27,000 people turned up at the Millenium Stadium and were treated to an entertaining game. The first half saw 5 tries. The Blues were in impressive attacking form. Andy Powell was in fine form and doing everything a coach could ask of a no.8. He was winning ball at the line-up, getting go forward off the base of the scrum, running supporting lines and putting in hard tackles. At half time Jerry Guscott singled him out for praise. The try of the game started from a high kick from Gloucster. This was snapped up by Ben Blair and he executed a trade mark side step and went on a searing run through the centre of the field. He linked up well with Jamie Robinson who fed Alfie for an excellent try under the posts. One of the best Blues tries of the year. Half time 27-17.
Gloucester tried hard in the second half and the result was in doubt for quite a while but the Blues ran out deserved winners. A fine game of rugby.
My man of the match. Andy Powell. His first half performance was immense.
