    Most interesting part of this is :

    It turns out the Crusaders were struggling to determine why Jordan, a World Cup winner with the NZ under-20s last year, wasn't feeling 100 per cent.

    "What it came to, it wasn't a concussion problem, but more if an inner-ear thing which was causing vertigo and a few vision problems. It just took a while to nut that out," Jordan said.

    Jordan, who earlier this week was named Ta$man Mako "player of the year", was eventually cleared to play in July, but did not see the field down the stretch.

    For Aussie viewers it looks like this game is now live on Fox tonight. My emails paid off.

    @chris-b Wasn't that the same problem Ben Smith had last year?

    @stargazer Certainly along the same lines.

    Pretty good news, I think, for Will!

    Can you get the Magpies game live as well? My emails must be going to their junk folder.

    Entertaining game thus far. Ta$man with most of the possession and territory, and close to scoring a couple of times. If Jordan hadn't thrown a hospital pass, Alaimalo would have crossed the line. Some brilliant passes from D Havili; barnstorming runs from Aumua; but the Canty defence holding. Now Canterbury on attack.

    Hilarious, just before that penalty goal, Hunt was stealing a few extra metres and Drummond kicks the ball back to where the penalty should be taken. Hunt puts the kicking tee on the spot where he wants to take the penalty, and Drummond picks it up and throws it to the right spot. Both grinning.

    Great try from Havili. Best player on the field at the moment.

    Nice try from Havili - surely one of either Strange or Parkinson should have been included at lock for ABs wider training squad? Don't get me wrong I like that Romano has been included, but hell we are leaving the burden yet again of a heavy workload to be shouldered by a few

    @shadowtrooper Way too many inexperienced players in that ABs extended squad. Romano brings some much needed experience. Don't think his workload has been much heavier than that of Strange or Parkinson.

    An Aucklander living in Australia, you sound like a real piston wristed gibbon 🙂

    I don't know whether it's finals' nerves, but Jordan hasn't been good thus far.
