Crusaders vs Waratahs
-
I think the saders coming back from 0-29 says more about the Waratahs than them, as you kinda expected once the saders got stemmed the flow they were always gonna be a shot to overhaul them, which in the end they actually made hard work of.
BUt for the tahs it just shows the hole Aussie rugby is in right now, lack of self belief in everything they are doing.
Sure they kept going to the end, but they still never really looked like taking bar maybe a lucky penalty.

@no-quarter Really? The Tahs on 2 occasions did the same thing and the referee played on. Nobody was aggrieved then
-
@unite Yep, I've watched it a few times, too. Incredibly stupid. Lengthy suspension coming up, I think.
I wonder whether there's any footage of a Waratah player (allegedly) punching a Crusader in a line-out? I heard the radio commentators about it, when it happened, read it in comments, but didn't see it myself. -
Just watched it. Lack of intensity in the first 30 minutes got punished by some pretty good attacking play by the Tahs.
Best part about the game wasn’t even in the 80 minutes of play, but came in the post game show with Nick McArdle having a massive cry. He started yelling even. I think Gregan and Kafer were a little embarrassed by it.
Aussie rugby, comedy on and off the field.

Link here to Moody elbow

@bones said in Crusaders vs Waratahs:
He's an All Black. Probably won't even be cited.
I hear he’s a good Christian too....

Also from reddit: Moody's forearm (not elbow?) seems to hit Beale's chest (not his head). May depend on camera angle; obviously, we don't have other angles. Would also need more than one frame. Whatever the case may be, it's not the kind of thing I like seeing in rugby, but it may affect the type of offending he'd be cited for (if cited at all & entry-level of the sanction).

@Stargazer Nothing in it.
Too early.....
