    I did laugh. Harrison is a clown of a commentator.

    Havili and Goodhue demonstrated they're not the answer for the All Black's midfield.

    Serious question, what did Whitelock contribute to the game?

    Bloody nothing.

    The best Cantabrian on the field was the Tahs flanker Gamble

    A Test level combination with an AB hooker to cover lock injuries? Oops.

    On current form Luke Romano would be my starting lock come July.

    Can’t ship 17 points to nil in the first half without expending a lot of energy to try and get back into it.

    Well done Tahs. Love what it meant to the young Tahs 1st 5.

    Disappointing that some of our bench players even looked out on their feet in the final quarter too. TTT looks a shell of the player from 2 seasons ago. Very laboured in attack.

    @Kirwan they used to dominate in the forwards but they don’t anymore.

    Whielock looked old tonight. Crusaders backrow badly dominated too.

    Tahs won the facial hair game too. Great Mo.

    Goodhue gets a pass for now. Coming back from long term injury means you can't judge him yet

    Crusaders were appalling. Almost stole it.

    Ref should not have allowed the Tahs to waste time at the end then kick it out and end the game. PK was awarded with time on clock, game should restart.

    You are grasping at straws..

    yuo know that guy isn't a Crusaders supporter, and is a proper ref right?

    Just like the bloke blowing the whistle at Leichardt?

    Maybe. Akira was straight back to a high standard.

    I think being outside DH was the biggest problem for him, so gets a pass for that alone.

    Looks like the pre season predictions of NZ whitewash we're pretty far from reality

    So four missed tackles from DH in end. Grace joined Christie for missing three each.

    Crusaders just got owned in the breakdown at times. Only part of their game that was the usual standard was the scrum.

    Havilli has missed 3 tackles already.

    That's when he's not putting his teammates under pressure on attack.

    He's having a mare isn't he? He's not the lone ranger there though. I struggling to see a Crusader I think is going well, let's see if they can improve in second half.

    Prop opposing Bell is doing his job.

    Yep a few did job, but not a lot excelled at job. Waratahs were a lot better team all round I thought.

    I hate to say it but even Sam Whitelock looking like he closer to 40 than 35 today.

    Akira had a few weeks off, not an entire year+

    Nah, I just thought it was stupid the way the player was able to wait for time to tick off and then tap it and kick it out. Not sure what could be done about it but it was stupid.

    Former ref - and a bad one at that.

    Pfft, a few weeks. His first game this season.
