Crusaders v Blues

[Siam]

Not a great spectacle but bloody good game so far with intensity and the blues looking dangerous and crusaders hanging on with experience but little flair. One of those games where individual mistakes stand out and execution must be spot on every time.

Good stuff so far fluffybunnies

Anything so his obvious ability isn't wasted

Akira's having a bit of an average game.

His defence has been good. He made one good run off set piece in the middle.

Shout out to Saders Christie who has been strong. Sanders also putting his shoulder in. Douglas anonymous

Always wondered what England would look like in red jerseys...

I thought that was Wales?

Should’ve kept going thru their forward ball runners

[junior]

Christie with a poor start to this half - poor execution and poor option likely costs a 7 pointer

[Frank]

Patty T is the strongest ball carrier in NZ.

Jeez open go at them and you don’t put that back in Akira , patty, or Sotutu’s hands?

And then kicked it out on the full. Missing Nock

[Kirwan]

Sigh. Bullshit penalty

[gt12]

Crap exits are how you lose to the Saders. Don’t give them easy chances.

[Machpants]

@Kirwan nah he rolled around the tackle to end up on that side. As the ref says gotta work harder/better

[Rebound]

Another example of the ref looking out to penalise the Blues, contrast to the other side of the field just now

[ACT Crusader]

Kicking game has been rubbish.

[gt12]

Why kick that?

[antipodean]

How clearly offside can the Crusaders be?

[kiwiinmelb]

May have been a knock on by telia that went unnoticed

[Yeetyaah]

Whaaaaat. Blues scrum? Plummer knocked that ball on.

Don’t think he touched t

[Kirwan]

That’s not the right call at all
