Was Tony Morland bought in to talk about their heroic effort in the 2009 final?

Two more Super Rugby titles than Carter...
Probably not a bad thing having a journeyman or two speak amongst the legends given the current Crusaders team. Not a dig, just an acknowledgment that the current crop aren't (yet) of the same ilk as some of the champion teams of past.

They are flushed with cash in the Tron. Tough for the red n blacks to compete with that….
-
Given the contrast in play between Bryn and Drummond and how we went with the latter on the pitch, Bryn was pretty pivotal to our success

lol was waiting for that.
I think we all knew I was referring to ABs greats and a player like Mounga… then you throw in a Bryn Hall with them. Apologies if that wasn’t obvious enough….
Why not throw Bryn Hall in he was there like the others I said ex Players not legends, I was letting
Crusaders supporters know who was there. -

Have the Chiefs got Saders fans on edge early?

Yep they have me on edge Nervous as Fuck for this one.

Bryn Hall is a great example for the young players, in the leadup they'll hear all about a whole lot of the oppo stars who are highly fluffed in the papers and on the internet forums where the pig-island circlejerk writes you off as a "journeyman".
But Bryn Hall knows how to win finals.

I mean, Bryn Hall is absolutely a journeyman - but not sure anyone is writing journeymen off? They're crucial parts of most teams.
