Preseason - Highlanders v Crusaders
-
@African-Monkey always thought he was a decent bloke who likely has a career coaching after he hangs up the boots, but a limited npc player for sure, and even though played some of his better rugby the past 2 seasons off the bench, was still a surprise to hear he had been called in for injury cover.
He is a true battler
That squad of the Crusaders have named is interesting, good to see Toby Bell is still there.

Who is George Reeves ?
He was in the same Hamilton BHS 1st XV as Hotham and Kemara. Mainly a loose forward but also played lock back then.
There are some players listed who will be in the Crusaders U20s.

Never heard of 12 of the saders 25 ...... where have they been hiding them?
Mostly players from the Crusaders academy.

man, i hate games like this, talk about banana skin. Crusaders full of academy guys or people coming back from injury and more or less out first string so on the surface we should win easy...but these guys are in the crusader academy for a reason...and if it any less than a hiding then could be a blow to the confidence....and then there is the chance of injuries...

Injuries are the huge concern. Suddenly we lose two or three guys, and we are well screwed.

I am visiting Mum's so the game was 20 minutes up the road. Went along, never seen so may cars in Methven.
Hard to get anything from the game but Billy Harmon is a brick shithouse and he influences the game whenever he is involved. He has looked AB material to me for a few seasons now.
