Crusaders vs Waratahs

[Donsteppa]

Custard boot.

[No Quarter]

Missed again. Heartbreaking for the Tahs.

[taniwharugby]

I feel bad..I agree with Marshall on Beale shouldnt have been there.

[No Quarter]

Haha bullshit call hands the Saders the ball when they were under the pump. Sheesh.

[Wally]

They’re playing Israel’s song on the PA.

YMCA.

[Crazy Horse]

I sense another twist is about to come.

[Donsteppa]

Australian rugby really has fallen off a cliff when the Waratahs can’t close that one out...

[gt12]

Want to beat the Tahs and Wobs? Start by not using the high kick against Folau.

Once they stopped kicking to him, and limiting his time on the ball, the Tahs didn’t look half as dangerous.

Not a tip tackle at the end?

[taniwharugby]

man Goodhue makes some great reads on defence.

[gt12]

@antipodean

Looked like it should have been looked at.

To be fair they only led 29-0 late in the first half. Can’t exoect any team to go on and win from there..

[Nepia]

Aussie panel is having go at refs panel ... but, should always be neutral ref at least even.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Foxtel host blaming the ref of course.

"It's just the perception."

Dickhead.

"We have to cheat better."

[No Quarter]

Goodhue lifted the Tahs player and dropped him on his shoulder/head in the last tackle and the ref just turned a blind eye. Tahs can feel pretty aggreived after that, though if Foley could kick they would have won anyway.

[taniwharugby]

@gt12 think it ended up ok but went close to being bad I reckon.

[gt12]

Whitelock’s talk is good, talking about patience and changing small parts of the strategy. Sounds like an AB captain to me.

[nostrildamus]

@wally Israel can't be happy how the Crusaders came in hard from so far behind.

@nepia said in Crusaders vs Waratahs:

This is weird for two reasons, 1. I think I'm watching netball because of the female commentator and 2. I actually want the Crusaders to win. I feel dirty.

It put me off right from the jump - it is a game played by blokes and blokes who are part of the game instinctively know what is happening and offer better, more interesting commentary as a consequence.

[pukunui]

Oh dear. You could see it slowly unraveling after the saders scored their first try. Could really have ended up with another try or two on top of the 31 straight points.
