Reds v Crusaders

[broughie]

Anyone reckon the Reds have a showing in this one.

[taniwharugby]

@broughie always...one of those teams that seems to drag others down if they are in a rut.

[broughie]

@taniwharugby I wanted to pick the Saders but the Reds forward pack is useful, its at Suncorp, they beat the Sharks and the Crusaders backs are meh especially without Moanga.

Yes, a bit of a banana skin game. Like the Blues experienced last year with that draw.

[KiwiMurph]

@Stargazer actually the Reds did beat the Sharks.

[Stargazer]

@KiwiMurph Haha, yes, just edited my post. I confused them with the ponies.

[KiwiMurph]

Will be a good test for Goodhue to go up against Kerevi - he really seems to be the key for the whole Reds attack.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

That young Perese debuting for the Reds on the wing made a pretty damn impressive cameo again the Farce last week. Definitely one to watch.

[Stargazer]

@KiwiMurph Yes, and all those injury enforced changes in the Crusaders squad: how will the rookies/2nd stringers go?

It will also be interesting to find out how Ioane will go against his old team and how he will perform in SR after a several years absence, also considering his age.

[Canerbry]

Fuck no this isn't looking good. Can't get our hands on the ball and Dagg pulls a leg.

[mariner4life]

Fucking shit suncorp turf

[Bones]

Fucking hell. Not a good year to be an AB wearing 15.

[Hooroo]

@Canerbry

Looked awful didn't it. Fuck I hope he isn't out for long. My favourite players are ones that turn down the coin for All Black opportunity. Been playing awesome too

or not. what kind of fucking side is that?

[Damo]

I've got a bad feeling about this. Crusaders not looking sharp and have lost Dagg.

[mariner4life]

This is going to blow out.

[Chris B.]

Crikey - it's turning into a disaster and we're only 20 minutes in. Dagg and Tamanivalu both hobbled off, 10 points down and we're looking clueless and with several midgets in the backline.

[Tordah]

Reds look good, Crusaders useless

[Bones]

Taylor and Crotty with defence genius status there.

[Unite]

So Crusaders rooted, and Nehe and Dagg both stuffed as well...
