Crusaders v Sunwolves

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

Fuck Drommond's kicking in general play is all shades of shit
passing not too great either, haha. Crusaders absolute shite
-
How is that penalty justified?
-
Crotty does something sensible - goes forward
-
Like what I see from Stratton
-
Argh, my 9-16 margin stuffed in the final seconds.
Scrappy game but good to get a win against a pretty tough forward pack.
-
Thought Romano shored things up when he came on, carried well and got stuck into the collisions

@bones said in Crusaders v Sunwolves:
he probably got an offer (I imagine a decent one) and thought hey I get to live in Japan and get to start every week. Why sit around holding tackle bags?
Little didn’t even get offered a squad position in NZ, then he went to Japan. It was a big surprise given his NPC form that year
-
Not a great game from the Crusaders, but that's what you get when you (have to) pick a lot of 2nd and 3rd stringers. Razor took a risk when resting several of his ABs and other players, and he still got the 5 points.
Pity Dagg didn't get the ball. Drummond had a mare. In the end it doesn't matter. The bonus point win is in the bag.
-
Made hard work of that - weather didn't help, but job done - bonus point win with the additional huge bonus of having been able to give a lot of important players a three week rest - and get rid of some compulsory stand downs, while giving lots of the lesser lights some decent responsibility.
Thought Delany came through with flying colours - had a bit of Midas Touch about him. Owen Franks had an impressive hitout in the scrums. Romano had good impact. Most of the others were a bit mixed - good and bad.
-
@stargazer Izzy didn't look happy when he came off - hopefully nothing to do with his injury..didn't like the way the SWs were being given a free rein in the tackle?the breakdown?offsides?
