Assuming there is no ACL damage that can be anything from 2 to 8 weeks recovery time with strength and conditioning potentially on top of that so he's clearly a doubt for the French series.

Will was going to have to be rested for a couple of games anyway wasn't he - AB protocols?

Back before the end of the Super season doesn't sound too awful - except without him, the Crusaders' season might come to an end a bit earlier than hoped.

@nonpartizan he's given up on scoring tries to concentrate on the biggest whooping shitbag award.

Out of curiosity how come Sevu Reece tries have dried up?

Based on early season form it looked likely he would take the SR try record soon but since that Force match he's not scored again.

He was very industrious to start the season coming off his wing (I think one of his tries v Force was picking the ball off the base of a ruck in middle of park)..... Has Penny changed the way he is being utilized?

The tracks aren’t as dry, not as much space for wingers and I feel the Crusaders aren’t as good as Read thinks they are. They got the Canes twice when they had a weakened squad, same with the Blues and the Force and Reds also sent weaker teams over. Reece scored plenty of tries earlier in the season when he had worse players defending him.

Also, without Jordan the Saders are cooked.

[cgrant]

No, they still have Chay Fihaki.

@nonpartizan Might be just run of play, I think.

He still seems pretty involved, and the Crusaders have won half a dozen of their games comfortably in recent times. I haven't seen anything much that is stopping Sevu.

But, maybe over-eagerness is inhibiting him? If you take a pass one-step early then you end up with an assist rather than a score.

I certainly haven't noticed him bombing any tries.

[george33]

Jordan out, Barrett and Taylor?, are they being rested against Waratahs, ?

[Landers92]

Chat I’ve just been told is Will Jordans knee is a little worse than first thought and may now miss part of the finals and not make it back for the last round robin game as planned.

Oli Mathis is playing club rugby in Christchurch tomorrow. Wonder if this points towards where his future in the 15 man game lies

Chiefs fans will be ropeable if he's joined the dark side.
