Crusaders 2024
-
Well surprisingly I am hating watching the Crusaders and I could punch the TV shitless when watching them this season.
But I am enjoying watching the other games The Dura are great to watch, the Reds have improved a lot, The Canes are good to watch,Even enjoying watching the Blues and Chiefs and I feel dirty after saying that.Really a lot of the games have been great to watch.
Now I sit and watch what happens to the crusaders and which direction they will go, a lot of talent in their u/20 squad, I would put some of them in the squad 2025 and build a new team,It might take a couple more years of pain but the up side could be a champion team once again.And to all the people wanking on about the crusaders season and revelling in it, swings and round abouts,I just smile sad wee people. -
@Canes4life why can’t I come on here. I’m allowed my opinion about the state of rugby as well.
-
@African-Monkey certainly no bandwagon jumper. Day 1 warriors fan unfortunately.
Crusaders to finish 8th then win the final from there. -
@chchfanatic The wink face was a hint of sarcasm haha don't take it too personally.
And as for you guys winning, that's better 😉 the proper Canterbury attitude.

@Chris In fairness, they're only revealing in it because you guys are so dominant haha. I'd take it as a compliment if anything. If you guys were no good, then no one would give a shit haha.
yeah its all good It doesn't worry me have seen it all before in all sorts of sports and in life.
Blues will win SR this year is my pick,Early form means nothing it is won in the last 3 weeks.
Blues to me have the fire power to win it. -
@chchfanatic how can you have an accurate opinion on the current state of the game when you clearly don't watch rugby atm. You said you 'used to watch' and you 'don't care' so if you're not currently watching Super Rugby how do you know if it's boring or not? Because it's clearly the opposite atm.
Fair call, I probably shouldn't have said 'jog on' and you're entitled to your opinion but to have an accurate opinion I feel like you need to be watching more games.

Well the crusaders have been a bit prostrate this year
Hahaha that made me spill my drink.

@Chris just imagine if we got all our players back at the end of the season. Finish 8th. Then beat Hurricanes , Blues , Chiefs to win the final. That would be embarrassing.
I’ve bet on the chiefs myself. Surely they win it from here. Blues are just fluffybunnies and the Hurricanes are well , they’re the Hurricanes. -

You would know aye after watching so much Super Rugby. The Crusader's aren't winning shit this year, they are mud.
-
@Canes4life I know because that’s what history tells me. Tell me I’m wrong. I’ll wait
-
@chchfanatic history tells me that when you have Razor, Sam Whitelock and Mo'unga you win. Guess what, you don't anymore. The Crusaders just need to face up to the fact the dynasty is over.

I think the chiefs are a DMac injury away from not winning the comp. -

The same could have been said about Crusaders and Mo'unga the previous 7 years
Maybe but that has nothing to do with 2024.

But jog on with your fickle support, just don't come running back when the Crusaders start winning again
Not sure telling supporters to jog on is the best thing for the game.
I don't think the post he was responding to was from a supporter mate, just someone who swaps between codes as suits.

No the person he responded to has been a long time Crusader supporter and has been heavily involved in the Chch rugby scene for a long time.

fucking Hurricanes fans. Non stop negaitivity for years and years and year
this coach sucks. that coach sucks. this player sucks. that player sucks. too wellington-centric. not wellington-centric enough
they have one good month where they've beaten the Force, the Rebels, the Crusaders (ie 3 of the 5 shittest teams in the comp), took OT to win a shakey one against the Reds, and beat the Blues who had a fucking halfback on the wing, and suddenly it's nothing but relentless positivity and everyone else needs to come along for the ride.
it's fucking shameless is what it is
