Crusaders v Brumbies
-
I was surprised how bad the Brumbies record was against the Crusaders. I thought they would have sneaked a win more recently
Here's the overall Crusaders v Brumbies record: 18-8 no Brumbies wins since 2009
The record in Christchurch: 11-2 last Brumbies win in 2000
Here's the results since 2010: 9-0
This is when things went bad for the Brumbies prior to this period the results were 9-8 in the Crusaders favour.
There was a competitive match in 2017 (17-13) but otherwise it's a poor record for the last decade

do the Crusaders go out of their way to find the most ill-disciplined guy in the squad, and give him the arm band?

@duluth if Jordan had also been selected would you have put Jordan on the wing?

If I was picking a full strength side Bridge wouldn't be in the starting 15
I think the best thing for Bridge's career would be to play fullback all the time. But that would mean moving to another franchise

Thanks. Yes Bridge plays a wing like a wing-FB to me, which is an employable skillset at the moment.

Wow considering they are supposed to have a bit of rivalry am surprised it has been pretty one sided for the last decade or so- probably since George Gregan retired

It's common sense, the Captain much less likely to get carded

Started reading this and thought it was @ACT-Crusader naming an All Black team.

I have visions of Matt Giteau tearing them up in a game once, which for some reason makes me think it's always close, but given that game was at Lancaster Jade Park Stadium it was pretty historic.
Mind you, who does have a good record against the Sith?

Decided park footy is more interesting than watching the Evil Empire roll through the Brumbies. Fingers crossed for an upset.
Isn't @Derpus Strayan?

For some reason he doesn't like the TT...

I still don't understand how that maul isn't a penalty when it's obvious which team took it to ground.
