Highlanders v Crusaders
-
<p>TAB odds have come back to $1.87 for each team. Must have been a bit of money on the highlanders.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm really excited for this game. Crusaders have had a pretty easy run to the top of the table. Quite easily our toughest match of the season so far.</p> -

<p>Mark Stafford from the TAB said last week all the money was going on the Chiefs right up until just before k/o when money started to go on the Highlanders, so maybe Highlander fans like to leave it late!</p> -

<p>Cheer up crusaders fans. You're getting Romano and Crockett starting ahead often two other guys and you're splitting hairs? I think you'll survive the forward battle.<br>

<p>I think we have to dominate the forward battle convincingly, because we're going to get beaten by their backs. For me, that entails running out our strongest pack at the start - so I'd be going with Moody over Wyatt - happy enough with Romano (I'd be starting Crotty).</p>

<p>Like Sammy, I'm very much looking forward to this game, which is huge in terms of the NZ conference.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Crusaders win and it's pretty much a two-way dogfight vs the Chiefs, with the other teams probably too far behind to make up the gap with just five games left - and us with some decent breathing space at the front and genuine favourites to win the conference.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Highlanders win and suddenly a blanket is covering the field and we'll be looking more like pretenders. </p> -
Just home in time. Go the landers.<br><br><br>
Think limas boot could be the difference. ...well hoping so -

<br>
Because there's no seating there -
We look sharp in attack early on.

What a run by Wyatt. I thought it was Codie
-
Owen Franks pin your ears back bro. <br><br>
Reado in -
Franks and Crockett both have line breaks, lol.<br><br>
Great finish from Reado.
