@sparky pretty much, they'll have to win all their remaining games.

Credit to Cameron. Really stepped up the last 2 weeks

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.

Yeah. I'm amazed the Crusaders got so close.

Hey Canebry,

Crusaders not taking a shot there sums up the lack of leadership.

Runt

WTF

Duluth

Shame they got a BP

Go the Tahs and go the Drua

The noose tightens on Penney

Canes4life

I hope the Saders re-sign Penney.

Super rugby record for Penney must be Moana Pacifica level

Is Rob Penny a personality hire?

Please do the same next week.

Ironically this result see's the Highlanders stay in 7th, but their bonus point moves the Crusaders up a place to 9th ahead of MP on points difference. just 3 points out of the 8 right now, but could drop places again if the Tah's or Force win tonight.

Damo

I think we are odds on to make the playoffs now. Hard to see anyone catching us to take over the coveted 7th or 8th position on the table.

KiwiMurph

@Daffy-Jaffy they prob hope the Force do win. The alternative is a Drua win which pushes Crusaders further away from 8th (not accounting for an unlikely draw)

Duluth

@Daffy-Jaffy

..and they could be 7 or 8 points out of the 8 if the Drua win

SouthernMann

Nine kids 22 or under in that 23. While they have only won two games, there is what nine All Blacks in the Crusaders. Massive for the young boys
