The Silver Fern

How have the canes ended up in the position of having the worst players at the Crusaders to ever wear the 9 & 10 jerseys as their back up options off the bench ????

@Darth-Sader looked like Taylor came from behind the last feet and then tackled him as he ran past the ruck 🤷‍♂️

That was one of the worst pieces of reffing I have seen in a long, long time.

Maybe has missed a lot of obvious stuff and is playing a ridiculous amount of advantage for knock ons. I really don’t think he is up to this level.

Seems like Drua fans have had enough, looks to be a very poor crowd.

In reality the Crusaders aren’t playing any better than they did last year, just getting a bit more luck. They will come unstuck in a big way if they don’t start improving soon.

@MN5 it’s not the fact she is a woman, its the fact she is a terrible commentator. But not really surprising that you’re struggling to grasp that…

What in the hell is up with the woman commentating the 7’s? She is absolutely horrendous, how can this be allowed to happen???????

@MN5 he is clearly not in the frame to even be considered, so sits with every other average super player who also don't get constant dialogue with the AB coaches…

@Gunner I totally areee, on the flip side Egan has been outstanding.

RTS has gifted everything to Manly so far, he has been terrible on the wing, every point has been scored through his horrendous defence and mistakes.

@KiwiMurph if your saying that Blackadder has limited physical impact then you have rocks for brains…

@Old-Samurai-Jack no, nothing wrong with McClouds speed, he has played plenty of games on the wing.

To be honest even with the score it wasn’t a great performance by the Crusaders, 30 missed tackles will get punished by the top teams and the handling was average in perfect conditions. Plenty of improvement still needed. Blackadder and Grace were outstanding again and Jordan is Jordan. Still plenty of work to do going forward.

Ioane falls over the line from 5 meters out and acts like he is the prince of centres…

Not a lot of promising signs so far.

Well that game has dropped the high quality start to the season right in the toilet…

The tahs player was leading with his head into the tackle. Plenty of mitigation there, he was called plank for a reason…😏

@frugby i can’t believe the Hurricanes signed Hohepa, he was abysmal for the Crusaders every game he played.

@antipodean do you always have to be the dickhead, give it a rest.
