Is that fifteen tries for bridge? Record equalling?
BUT WAAAAH HE GOT RUN DOWN ON AN ANGLE ONCE.
Bridge MOM.
Nice try Auckland, with a change of coach and a bit of luck maybe they could finish as high as 11th next year.
You stay classy.

Thank Christ for that..!,roll on Mitre 10 Cup

Bridge was outstanding tonight. I dont think Ben lam does enough when he's not being fed the ball on the edge. He really goes missing in games

Blues have lost 3 line outs since NeeNee and Moulds went off. Disappointing finish for The Blues they played well for long passages of the game, but the backs had no plan of attack and pretty sloppy in defence. Just shows the bench once again coming on with poor timing in the game.
Good to see the Blues scrum smash the Crusaders, without Ofa..... -

Good to see the Blues scrum smash the Crusaders, without Ofa.....Forgetting the attacking lineout Moulds threw to Sam Whitelock?

There was that 1 line out, which Saders quite rightly had to compete in, you can blame Moulds if you like but the jumper got out muscled as well. The point I was making is changing both players at the same time is not a good coaching decision, particularly when that's one aspect of the game that worked well for the game - bar one throw to that point.

Thought all the Crusaders backs went pretty well. MOM could be a toss-up between Goodhue, Bridge, Big Seta and Mo'unga.
Thought Israel got better the longer the game went, but I can't see him holding Havili out.
If Moody is available (and I hope he is), I wondered who might sit on the bench behind him - come on down Wyatt. Perry needs more footy to hone his scrummaging, but he's been a penalty magnet in general play as long as I've watched him.
I think Romano on the bench ahead of Strange as well.
Think Crotty's hand was the only significant injury - hopefully that is OK.
Come on the Jags - I think I'll be happy enough to play the Rebs next week. Only times I've watched the Sharks this year was during their NZ tour and they were quite impressive.

@steven-harris Hope some of the club games are streaming, should be some good competition.
Big win for East Coast Bays over Massey today too.

Thinking about Bridge, if Duffy can make the All Blacks then he can.
He’s very fast, and the ABs would like he can cover fullback.
Can he play on the right wing? Reiko has 11 sown up, It’s Naholo’s natural position and Lam is knocking on the door too.
On the right wing we really only have Ben Smith, who looks better at fullback and isn’t looking as sharp as previous years.
