Half-Shukaku transformation takes time, and he is unable to move (He can shield himself inside a Sand barrier and can still attack). Sasuke was able to penetrate the shield with Chidori, I'm sure Jugo's Curse Mark punches(forgot the name) can easily do much more damage to Gaara's barrier than Sasuke's Chidori.
