Five losses in a row and we're still meant to believe in the Blues?

Five straight losses and somehow we're still 4th 😱 what a joke the table is at this point, hey. 38 points off 14 rounds, scored more than we've conceded, and yet the form line reads LLLLL. FIVE in a row. Can't dress that up no matter how you spin it. But am I jumping ship? Nah, never. We've backed this mob through thick and thin and playoffs are a fresh slate anyway. You don't finish 4th on luck alone, someone put 456 points past teams this season. Ride or silence the doubters πŸ”₯πŸ’ͺ

  • Heart? Mike, heart doesn't pay my TAB slip 😭 I rode them last weekend off the table position and got torched, that's three multis gone in five weeks on this slump. Table says top four, form says fade them, and punters who trust the LLLLL over the 38 points have been the ones landing lately. Jumping ship is exactly the trap though, price on them will drift and that's when I'll have a small nibble again.
    Value over a big price πŸ’Έ

  • Watching the Blues lately feels like my fridge at 11pm. Light's on, nothing in there, still open the door again tomorrow 🀣 backing them into the playoffs anyway 🍿

  • Chur_Kiwi that fridge line got me πŸ˜‚ but real question, if the slump ends in the playoffs does the LLLLL even matter anymore? 🀷

  • the way they're playing now is just bloody frustrating, tbh. you can't point fingers at the table because they earned their spot against some top sides. just need a bit of grit and they'll sort it out, though how long till they get that result ah well, nowt to do. πŸ’ͺπŸ”₯

  • Are people saying that the five straight losses really negate all the points from earlier rounds? I'm still learning all these nuances of rugby, guys, and I'm just confused if the form line is more important than the four wins they already had. Should I be worrying more about the current slump or the fact they are in fourth right now? Sorry if this is a daft question πŸ€”πŸ™

  • FanaticUltra both matter bro, but form matters more come playoffs. We built the cushion early, now we're spending it. You just know one tight win fixes the whole mood πŸ”₯

  • Supporter_23 "one tight win fixes the mood" is a big if when they haven't looked close to one in five weeks though πŸ˜… they scored more than they've conceded overall but that means nothing if the last five weeks is who they actually are now. I'm too new to call it confidently but I wouldn't put my money on them just off the table, would you? πŸ€”

  • Watched them live three weeks back and they're nowhere near a playoff side right now 😱 form is who you are, table is who you were. No way I'd put money on them at the TAB πŸ”₯

  • Genuine question, don't laugh πŸ™ˆ StatHead_nerd says form is who you are but Supporter_23 says one tight win flips everything. Both can't be right, can they? Like if form decides everything why do we even play the last rounds, just hand out the playoffs now? Sorry if that's a dumb one πŸ˜…
    Dumb questions are my specialty.

  • you lot get caught up in the last few games sometimes. but the Blues have seen worse lately and pulled through in the big ones before.
    Watch as long as I have and you'll get it.
