Looking forward to the WC how much confidence will the Argentine squad get from defeating a AB laden Crusaders in CHCH
Hugh amount so would say may ease some mental doubts come WC time.Fair Dinkum Bloody best team the Crusaders have ever played, ya know!
can't remember where i heard this, but apparently they completely destroyed teh Hurricanes. At the Caketin no less. While the Crusaders could only sneak past them. At home
#nailedon #cantlose #handthemthetrophynow #dynastystartshere
Rubbish Crusaders got smoked by the Chiefs, didn't ya know??? ArgJags Towelled up the Chiefs in BA! Hopeless!
-
have they arrived in NZ yet or they just rocking into Christchurch Saturday morning, take the late flight home with the extra seat booked?
-
@mariner4life Yeah that rings a bell too I also heard that amongst other things from that source

@Chris thats enough ferning for you, replying to yourself!

@taniwharugby I thought that might get a response

It feels like scrum battle is going to be hugely important.
Crusaders look to have a huge edge at scrums on paper but can they make it count? - Brumbies had a big edge last week at scrum time but the way the game went they weren't able to really capatilize.

@KiwiMurph and the saders werent able to make thier scrum advantage count over the canes either...have to think they wont be that poor 2 weeks in a row.

That Jaguares4life dude has ruined
Don;t confuse trolling with a bit of chat and having some fun
This is a Kiwi forum so I have to amplify a little bit
I understand about the Irish Lovely bunch when they were competitive but never beating the Kiwis- easy to patronise and say well done for a good game
FOH with that mentality for me
Irish beat the Kiwis twice in 2 years & are entitled to celebrate
Jaguares have nothing to lose If they're in the game at half time they've a good chance of winning
Vamos Jaguares
This is how Jaguares celebrate post match 🔥🔥

Scrums will have negligible impact on the game apart from kicking over penalties and for territory
Jaguares have given away ~40 penalties this season at scrum time
It was how the SA sides were able to compete with against Jaguares bit they still lost anyways Brumbies and Chiefs as well in playoffs
Lineout time is the real battle Petti has most lineout steals in the Comp
Whitelock is also a menace Great battle in storeSaders best chance of winning is a blitz in 1st 30 mins Play with tempo and get a big lead
Jaguares have the fitness to play 80 mins & an equally high quality bench

Only 900 tickets left on sale apparently.
Sweet, only half the stadium to sell then

@Jaguares4real I don’t think it will be a blitz in the first 30,finals are normally hard tough scrap for every inch affairs
The Crusaders are in their 3rd in a Row so will be well prepared for the hard slog
Few tries I think and hard fought ones at that -

Lions were a very open & loose side who would play from anywhere and everywhere whenever possible
Jagaures will not afford Crusaders any such luxuries They'll kick alot for territory & force mistakes trough linespeed and intensity in defence
Then attack off turnovers & unstructured play through their dangerous outside backs
-
@Jaguares4real looking at a test match here
The Crusaders will play the same to a certain extent attack up the middle kick for space wether it’s in behind the rush defence or wide to the wingers for space.
And look to move turn over ball quickly into space . Attack the set pieces to assert some pressure.
