Season on the brink as broken Blues head to South Africa looking for quick fix MARC HINTONDAVID LONG/STUFFThe Blues coach praised the Chiefs fighting spirit. The Blues are just two matches into the new Super Rugby season, but already the alarm bells are ringing after a 0-2 start that has their season seemingly on the brink already. The Groundhog Day aspect is that, for all their fighting talk, and pledges that lessons have been learned, the Blues fail to win those big moments. It was notable, too, the Blues coach made a direct comparison between his players and the gritty, smart and well-organised visitors. The Blues got so much wrong on Friday night, it's hard to know where to start pinpointing their failings.
