@Canes4life We probably had better cover for Sam than Richie. For what it's worth:
Razor's overall winning percentage at the Crusaders was 83.7%.
It goes up to 85% for games that Sam played in and falls to 81.1% for games Sam didn't play.
But it goes up to 87.1% for games Richie played and falls to just 70.8% when Richie didn't play.
Richie played 93/117 games (81 wins); Sam played 80/117 games (68 wins).

That's interesting, I'm not saying Mo'unga wasn't influential because he is the most successful Super 10 the Crusaders have had and it's obvious in those numbers, but I just feel Whitelock isn't mentioned enough when people speak about that 7 year title run. To me, the Saders simply don't win all those titles without him.
He's the GOAT lock in my view.

@Canes4life Judging by what went before and what came after, I'd say all three were quite important!

Fair, I'm just glad the Crusaders don't have those three anymore. Which goes back to an earlier point on this thread, the Crusaders are definitely not the unbeatable force at home that they once were. In saying that, they'll probably figure out a way to win it this year again.

@Canes4life Well, since you're a Hurricanes fan, I'll let you in on our secret equation, which you can pass to your team.
We plan to beat the Reds tomorrow night.
The Chiefs probably only have one loss in them in the play-offs (if that) so let's not waste it while they've got a life in play.
It would then be quite helpful if you guys could lose in the cold hellhole of Canberra.
The Brumbies can come to ChCh and you guys can go to Hamilton and avenge yourselves for last year.
Crusaders-Canes final in Christchurch - bring on the fog again!

CF Sr went down for the final. Left well before the end and went to the pub because he couldn't see shit. The view was just as bad there. A farcical game

Dissapointing for all the fans it should not have been played in those conditions.
