Crusaders v Lions

[Chris]

Bridge always puts himself in smart positions to run the great lines for try’s
And always covers brilliantly Awesome work rate very Ben Smith like

[Stargazer]

Sevu Reece is something special! Crazy speed and offloads.
I loved that Cory Jane like fend from David Havili in the lead-up to Sevu Reece's first try.
Bridge had a good comeback from injury, but still room for improvement. He can be happy with his first 65 minutes after not playing for a month.

I listened to the radio commentary and Corey Flynn had some things to say about the scrum haha. For example, the Lions were pulling back a couple of times just when the Crusaders started pushing.
Whitelock was a monster. Awesome.

Although Drummond played better than in his first few games, Hall is still miles better.
Punivai had a good debut game. Did well on defence.

I lived in Saderland 2000-2003.

I'll take whatever NZ team is most likely to win.

But fuck they're good.

My position is NZ teams 1 2 3 4 & 5.

And i'd really like the Blues not to be last ( this year ... )

[Chris]

@booboo Blues have some tough games Crusaders away and Hurricans home and away

Not a bad comparison actually. Howlett was probably my favourite player at the Blues and I see a lot of similarities in Bridge’s game to him.

They like to swerve with pace rather than step. Both run excellent lines - right place right time guys.

Gee we like a flash in a pan eh! Reece is Masaga 2.0.

Hungus Reece doesn’t have the same ring to it though.

[Yeetyaah]

Do you guys think Reece will stay with the Crusaders?

[Chris]

@Yeetyaah Yeah I do Negotiations well under way so I hear
