Blues v Crusaders

Goalkicking will hurt Crusaders in tighter games, but they’ll be tough to beat at the pointy end of the season. Blues season running close to TKO at this point, surely.
The towel has been thrown.

JOC will be In the ten shirt soon, I think
Maybe. Let’s hope the hair gel doesn’t run out in Chch before then. Kemara isn’t too bad, but definitely not showing signs of greatness.

Far too easy for the Crusaders. A really tame and limp performance by the Blues.

Reiko’s ball security must be an issue for the ABs
I've been a fan for years.
But based on his recent performances, unless there is a dramatic improvement in his standards, he shouldn't be anywhere near an AB squad.

Is he even the best centre in the Blues squad?

Sotutu may as well sort out his England contract now.
That’s the 2024 World Rugby Player of the year you’re talking about there
You’ve got to play international rugby to win that award.

Too early to say the Crusaders will be in the final this year?

Discipline, isn't that Cotter's supposed MO? Really missing Patty T leadership, and he isn't getting any younger.

The Chiefs, the Reds and the Crusaders all look like they are heading for the playoffs and home advantage.
It's going to be a big scramble for the other three playoff places.

Yeh, nah. Limp performance by an injury-ravaged Blues team. As a Crusaders fan, really wish they would pull their heads in sometimes. Too much screaming and too many head rubs. Almost changed sides today.
The silence on Grace on here tells me he is playing really well. Lio-Willie as well. -
Didn’t get to watch the match. How did Sotutu go.

I have enjoyed JOCs impact from the bench so far this season... some real touches of class
Agreed
Steadies the ship and has much better vision than his younger self
Too old in the tooth for an Aussie recall?
-
@Old-Samurai-Jack our loosies all did a really good job tonight.
Never been a fan of the head rubbing after a mistake or penalty, needs a bit of self regulation and the ref to close his eyes….
Only thing I’ll say is that winning at EP is a big deal for some of these players who don’t get to play at the hallowed ground often.

he might be a useful bench option for them, not sure experienced depth is that great over there.

Rieko has been mostly shithouse
He is where possession goes to die.

@Bones that Springer strike rate. 😉
Today's one was pretty tough, not sure even @MiketheSnow could have scored that one.
