Crusaders v Highlanders

Expecting to get shafted doesn’t seem to make getting shafted any easier…

Really poor crowd

It’s Melbourne bro, one rugby game is what most can take. Plus the 6pm start doesn’t work great for getting into town.

Crowd seems to have got better at half time. Quite a few Rebels jerseys up my end of the field now.

How the flying fuck was that lineout not blown up as "not straight"? Whitelock had to take out outside his left shoulder ffs.

The crowd looks to be building on TV.

Followed up by a shit no look flick pass by Havili.

Tom Christie offers fuck all ball in hand

[ACT Crusader]

@KiwiMurph definitely harder to offer anything when you don’t hold on to it or catch it….

Should move Ethan to 7 and have Gardiner at 6.

I think I would prefer Ennor and LF to switch. RM, Havs, Ennor just lack direct penetration for me vs competent teams.

[chimoaus]

Lol as I say that Havs strolls through.

@Canes4life a bit of yellow and black in the crowd too. Quite a few Wellington Lions jerseys too.

Ennor looks a million bucks compared to Goodhue early doors

an excellent defensive cross kick.. can't work out why more teams don't use them

[Canes4life]

That’s far too easy.

There was space for an extra kick but neither CGB or Gilbert pulled the trigger

You did say competent, Highlanders don't apply, they're a fucking shower

The English 10 is really struggling, lots of errors that have led to points.

[ACT Crusader]

Man, Landers just shovelling ball across the field. No one running on. No urgency. Bit sorry really.

Comms are hard to take

Nisbo busts out the “too big, too strong” for Havili when all that was really needed was a “good line”

SBW continues to be the worst person to be given a mic since Ed Sheeran

[Tim]

NPC backline.

[KiwiMurph]

Dawai got the ball in space and got ran down by the first defender then turned over at breakdown. Talent deficient.
