Preseason - Munster v Crusaders (Feb 4th)

[taniwharugby]

Both Crusaders tries have been well worked through numerous hands, thatbwas a pearler finished by McLeod

[Kiwidom]

I think this is the way forward, playing pre season games in UK/Ireland. Bigger crowds at least

[Kiwidom]

A fair result all things considered.Good haka at the start.Macca Springer and Cullen Grace were good value. I don't rate Kemara and today didn't change my mind. Reihana unlucky at the end

[taniwharugby]

Reihana pulls a wide conversion on FT to miss the a draw.

2nd half was much better.

A few odd calls or non calls, but overall the ref was good.

Strange with a dumb yellow. No surprise there

Munster the better side, probably should’ve scored more tries. Crusaders took their handful of chances well.

It was always going to be difficult with one side mid season and another in their first match of the preseason

Reihana struggled when he came on too. Burke needs to step up when he returns from injury

[Machpants]

@Duluth minus current ABs too. Though to be fair Munster didn't have their internationals either

[Bovidae]

Is Coombes a regular starter for Munster? He was part of the Irish squad that toured NZ. They have both Synman and Kleyn in their squad but both were unavailable due to injury.

Sky NZ is obviously doing in-studio commentary for these pre-season games.

Any update on the Halfpenny injury?

Not good I hear having scans to determine.

Well I've just figured out what would make me support the Crusaders, playing an Irish team.

And then typically they let me down at the end. Wont make that mistake again.

Yeah it’s shit for him, hopefully the scans turn out not as bad as they think.

Coombes usually starts at 8. He's a try scoring machine but not in Andy Farrells plans for whatever reason.

This is Snymans 3rd season with Munster and he's played about 11 games. Been injured all the time. Just happened to be injury free for the world cup. Lucky Rassie! Then got injured again.
