This is a shame. That forward dominance isn't happening yet. Just stupid shit. I'll be happy with this score at half time.

It was clever by Jules to place the ball and buy himself time but Todd picked it and grabbed the ball, killing off the first half. Nothing to do with Ardie, the guy is just all class.

TBF Grant Nesbit made a fair statement there. What was the penalty for when Codie Taylor popped his bind first? J Marshall appear to answer that its the zen of the thing.
Though Codie came up first, the reason he popped up was because the canes players were back pedalling and bailed out, forcing the scrum up rather than backwards.
Looked a reasonable call to me.

So what were they penalised for exactly? From the rules book.
They didn't collapse. They weren't popped. To me it didn't look like their Loose forwards released early...So what?
I'm not arguing it wasn't the right decision but why? What was the exact infringement ruled?

Up and down first half from the Good Guys. Some lovely hands and nice ball retention, but letting ourselves down with lack of polish.
Lovely break from Richie. FABGB playing excellent on both sides. Hall’s speed to the ruck and his pass has been very good.
Canes look a little lost in attack. Forwards and backs not linking. I get the kicking because you want to be down the right end against the Sader defence and not in the middle of the park where we cause a lot of turnovers.

Canes are exactly who I thought they were. Just not up to the level of the title winning team
No one is up to the level of this Crusaders team. This comp is one team and a country mile to the rest.
