<p>What? No bold predictions or reports of the next big thing going to tear the Crusaders apart. And not even a mention of how Savea will dominate Todd. Disappointing C4L</p>

<p>Whoever wins that battle will go along way to deciding the final result IMO. Openside and First Five will be key areas in this game and if Barrett fires I think that will tip us over the line.</p>

<p>Go Savea!! :D</p> -

<p>Reckon the Canes will pip them. Say mid 30's to low 20's - expecting to see some good running rugby and some cheehoo hits too!!</p>

Up against good opposition we have folded every time, Canes by 7 or under even with our home advantage :(</p></blockquote>

I'm a little more optimistic going into this weekends game than previous derbies. <br><br>
As I mentioned in last week's game thread, it's only taken the whole comp for Toddy to play what I think is our best midfield. Richie is starting to kick goals more consistently and we don't have Macalai on the wing. <br><br>
It's going to be a tough game as I like what the Canes forwards have been doing this season. I think we need to target the Canes midfield and back 3 and keep the ball the hell away from Barrett -
Canes started well

Love the nz conference. <br>
Neutral really.. but canes win is good for my landers. ..<br><br>
Just no major injuries for all teams please -

In that bit of play with the Crusaders pressing very hard on the Canes line, he did a very good job of having to do fuck all....managed to stand at pillar a lot though.</p></blockquote>

You still not sold on ardie? -
Good contest this one. That Sanders pack could prove the difference in the end.<br><br>
Kicking like that won't help them. -
Great tackle a savea

Fooking stupid. This is the Crusaders not the fucking Force. Idiots.
