@Chris Do you have a FB account and are you signed in? That might be the issue.
In the interview Reece tells about how he got the call from Robertson and could hardly believe it. In the video, you can still see the surprise on his face when he continues how it was for preseason only (initially) and how awesome (and unbelievable) it was that he got to play for the Crusaders, and now a QF. He never expected to be a Crusader and he loves it in Chch; in the city and in the squad; how nobody judges him and how he can just ask questions and everybody is there to become better.

“I’m a Christchurch boy now”
Great to hear hopefully it means we have him signed up for next season soon.
Apparently the Crusaders have Paula Bale helping out as a mentor for Sevu. When I heard that it brought back some fond memories

The Crusaders should book a fancy restaurant for their team victory party and get arranging a ticker-tape parade for after Final for their fans. I can't see any of the other three teams left in the tournament standing in the way of a Crusaders threepeat.

@sparky I hope the Crusaders aren't that stupid to underestimate any opponent they may still meet in the finals. I also hope they're humble and don't start thinking about celebrating another championship win that must still be won.
Just in case you were looking for a serious response.

Apparently the Jaguares are going to stomp all opposition like a latin Godzilla.

Fancy restaurant? We’re not the Blues and the boys from Ponsonby.
It will be a BBQ at Razor’s place for some steak and eggs, with Breakdance 2 Electric Boogaloo playing on the TV.

Fond memories involving Paula Bale?? That was a terrible era for Canterbury. Do you also have fond memories of Steve Cleave??

So you ENJOYED that era? Blerk. Was it the coming last in the South Pacific Championship that spun your wheels? Losing to King Country maybe?? That farcical RS challenge involving Phil Cropper???
Hideous times. But I saw it all.
How about this for a stunning XV from the early 90s? What an array of talent...one really good AB, one ok one and one ordinary one and that's about it. Not saying this team ever took the field together, but wouldn't be far off...

LoeYeah I did, probably because I was the age where going to the rugby and getting some hot chips and a coke was a big deal. I was at every home game as all junior club members got free tickets in those days.
Some great names in that squad, Wiremu Maunsell was an absolute legend for Sydenham.
Dion Kerr perhaps the most talented (and dirtiest) rugby player I've ever seen. Would puff a cigarette in the sheds before running out and again straight after the game
I made my mum sew a number 6 on my Canterbury jersey because I wanted to be Andy Earl.
