Back to his bad old days. Four penalties. Nuftie runs. Poor lines.

When the team is flying he gets on the coat tails and looks a winner.
When he team is down he drags it further down.

Zero leadership qualities. Very run of the mill first grader.

I never considered this guy as part of my team. His just here for a holiday and the sooner he moves on the better.
Gave away the 1st 3 penalties of the game. Yes his very run of the mill but so are a few others in that team.

I thought Blair put in out there. I don't blame him for that effort and some of those penalties were bad calls.

Blair has been good this year. What everyone forgets about is when Farah is out Blair takes up the slack in d made 40+ tackles. Anasta made 7. He simply has to go is a liability.

FFS. I like his vigour in the play the ball & offloading prowess.... But if he ever holds the ball above his head with one hand in a tackle again I will have a f**king conniption. He's asking for errors in doing that. It infuriates me.

Yep. Blair to me has been great this year however that mistake is enough to knock 100k off his pay.

Ive really liked Blair this year. I have hin in my NRL CEO fantasy team so ive been watching his stats closely. Since rd 3 he has gotten a workhorse almost every week. He makes stupid mistakes sometimes but you can't deny his effort in defence

He is hitting hard. Really puts his shoulder into tackles.
This is why we bought him. For his Mongrel but it's a pity this went missing for a good part of his contract.

Attackers were jogging round him all night. Where has his lateral speed gone?

It's obvious the Tiges are not setting any sort of goals for match performance. Blair completed 35 tackles last night, that's pretty good, but 9 hit ups for 50m playing on the edge that's crap. He needs a rocket, perhaps changing his role with sironen, have sironen on the edge and Blair doing some grunt work might get this slack arse to run the ball. If I was farah I'd be throwing it at him all night. He prides himself on doing the little things well, the so called one percenters, perhaps he should worry more about the other 99 percent of his game. Potter should stipulate how many hit ups per fame is an absolute minimum for each player, I reckon 15 hit ups is about the minimum

We can't blame Blair for last night. He didn't do anything special but at least he didn't f**k up with dropped balls every 5 minutes (which half the team were doing).

He also made 35 tackles so I'm happy with his performance.

It's our backline and back row that needs a shake up. Middle of the field is good.
