    @KiwiMurph His positioning has been as bad as Coltman's throwing.

    The kick is the wrong option there. They had a 2 on one overlap. Hold onto the ball and build some pressure.

    Worked out OK with a 5m scrum, but still.

    The Crusaders are VERY good at getting a guy on the Highlanders side at the breakdown to slow things down and assist a steal.

    Besides, Goodhue doesn't make mistakes.

    Really liking Smith bringing the running threat into his game. Combined with that pass, it's deadly.

    Crusaders bought that ploy with Crotty setting up right and Hall even pushing right before realising he was wrong leaving that hige space

    Impressive D Landers. Squire leading the charge nicely.

    Man I'd love to see an All Blacks trio of Squire, Cane and Savea right now. Haven't even noticed Read, just doesn't have the same impact like he used to.

    Dumb rugby from Crusaders (not often you say that).

    Take the 3.

    Maybe not confident to get the 3?

    Tbf I think it’s harsh calling out players as Overall great physical playoff match and most lplayers doing job and adding to game minus line out throwing πŸ˜ƒ. Happy to see crusaders forwards scrum well (even though I hate them 🀣) for ABs. Squire has shown some impact on D, Iaone for 3rd first v maybe.

    Very little room for error when you try to attack like that after the hooter. Any stoppage in play (other than penalty) = halftime

    Augers well for the All Blacks because in this form he'll be creating space Beaudy can exploit.

    Sets up an interesting second half. Think both sides will be reasonably pleased. Saders will feel they can pull away in the second 40, and the Landers will be happy to still be in the game.
