QF Crusaders v Reds

@NTA said in QF Crusaders v Reds:
Had another look at the scrums. While Nonggor isn't the best - and I assume was the only one available given the absence of other THPs - he was being horribly let down by Ryan Smith behind him.
If George Bower had come on earlier it wouldn't have made much difference to the Crusaders dominance
Ryan who?

Watching some key moments this morning and holy fuck the Reds should feel aggrieved at the Reece kick, Jordan chase resulting penalty. Jordan clearly never releases and then he and the two supporting Crusaders players all go off their feet at the ruck.
Result: Williams penalises the Reds.

Munster says hi. -
@antipodean TBF, ref didnt blow a pen at the other end 2 or 3 plays prior when a reds player dove straight on Jordan (I think) on the ground when he had recovered it at the back near thier own line...so didnt blow one there against the Reds when he should have, but blew one the wrong way against the Reds 70m downfield...

Tim Ryan, Junkyard Dog, I think.
I did wonder if this would come up because I agree with @antipodean if you take it in isolation but the Reds were lucky to find themselves in a position to feel aggrieved because the Saders could feel aggrieved.

Tamaiti limping pretty badly, don’t think we’ll see him again during the playoffs.
100% should of taken him off earlier when they had the chance, especially with Bower on the bench who is more than capable. Could well pay the price for it next week

Munster says hi.I hope they do say hi at his 60+ percent win record at one of the more politicised clubs in all of rugby. I’m sure there was a coach of the year award in there as well.
