Crusaders v Blues

[Nepia]

Nice try by Moala - man it's weird how he looks average sized (height) when he's running near Ioane.

[Tim]

Simplest ideas are always the best.

Crusaders getting done in mid-field and out wide.

[Tim]

Tupou's best game by a mile.

[taniwharugby]

MIssed the start, did Goodhue pick up an injury before k/o?

[taniwharugby]

Blues well off-side there.

[taniwharugby]

oh dear....gotta be guted about ending the half like that.

[kiwiinmelb]

Good game so far ,

I didn't have great hopes of that after last week ,

Credit to tana , blues have fronted

[Chris B.]

@taniwharugby Yeah - tight calf or hamstring. He's a big loss - forming a good combo with Crotty.

Crusaders are very short on experience and combinations from 7-15.

[taniwharugby]

@Chris-B. and the Blues look to be targetting there too.

[Stargazer]

No wonder it's not going well for the Saders, with only Crotty being the first choice player still standing in the backline, and a few forwards missing in action, too. Butter fingers, too.

[Bovidae]

Despite his try I think Pulu has had a very mixed 1st half. There were 3-4 phases early in the half when he was in the centres. Bizarre.

Duffie is playing very well and is ellusive.

[Tim]

@Bovidae Duffie improved massively over the course of 2016. He had a shocker in his first visit to Christchurch. His work under the highball this year has been as good as anyone's.

Yeah - I think we're fucked this week. Too many holes to fill.

[No Quarter]

Moala should have just backed himself there. Fuck he's a damaging runner.

[taniwharugby]

@No-Quarter CRusaders looking very rattled, Wainui getting dealt to on defence

Could not agree more! I'm really impressed with him aswell

[Tim]

@No-Quarter Made easier by three tacklers taking Ioane.

[taniwharugby]

pretty cynical of Kaino there.

[Tim]

No TMO? Okay...
