Crusaders v Highlanders
-
Fuck the Crusaders. That is all
-
Typical bitching about the Saders being favoured by the ref. There were calls that went against the Saders too folks that could have easily gone the other way.
Thank fuck there is no 'final' next week 😀

Mounga was the diffference. Don't think they would have won the comp without him.
He’s been a standout for us and made up for a few deficiencies in the team that a clear work in progress.
Pretty stoked with the season given the losses we had from last season - Todd, Crotty and Franks in particular.

Don't try and pull me into your scuffle 😬

Aaron Smith and then Mounga up there as the best players in SRA, Sotutu would be there too if not for his injury (well he was still awesome, but an injury curtailed him)

Imagine Ioane hadn't been injured...

In my opinion ,The official Paul Williams apart from missing 1 or 2 things in the main had a very good game..he was spot on with most of his breakdown calls..
Personally I find myself agreeing with Justin Marshall, the Highlanders needed to take every opportunity afforded their way , and they didn’t at the end of day ..Aaron Smith has been sensational in this competition, and it was great to see him and Josh Ioane finding their combinations again .
Ash Dixon also has been superb also, these 2 have been like the backbone of this Highlanders team ..
One player I am actually quite pleased for is Micheal Collins, as person having met him on several occasions, he’s bloody good bugger, very approachable , personally I think he’s been sold a dummy by many coaches over the years attempting to convert him into a fullback .he was a brilliant schoolboy midfield back..how many players over the years have we seen played out of position..?, too many too think of.Great effort from the Landers, but they just came against a team that knows how to nail opportunities..Cody Taylor was superb , Richie Mounga again dangerous as ever , and I thought Sione Havilli bought a lot off the bench and more ..

Frizzel was huge, Smith tireless and ridiculous pass. Cemented a starting spot in black I'd say.
Parkinson worked all day and must have etched his name on the squad list.
Ioane simply sparkling and must be creating selection headaches.
Special mention to DHunt, back to his best and being selected to start like he should've been last year.
