Crusaders 2024

No dif journalist and I think his questions were fine. Penney was defensive and very short with his answers, he would've looked a fuck load better if he had taken the questions with maturity and expanded on them. If you take one of the greatest ever rugby teams from the peak of awesome straight, no decline, just straight to shit in one season, you gotta expect tough questions and learn how to deal with gobshite reporters
EDIT: There were rumours of complaints around the chopping and changing before the cunterview

and to be completely honest I don’t feel sorry for them.
I am shocked....deeply shocked!!!
I've rung TVNZ to see whether they want to lead with this "Fan of other team has no sympathy" story in their 6 pm bulletin!
Is that all you took out of that whole comment? Lol. Making a comment and hurting a Crusaders fans feelings, wouldn’t read about it! 😂
I am pretty sure you didn't hurt his feelings

I'd be more hurt if people were feeling sorry for us.
I'm pleased to see people revelling in it. With just a touch of trepidation lest we turn out to be some sort of rugby playing Jason Vorhees, who somehow come back from certain death to dismember their favourites in the play-offs*.
*Don't worry, I suspect the credits are about to roll. Jason will have to wait for the next episode!

Jokes and sarcasm don’t get picked up well across messages do they, nor do they on this page haha. It’s only a bit of banter mate. Oh well, appreciate your input though

@Chris-B evidence he was the problem all along?
-
@antipodean The Scotsman looks to be doing a decent job - but, there might have been some "just give it to Ardie and stand back and watch" play in the past.

Not that this is really ground breaking news anymore or anything but I have heard from an extremely reliable source that the Crusaders are pushing very hard to get Mounga back for next season.
If there were any doubts around those stories just being rumours, they can definitely be put to bed.
I didn’t ask any other questions about what the chances were with him getting out of his contract etc but from what I understand Japan clubs aren’t keen on giving early releases.

Very very hard to get out of a Japanese contract,However Todd Blackadder is the coach of Ritchies club in Japan that may help.
I hear maybe another ex AB maybe on his way back from Japan for 2025. -

Hopefully back with us if that’s true but I could see the Chiefs or Crusaders making a push for someone like him.

Tamati Ellison realising he might not be getting that Head coaching job as soon as he thought
-
@SouthernMann Could Todd Blackadder comeback to coach Saders and bring Richie and few others back?
-
-
@Landers92 Does Richie Mo'unga want to come back though? The only time he has every talked about this, he seemed adamant that he wasn't interested in a return to NZ rugby?
If no Mo'unga next year, who does start at 10 for the Crusaders in 2025?
