Looked to be holding his arm in a way that looked like a broken wrist. <br><br>
Masoe with a breakdown penalty win just 5m out to seal the Racing win. -
<p>Looks like a fair bit of rain around Brisvegas</p>

<p>Went to Clan vs Racing game. Can't really offer much other than enjoyable sort of game,but the stadium was horriffic. All the stands were about 30 metres from the pitch, made it utterly useless to try and really see what was going on.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Centrally located football stadium, great viewing, easy access and great infrstructure. So instead they use a small crap, athletcis stadium which has none of the above.</p>

<p>MR Jnr experienced his first live rugby match, a the tender age of 4. Not the best introcution I'm afraid.</p> -
Whilst I'm not particularly looking forward to the Super Rugby season due to the new structure, I'm quietly confident Blackadder is finally trying something a little different with the Crusaders. We can always resort to forward play and Nadolo ball if need be, but it sounds like the style of play might be more expansive and I've heard good things in the media about training. Lots of new names in the squad for the Reds game, many of whom may not be seen in the regular season but hopefully Blackadder has the nous to find a way to include a high performer if he's not in the squad.
