Crusaders v Highlanders (2 April 2021)

[Stargazer]

@kiwiwomble I remember how the Hurricanes stood down a few of their players during their South Africa tour, including Ardie Savea, and left them out of the following game's line-up. IIRC, all they had done was returning to their hotel late (not being drunk). It can be something really simple.

@stargazer team rules.

Thats where team culture starts.

We've all heard plenty of stories about things happening (at all levels) and often this ties in with teams having poor seasons.

Just hope these guys are getting the mentoring they need too, I mean Ioane now has 2 marks on his career already (if he plays well enough, it wont stop him making the step into Black again) with 2 different teams

Party at Ioanes place got out of hand cops were called etc

@chris must be a 1st 5 thing, used to be party's at Tony Browns

Good point

[Yeetyaah]

Ridiculous call. Jordan should be in the bin.

[KiwiMurph]

What the actual fuck

[gt12]

I’m surprised that this isn’t a YC

[Yeetyaah]

You cannot deny that the Crusaders don't get the rub of the green. Ludacris

[gt12]

I like that question from Ash

[Nepia]

Where's @Crucial - here's some evidence for his Crusaders favouritism.

That was an idiotic decision that is the opposite of nearly every other decision.

[Bones]

Here we go. Crusaders rub yet again.

Jordan tackled a player in the air despite being obstructed and doesn't even get penalised.

[gt12]

Richie missing touch

Doesn’t do it more than Carter my ass.

[Steven Harris]

@yeetyaah I give up ..🤦‍♂️

[Siam]

Yayyy more refereeing totally out of touch with the consumers who make rugby possible.

That's fine DC missed touch once too.

[akan004]

NZ refs are so poor.

Ha ha, I just went back to edit!

[taniwharugby]

TBF, Gregory got hit in the air like that twice in the M10 Cup last year and they cited very similar mitigating circumstances (one from opposition IIRC) and both were just pen

[Yeetyaah]

@steven-harris what are you on about?
