    Lions guilty of not reacting. Crusaders backed themselves to take the quick through with a player down, while the Lions were still on autopilot for the set piece. Difference in class between the backlines on attack is immense.

    I agree but the bigger difference is the quality of the defensive systems.

    Pretty quiet game from Reid, prefer he stays out of the heavy contact stuff now and saves himself for the internationals

    @hydro11 yep, how many minutes were the Crusaders defending inside 5-10m.

    What a different game we'd have if players were forced to stay on their feet at rucks.

    Lions with the unwanted Three-peat.

    Every other 10 in NZ.

    Must start first test

    If DMac is picked ahead of him again it would be an absolute farce.

    Mounga start, Dmac off the bench

    @mariner4life won't happen, BB will start, RM should at least be on the bench, but whether he will is the question.

    Does that suit both players' strengths? Or is it just picking the two best guys in some sort of prearranged pecking order?

    Mo’unga to start, BB at fullback, B Smith on the wing (given he’s not always From Accounts on defence these days).

    @mariner4life as always, I think they know what they want and until BB shits the bed in Black or gets injured, he starts (aside from when he is rested)

    We’ll need someone to bring out the kicking tee. Step up Bauden....

    @mariner4life seriously though, I'd like to see Mo'unga get time off the bench v Aus/SA and a start vs the Argy. He's proven himself at this level now, deserves a chance to take the next step. I'm concerned the coaches love of all things Barrett and misplaced faith in DMac will see him get limited chances.

    Crusaders are an all round machine this year. Deserved winners by a mile.

    I don't think we were watching the same game. Thought Read was immense and definitely outplayed Whitely.

    @no-quarter i think starting richie and BB off the bench is best use of both their talents. DMac as a handy backup.

    Barretts will start. Dmac will bench (a decision i can understand) and unless we lose, most will be cool with it.
