For Vishnu's sake... for all the wank about how SR-Aotearoa teams thrashing SR-Aus teams might be boring... or a waste of time, or whatever...
This is a fucking master-class of rugby by the top Aotearoa team "versing" the top Australia team.
An absolute versing.
Edit: at home. In what looks like a dustbowl. -
Absolutely superb!
Lucky to have witnessed this

I own land in the Selwyn district; I’m hoping that I can get my boy to be committed to the Chiefs before we move there one day. My wife has already said that she’ll automatically become a Saders fan so ive got little hope.

That solves the wife problem at least.

TMO: “unfortunately” it’s hit a red hand
Even the refs feel sorry for the reds
-
1 or 2 crap ref decisions tonite.
Not a fan of Captains Referrals, but can see their rationale.

It’s that’s sort of biased officiating that needs to be stamped out.

@act-crusader kind of funny for a neutral and given the result but yeah, in general a bit dodgy
-
@victor-meldrew refs are farked. Their. Incompetence matched only by the Aussies.
Its like watching the EPL top four play the Scottish top four.

This is far too easy. Crusaders all class.
Still 50 minutes left. Anything could happen. I’m not getting too carried away
Big task for the Reds to come back and win, but still lots of work to be done for us to secure a bonus point - that's still far from guaranteed.
Reds won't be wasting time kicking for penalties - nor kicking us much ball.
Yeah we need a BP or else we are in trouble of falling behind the other NZ sides.
Yeah - looked like Razor had them primed that winning away with a bonus point was a must to make the final.
He may well be right.

@chris-b yeah, wish we’d tightened things up to defend the bonus point last night

Picking up maximum points vs the Reds is handy for your guys.
Reds looked quite a decent team to me tonight. Crusaders were fired up and playing at finals intensity - and, to be fair, they got a few bounces that on another night they mightn't have.
I'll be surprised if the Reds don't knock someone over - and maybe more than one.
Brumbies look decent as well.

Haven't read the thread, but was wondering what others thought about Angus Scott-Young planting his arm in Ethan Blackadder's face in the 74th minute, sending him off for a HIA. It was "play on", but I think I've seen players being sent of for that during the RWC (was it Koroibete v Wales??). Will need to watch the replay, but it looked dodgy.
