by the Scarlets, only 5 points in this now.


Edit: Lovely play by North creating a try with a cracking run game over now nice try for Day.

Yes, bonus point for the Scarlets, George North creating something out of nothing and great support from a second row.

Only thing more frustrating than some of Nigel Owens questionable decisions is Derwyn Jones biased commentary, shamelessly plugging his players who he is an agent of.

Scarlets were better than the Blues. But hardly a suprise considering what team the Blues put out.

 

[Robert Prosser]

The best team won in a poor game in my eyes way to many errors, but have to admit the Scarlets were great in defence gave the Blues nothing at all not a scrap won so many turnovers it was ridiculous.

 

[Bluemoon]

Well taken win for the Scarlets. I think the moment of the game was George Norths break and fantastic offload. This essentially puts the Blues out of the race for 4th.

The Blues defensive and attacking organisation was worse than a high school team at times. The Scarlets defence was well organised, but it was far to easy to defend against a team whose attackers were all grouping around the ruck. I've been saying all season I don't believe the coaches have the man management and tactical ability to lead a heineken cup team.

Casey Laulala will be so dangerous with time and space at Munster. Cardiff desperately need a centre next year, because Gavin Evans is a below average centre for when Roberts is away.

I think Tom James and Chris Czjekai have also been very poor all season. I am worried because all these departures at Cardiff while they seem to be holding on to poor players, rather than brining talent through.

All the best to the Scarlets, it'd be great for them to be in the top 4.

Poor game from both teams, the only good thing was that there was some interest throughout.
Dropped passes, knockons, forward passes and too many turnovers. And nigel Owens showed his bias there allowing the scarlets to get their hands all over the ball.
Looks now as though only the Scarlets and Ospreys have any chance of making the top four.
When Laulala leaves, the blues would be crazy not to try Henson in the centre, the film will be done and dusted by august, and he is the best they've got .

 

[welshglory]

Typical Pro 12 game then aye. Agree about the Henson thing, Baber's a bloody fool. At first i thought that perhaps he was injured, but to then find out they picked Czekaj and Sweeney ahead of him! Flippin'ek

 

[cyRil]

I'm the only one that enjoyed this game then?

I did, but I think you know why

 

[DuncTheDoodle]

Just watched it on x6 to try and fit it into half an hour with only tries at normal speed, (Thank you Sky+) but was it just me or did the Cuthbert of the Six Nations seem like an all too brief dream? Struck me he was back to his clumsy old self today, even if he still has a few great moments and ability to finish in his bag?

 

[cyRil]

If he was Tom James, Jiffy would call him 'raw'. He had a mixed bag, but still going to be a cracking player in my view.

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Can you blame him with the standard of the players around him playing.

 

[cyRil]

Well, what he did wrong was his fault and not that of the people around him. The Turks' first try should have been a simple drop and over the deadball, but he tried to be too clever.

 

[psychic duck]

anybody who think Cuthbert is better than North (and there were a few saying that after the 6 Nations) is wrong

although Cuthbert did better than I expected in the 6 Nations and was good, he does not have the sidestep and as good handling ability such as the offload that North showed for the Scarlets fourth try

in fact it may have been that North was so heavily marked part of the reason that Cuthbert was successful for Wales last 6Nations
