    If the Saders are a chance in this comp, this is how they’ll win it. Tight attack with the odd flourish, defensive dominance and strangling the life out of the opposition. Limited game plan, but effective when it works

    Isn’t that how they usually win it in these conditions?

      Fk sake Sky Sport get Taylor Johnson off your commentary team. What a stupid thing to say to the Reds coach. Embarrassing.

      Second stupid thing she’s said tonight.

      What did she say?

      Basically, “final 40 minutes of the season, what did you say to the players”

          Yeah, but this year that’s all they’ve got in any conditions (maybe Jordan genius moments aside)

              Reece with a very quiet game. Not a night for the wingers, but he didn't seem to go looking for work like he normally does.

                  If you think he was quiet then I’d hate to know what you think of their other winger 😂

                            Yeah they've seemed very unconvincing this season, but just got the job done. Was always surprising to me seeing them at the top of the table. Not your typical crusaders crusade.

                            Tbh Chiefs, Canes and Blues are all better to watch this year. All three are a chance to win the comp, but if Chiefs don’t take it, it rates as another choke for me.

                            All three of those teams can take it to this Saders team at home IMO, especially if Williams is out.

                              4 degrees, freezing rain, a comfortable win and you dickheads are criticising the wingers
                              They showed plenty of wide shots….., the game plan was for them to stay wide and deep and diffuse the reds kicking game. Which they did very well

                              “Looking for work” would risk being out of position in a game where field position won us the match

                                          @SammyC said in QF Crusaders v Reds:

                                          4 degrees, freezing rain, a comfortable win and you dickheads are criticising the wingers
                                          They showed plenty of wide shots….., the game plan was for them to stay wide and deep and diffuse the reds kicking game. Which they did very well

                                          “Looking for work” would risk being out of position in a game where field position won us the match

                                          On attack you mental midget.

                                          @antipodean obviously I realise that

                                          Don’t the reds have more turnovers than very other team in the comp? They got 21 of them last week

                                          If he’s looking for the work around the ruck on attack and the reds turn the ball over he’s out of position.

                                          Gameplans change in the cold and wet
