Reds v Crusaders

Reds looked shit when Hegarty had to move to 10 against the Highlanders
They have a chance against the Crusaders in Brisbane if JOC is back. If not they are screwed.

Will be at this game. First one in ages. Should be a very good crowd.
If the Crusaders bring something approaching their A game the Reds are fücked.

That sucks for bridge

By Crusaders standards, that’s a pretty weak bench, so there might be some hope for the Reds there.
Apart from that, it seems that Lester will be on the wing for a while. That starting back three has plenty of power but there could be some question about high ball ability? Hard to fault the back line though.
Saders by
plenty I’d say10 now that I see that O'Conner and others will be back. -
Reds almost back to full strength. This is going to be a belter.

In addition to George Bridge having his appendix removed:
while regular Captain Scott Barrett is recovering after being medically ruled out of last week’s game against the Brumbies. The Crusaders have opted to give Barrett this week off as well, but he is expected to join the team in Australia next week.
Tom Sanders also won't make the trip to Brisbane later today due to a nasal fracture ...

Nasal fracture? Do they think they’re writing for a scientific journal or something? Whatever happened to just your plain “broken nose”?

I know they’re probably running out of cattle but I would have dropped Ennor. At least to the bench. He pretty much cost his team a 14 point buffer last week. That Superman dive was one of the worst cases of white line fever I’ve seen.

Get your point about the writing and I'm no doctor, but possibly it is actually bone damage rather than the more usual cartilage displacement.

I don’t think that makes any difference to what you call it.

It will make significant difference to the time it takes to heal. Maybe that is what they were getting at? Who nose I didn't write it.

Hmm. Doesn’t pass the sniff test.

Snot a great way write either way.

Agree. Completely on the nose.

Did you see it though? I would've tried to come up with a better name for it than "broken nose" too.
It was more like "somebody stood on that ripe banana".

Then nasal fracture must be inadequate as well because it’s the exact same thing. How about smashed nose or destroyed nasal appendage?
Badly broken nose would have done it. Nasal fracture is just a wank way of saying broken nose. -
@rancid-schnitzel Ennor was pretty dire last week I thought. Another week is not going to make him suddenly Super rugby "fit".
