Crusaders vs. Highlanders

No Quarter

Aaron Smith with a garbage kick followed by a poor pass

I've been saying he should start v the Lions due to his sharp pass but he's way off his best at the moment, TJP is the better option right now.

No Quarter

Was that a deceptive camera angle or did Jackson miss the most obvious knock on of all time?

taniwharugby

@No-Quarter missed 2 I reckon

taniwharugby

shoulda been a penalty there...deliberate knock on

taniwharugby

wow....rough

Crazy Horse

Jackson has forgotten what city he is in.

Tim

Crusaders putting in a "last 20 minutes Blues" like performance here.

taniwharugby

Crusaders seem to be rushing things...HIghalnders rushing up at everything and Crusaders shovelling it out

Rembrandt

did fekitoa just make 3 tackles in a row? he's certainly been on the improve

taniwharugby

@Rembrandt defence never really been the issue with Fekitoa

gt12

As he proved with that ridiculous pass

taniwharugby

he saw that off side but not the same one at the ruck immediately before

gt12

Get the draw first?

taniwharugby

Gee, NAholo is a bit dumb with people in the air isnt he!

gt12

22 a piece with 4 left.

Crazy Horse

Two kicks in a row at ruck time and Naholo played the man on the air. All ignored.

taniwharugby

@Crazy-Horse unfortunately bit of an issue with him, playing the man in the air

gt12

Sopoaga with a shocking kick and now the Saders have the territory they need to win

KiwiMurph

So Sopoaga butchers the kick and in the first Highlanders Crusaders Sopoaga butchered the drop goal option.

taniwharugby

gonna be about 40m penalty attempt to break the deadlock
