I missed the first half. What about the Crusaders back 3 was awful?

We had 11 pass from the ruck, nine was in it, straight into the ground about a metre away. Worst pass I've seen in a long time, no pressure. 23 was a turnstile in defence, 14 also. 14 did a couple of howler passes i game, too

[Yeetyaah]

Tolai seems a handy thrower

[Tim]

Blues look like they've just met.

[number9]

Very impressed with Plumtree.

[Yeetyaah]

That lineout was crooked as fuck

[Tim]

Fainga'anuku going to be dangerous this year.

[Yeetyaah]

Dang that was impressive. Fihaki has some pace.

[number9]

Blues back 3 not committing to the tackle, too much ball watching.

[number9]

AJ Lake and Perofeta did not do anything on D.

[Yeetyaah]

Blackadder gone again. Akira starting shit in the breakdown, at least he hasn't changed.

[number9]

Blues forwards looking good
.

[number9]

Crusaders bunch of bloody cheats, typical.

[Yeetyaah]

Hopefully the Crusaders bring this form into SRA.

[Tim]

Chiefs: lineout
Crusaders: not be offside constantly

[Tim]

Just fucking engage the scrum.

[number9]

Going for rhe line out was a good call, nice try.

[Yeetyaah]

I still don't quite get the referral. Do they have to specify a player who was offside? So they can't just say nah check the offside?

[Yeetyaah]

These offsides are embarrassing. Junior rugby stuff.

They have to be specific and have one shot at it with the ref.

[Tim]

Blues looked a lot better as that half went on.
