Crusaders v Highlanders
-
-
Stupid by Fakatava
-
That should be about 3 red cards
-
Fuck these Highlanders are dumb.
Why kick for 20 metres and a contestable position when you can set a scrum with against 14? -
That's how you find touch Hunt
-
Of all the nights Hunt picks to have a crap night out ,Story of the game right there
-
Highlanders catch pass skills are REALLY poor.
-
You absolutely have to respect the Saders.
Fuck the Landers are a dumpster fire.
-
Ugh 40 minutes of my life wasted.

With Hunt it’s week on week off though
-
The Landers would have won if they had a better 10. Hunt is mud.
-
This loss is on you Mitch Hunt. Missing that penalty kick at goal from the 15, and the penalty you kicked dead
-
Someone help the Highlanders

Nah they're fluffybunnies

Can't believe they didn't take the points near the end.

That's a bit unfair on mud based on his performance tonight.

Can’t punish him either because all they’ve got is a geriatric as a replacement.
Won’t give Koroi a chance.
But Ioane was the problem. Yeah right.
-
Right. I could have been watching Slow Horses while that mess was on.
Waste of time. -
Also, how average were the Crusaders. I feel the better team lost tonight.
-
-
@crucial Josh Ioa… oh wait.

Almost all weeks this is a great call. I'm not sure it is this week. Landers handed that W to Crusaders.
-
That was atrocious. We were shithouse and the Highlanders were worse.
Winza win though!

Mitch Hunt did.
But when the Saders got a chance, they’d find their GOOJFC - steal a re-thrown line out, get a guy over the ball to make a steal, time your attack on the HB.
-
The last 20 mins highlighted the problems the Highlanders are having this year. Good field position but not clinical enough to take some opportunities.
Gilbert played like he was still a Cantab.

How quickly people forget how shit ioane got, he made hunt look like the best option for a good 12 months
-
Well done Crusaders. Holding on against the odds and playing to the letter of the law vastly better. Far too many errors from Highlanders midfield. Why oh why did Fakatava not grubber and chase when he got isolated after a great run? Blackadder was superb while other forwards looked ponderous. And Reece was great too.
-
It'll be interesting to see how Fakatava goes in his next start. There'll be more pressure on kicking and game management etc. Good signs tonight though.
-
I thought it was going to be a hiding so I’m nothing more than disappointed with how close we got
We’ll done to the saders, easy to point all the faults with people but we had a lot of ball and territory and they managed to hang on, that take it’s own kind of skill
I’ll take Winning when playing poorly over failing to win when given every chance
-
Pretty average display from a pretty average Crusaders against the bottom side at home. They're there for the taking if anyone's good enough.
-
Happy with that win we played shit.
The Landers were the better team tonight but we will take the points. -
Bitch Hunt played like he used to for Canterbury. A. Smith had one of his A. Smith bad-decision-making (tm) nights bigtime. Tony Brown's parties always suck.
Sevu Reece was top value, but because Will Jordan only got the ball about 3 times MOM goes to Future All Black Captain Ethan Blackadder.
-
@arhs thought Fletcher Newall was good while he was on the paddock ,looks one for the future Usually there’s a certain inevitability that the Crusaders will run over the top of the visiting team when playing at home but it never eventuated
It looked like one team who was throwing everything at the game but lacking the polish or the accuracy to get the job done
And a home team that was nowhere their best but still somehow hung on to win .
For all its closeness I found it a very poor game in terms team activation especially in and around the backline play -
I hope Scott Robertson or Jason Ryan has Kianu Kereru-Symes on speed dial.
-
Frizell finishes with 6 tackles made, 7 missed. I don't care if you can run for 59 metres, if you are missing 7 tackles, you don't belong in a black jersey.

By being played out of position or not at all? I'm pretty sick of Hunt now, his 40% garbage, 40% average, 10% Nice and 10% FML just isn't worth it. Can't we try Smith or Fakatava at 10?
Kicking the ball away aimlessly and constantly really doesn't help - what's up Tony?
Nice of the ref to make it 15v15 on the field for the last few minutes though....

He was around the squad pre season.He must be getting a call up.
