Think Rob Penney will be sweating on some of the timings of these subs. Blackadder off at half means you’ve had two 7’s out there for 40mins in Kellow and Christie. Bell on early for Taylor in an arm wrestle while you have 2 very green props on the bench…
Might all come back to haunt him here
Always put the game away before you roll the subs

Absolutely. Especially against a Brumbies forward pack littered with Wallabies

Neither of whom have had much of an impact. You need big bodies to bully Australian forward packs.

JOC playing second five with McLeod off?
Put in 2-3 consecutive big tackles there too.

Brumbies reserve front row aren't exactly world beaters to be fair.
Crusaders can't afford to go into the play-offs shanked, and some of these guys have played some big minutes lately.

Crusaders forwards can't generate a turnover
Brumbies the best in the comp when the ball hits the deck.

Is Tamaiti Williams the most important player in the Crusaders side? Imagine if he got injured.

Him and Bower right now are irreplaceable

Valetini on the charge is a sight to see.

You would rather sacrifice a top 2 finish?

That's a great turnover.

And Ennor goes down after kicking a ball… I did say throughout the week I was told he wa a carrying multiple niggles. Sure as hell looks like it
Ikitau also goes off looking in pain.

Crusaders will be lucky to get tjtough this last 12 or so minutes

Hedging their bets, I suppose. I'm sure Penney isn't thinking it's one or the other.
