Yeah, you can't even call him a flat track bully given his inability to dominate on a flat track...

@chris They're holding their own, getting bettered yes, but doing enough on their own scrum.
Great half from Moana Pasifika. Yes, they'll most likely go on to lose and probably heavily, but they've shown enough in that half to suggest there's something to work with and have shown great heart on defence. Few dodgy Crusaders passes that haven't been called as well.

Not sure it will be scrappy Crusaders made 10 changes to their starting side.
Fuck all combos and Fuck all match fitness in some of those crusaders:
Newell,Blackadder,TTT,McLeod,Punivai,Fihaki
Naholo,Pole,Gardiner,Finau all first minutes of the year same as the MP,boy’s -

A good example of how a team like the Saders get leeway bias from the ref.
Lesser skilled teams get watched closer for mistakes.
Just makes them even harder to overcome -

Newell and Bower are eating the MP props at scrum time .
Same thing happened in MP preseason game vs Chiefs.
The Chiefs WTG props.
I like the aggression in the tackle by MP. Time-Stowers is doing good work off the back of the scrum. Aumua looking strong too.

That’s a half that MP should be extremely proud of ..I think a few people on this forum are missing a trick here ..this is a team made of many players who would probably struggle to make NZ wider training squads ..they are showing more heart than than the Fiji Drua in my opinion ..so much defensive will definitely tell in the 2nd half ..just for the record folks ,have look back at the Saders first year in 1996 ..and they had the pick of best 150 players in NZ ..not 180-210
