Crusaders v Sunwolves

[gt12]

I thought the ruck was being assessed in a different way this year? I can’t see anything different noawadayz. Seems to have last about a week.

After a blistering start the Saders are looking average outside the scrum

[Donsteppa]

Saders lineout looks like the All Blacks at the turn of the century.

It is slightly. They're just making sure that ONLY the first arriving player can go for the ball. I thought the one the commentators were talking about was correctly decided, or at least it was so fine that you should allow him to continue (IMO anyway)

SWs constantly living off side

[ShadowTrooper]

Seems like the Saders pulled back after dominating the first 10...

"Mud the great leveler".

Crusaders struggling to build anything with the wet ball.

I wonder if the guy who put $38K on them to win @ $1.01 has started hedging his bet?

[Chris B.]

Funnell and Sanders have both hobbled off - both look like knee injuries.

[Stargazer]

Did anyone see what happened in about the 37th minute near the touchline (close to the SW try line)? Radio commentators said it was something for the citing commissioner. Tackle on Bateman? Mataele?

[Chris B.]

@stargazer No idea sorry.

[Tim]

@chris-b Stuff live commentary claims "knee for Funnell and ankle for Sanders".

[ShadowTrooper]

Fuck Drommond's kicking in general play is all shades of shit

[Chris B.]

@shadowtrooper He's covered himself in shit in the first few minutes of the second half.

passing not too great either, haha. Crusaders absolute shite

[Donsteppa]

Razor needs to get some of the big names on the bench on...

[Donsteppa]

Ah, no Crockett on the bench.

[ShadowTrooper]

How is that penalty justified?

[Machpants]

Shades of the blues last year... And yesterday. Razor will be raging

[Donsteppa]

Did the Crusaders hit the beers at halftime?

[ShadowTrooper]

Crotty does something sensible - goes forward
