Brumbies v Crusaders
-
-
That's a good first half from the Crusaders. Nullified Brumbies' strength and took their opportunities. Good scrambling defence too. Discipline will be key in the second half to frustrate the Brumbies.
-
@Chris very professional first half performance from the Crusaders ..just doing what they have to do at this stage .
-
-
@antipodean pretty clear tactic to kick into space behind Brumbies, turn them around. Has worked well so far.
-
A good Crusaders first half but the Brumbies have played right into their hands with all these silly mistakes. Will be a big ask to come back from here.

Good half Crusaders!
Probably best 40 I have seen from them this season. In saying that the Brumbies played their worst 40. 23-5 half time. It's going to take some half from the Brumbies to win this one.
Agree but wouldn’t say it’s over yet. All of the first 8 have looked the goods
Brumbies have looked dangerous out wide

@Nevorian You visit any school in Australia at the moment and the quality of mullets on display warms my heart.
I know have a teenager son who rocks the mullet
I saw a classic Billy Ray Cyrus the other day and had to give the kid a compliment.

@chimoaus I agree , you never know the way cards are dished out ..

Crusaders look switched on tonight, mentally they look in a great state. A contrast to the last few rounds.

4th week of their tour been a long month for the Crusaders

@Chris, it's the post 3/4 of season refocus - seems to happen with them every year.
Complacency inevitably creeps in so got to reset the switch again..

Yep they need to switch on business end of the season coming.
-
Brumbies really missing Lolesio and Valentini tonight. Arguably their two best.
-
That's good defensive work at the maul. A key component to disrupting the Brumbies' way of playing.
