Blues v Crusaders

I don't think the Blues are too far off. They can easily come back from this.

Blackadder showing total disregard for his body again. He will have a short career if he's not careful. Big asset for the Crusaders this year though.

i just hope they have the belief to stick to their processes and not think they have to pull out some miracles to stay in it

Forwards are fairly even. But the Crusader backs are at a different level.

Black looks a bit ordinary and limited in this game

Taylor and Whitelock arguably the best on the field.

Havili solid in midfield.

Yeah the Blues have the players to win this if they do it as a team.

So why Goodhue? And this is why Black will not be an All Black. He has no ability to take on the line which would cause some second guessing in the Canterbury backs. They know it is going wide.

@winger Hard when you don't have front foot ball to be fair.

Steven Harris

Ruru just rushed out from halfback and left the gap for Ethan Blackadder to just walk thru instead of drifting and defending like an extra guard dog ..hope someone in the coaching staff was watching..

How long was that advantage

Canes4life

@kiwimurph they need to make a four phase rule and then it should be over. Too many inconsistencies across this competition in regards to how long advantage goes on for.

Tim

Blues looking tentative.

On the replay it didn't look like Rieko was even in front of the other defenders either.

Steven Harris

@tim and flustered ..coaches need to make some changes

Nepia

Heem looks slow. Not sure how he's starting in this Blues team.

Havili! looking good at 12? We might need another option at AB level..

Blink once if @Stargazer is standing behind you with a gun to your head.

Steven Harris

Very poor from Clark , just ran everybody out of room ,just needed to commit 2 defenders and shift 🤦‍♂️

Eroni has a little to learn about the game

Mackerzzzz

Advantages are too long
