Was Havili good at 10?
Mixed
Mostly fine but got charged down badly for a Reds try
The best 10 the Crusaders have had this year. Not an AB level performance but they should stick with him

He was very good in the first half, gained lots and lots of ground with his PK kicks for touch, distributed well. Second half was mediocre, the charge down was very bad, but other than that he was OK.
Crusaders lost it with their powder puff forwards, getting the ball stripped in general play and in contact.

That is a dodgy call there. He said "release" player pulled his hands out and disrupted the ball. Should be a PK to Crusaders.
You could see mcnicholl lost control. You could say the same about the try that the crusaders were awarded when it shouldn’t have been. Can’t pick and choose when it suits

Also wonder who Crusaders attack coach is, they look real confused,apart from give it to Reece and see what he can do.

Even Reece seems to be off his best to be honest

Jeez social media full of one eyed fans crying. Complaining about a couple calls but ignoring their try that got awarded when it shouldn’t have been😂😂 Crusaders fans are something else when the shoe is finally on the other foot.
All fans whinge. Take a closer look at match threads on here.

Oh FFS, the Crusaders season is toast and has been since their first losing streak. I think even Bryn Hall will have to accept it now.

Don’t lump us all in to that group

Shit performance once again I have been questioning James. Marshalls in put all season we look devoid of ideas on attack but Ellison is also involved in the attack .
I hope we don’t make the top 8 it would only delay the obvious one more week.
New coaching group needed and I would be tearing up a few contracts and selecting youth rebuilding over the next couple of years.
For me the Blues will win this year. -

I wasn't whinging. I make comments about what I think are bad calls all the time without favour.
TBH I was in two minds about who I wanted to win that game anyway. Crusaders losing boost the Highlanders chances.

Was that another earthquake in Christchurch or just Phooey turning in his grave?

Sorry mate didn’t mean for it to come across like I was accusing you of whinging, not what I meant by it. I just think it was ‘football justice’, awarded a try that shouldn’t have been a try so a call or two that were marginal went the reds way.
That result is good for the highlanders and the drua but still 4 rounds to go, plenty of time.
