The Blues will cut loose and perform well for the full 80 minutes at some stage this season, but unfortunately for them and their supporters, it is likely to be when they are out of the playoff race.
It's already looking extremely doubtful that they will finish in the top eight of the competition.
With eight matches to go and before this ninth round kicked off, they were in ninth, three points below the eighth‑placed Jaguares, and are already talking about having to win every match with a bonus point in order to force themselves into finals contention.
The Blues will take on the Brumbies at 6.05 tonight.
On Friday, the Highlanders defeated the Stormers 57-14, lastnight the Kings hammered the Rebels 44‑3, the Crusaders defeated the Cheetahs 48‑21, the Chiefs beat the Sunwolves 27-20, the Waratahs edged the Reds 29-26, the Lions defeated the Force 24-15,while this morning the Sharks defeated the Jaguares 33-25.
