Lions v Crusaders

ShadowTrooper

Is the rugby ball unfamiliar to them? Have they substituted it for the Kookabura ball perhaps?

akan004

Should have taken the three. Get some points on the board!

Who the fuck said Perry could scrum?

gt12

Bit of a free for all at the ruck. Marx kind of game.

gt12

WTF was that Goodhue?

Execution letting us down sadly. Just feel we're going to be blown away in the last twenty. I hope I'm wrong

Who the fuck said Perry could scrum?

When you're a prop and can't seem to survive on your feet longer than the "e" in "set", you might want to take a look at your technique.

Crotty clearly not better than Laumape, must be injured right?

Still thoroughly perplexed as to why Hunt passed the ball when he was one stride from falling over the try line with no defender in front of him.

I feel the crusaders would be performing a LOT better with a different 1, 9, 10.

Geez, Perry and Hunt. So bad.

Hunt has possibly cost the Saders 17 points .. those 2 unnecessary forward passes could have been tries. Missed penalty kick.
Perry can't scrum.

Crotty, Taufua, Havili and Sam Whitelock playing very well though.

They need to up their game. Difficult at altitude, but they are better than this.

Bones

Gotta love Stransky. Aside from the times the Crusaders would have scored but made mistakes, they haven't created opportunities. Riiiight...

gt12

Crotty is injured, and in other news, the earth is round.

gt12

Fucking hell Hunt.

Bones

@gt12 can't buy a trick!

akan004

Finally. Needed that desperately.

johanek

Nice work skip

Bones

@akan004 you get the feeling with that territory and possession the crusaders may have a decent chance of dominating this second half.

Hunt!

gt12

My god they worked hard for that.

Of course it’s being checked.

akan004

@bones As long as they don't suffer from the effects of the altitude like in the final last year, they should be ok.

Goodhue scores!

gt12

Justice there. Terrible forward pass missed

johanek

Mataele! He's having a great season, makes things happen whenever he comes on
