Highlanders v Crusaders

@KiwiInLondon Or at the very least serve as a reality check of the Fern's Clan fluffers.

[Machpants]

A bit harsh since they're not even the worst kiwi team

Sounds a real charmer

@pakman well you’d hope one of our best ABs will annihilate him

That's the attitude... hope that one of our up and coming 21-year-olds has a confidence shattering game...

[pakman]

@NTA that’s the last time 81 times capped All Black Justin Marshall will come on The Platform?!

I can smell an upset tomorrow. Crusaders might just be able to put together 80 minutes and get the points against their more favoured opponents.

[Mr Fish]

I fully expect the Crusaders to win. I'd be blown away if the Highlanders get up (but very pleased).

@SouthernMann what do you mean attitude? One of the best locks going around vs a 21 year old who spends most of his time injured? It’s called acknowledging reality. Don’t be so wet

I suspect @SouthernMann thought you wanted Barrett to physically wreck Holland in a tackle etc, which is what I also thought you meant from your original post.

I’d be surprised if the Crusaders lost too. Although they’ve surprised me a few times this year

One thing in the Highlanders favour is the Crusaders have been mentally weak. If things go wrong it can snowball.. a couple of quick tries could be enough to set it off

I'm genuinely surprised he managed to stop sucking on the Warriors knob long enough to post that.

Scott Barrett out

[Machpants]

Can I change my tips?

That's quite the mental annihilation from the wet-behind-the-ears 21yo to force an All Blacks lock to drop out of the match due to fear.

KO for Holland.

Hannah starts and Antonio Shalfoon is on the bench now

[Damo]

With Scott Barrett the Crusaders would be unbackably roaring hot favourites. With Barrett out they are merely hot favourites.

Hard to see this one being close, even with the injury.

Can say that about nealy all of their games this season. Strange things have happened with the Crusaders season.
