Force v Crusaders

[Machpants]

Strange wagging his finger at the Force when 15 points behind, yeah well done dude

[antipodean]

Wife asked if I wanted to watch a comedy tonight. I said I was watching the rugby. Turns out we were both right.

[Duluth]

Force go for the corner. Come on get another one

[Duluth]

Easy

[Canes4life]

Jeez what a way to finish. Force far too good.

I'd be picking the Rebels to beat them next week in Chch at this rate.

[Duluth]

37-15 FT

[akan004]

Wow, how embarrassing was that. Sack Penny now.

[Machpants]

That is an utterly appalling performance by an NZ team. I am not sure I have seen anything as bad ever by a Kiwi team

Ozzie 68 - South Island 15

[Canerbry]

The Australian ref here is not my favourite person at the moment.

[KiwiMurph]

Well deserved by the Force. They played well

[Canes4life]

@Canerbry I don't think it should be the ref you should be hating. Maybe cast your eye over to the players and the coach.

[Winger]

Well done WF.

37-15.

After losing 3-50 in their last match

[Kirwan]

Did the Force get the BP? If they did, Crusaders the only team still on single figures.

[Canerbry]

@Canes4life sure, thanks for telling me who to hate, you should also hate the Australian ref.

@Canes4life sure, but you should also hate the Australian ref.

He was crap, no idea what he was seeing half the time, rucks were chaos

Franks and Moody were a liability in the first half - starting them was a mistake. Reihana is a better 1st than Hohepa. Aumua just looks slow - maybe it’s what’s happening inside. I think this game is all on the coach.

[Canes4life]

@Machpants he was average, but the players were also very average.

[sparky]

The Force's first win over the Crusaders since 2013.

Make no bones about it, the Crusaders are a poor team this year.

Totally, he wasn't biased, just crap. But he wasn't as bad as the saders

[antipodean]

That last try spoke volumes. Check out the positioning of the Crusaders forwards in a defensive lineout 5m out. They create two pods that don't match thee attacker's set up. Blackadder is the hooker for some ungodly reason and Grace folds like a lawn chair on the side of the maul.
