@Steven-Harris I've noticed Sotutu more in this game.

Man I'll laugh if the crusaders choke this, an appalling attacking effort by them.
Canes most winningest team
Jeez then coach killing stupidity like that

@Donsteppa Crusaders have stuck to kicking game. Wasteful.

Only two NZ teams in the top 8 now. Wouldn't have picked that at the beginning of the season.

@nzzp I think it hit the top of the shoulder and slipped up, hitting his head. Once that happens....Very lucky not to be a penalty try.
Fair enough. I saw it with the arm staying on teh shoulder - so didn't slip up. If you slip upwards there, you're in all sorts of bother

@Jailbreak7 said in Crusaders v Blues:
Is O'Gara definitely off to France? Like what he's done with the Saders so far
No, he hasn't decided yet. Probably the coming week.

Well that was a big improvement on 54-17 last year
Blues have done better against the Crusaders than the other NZ sides this year
-
@Canes4life I Think SA maybe tough for you guys,not saying you can’t win but it’s going to be tough.
That might show how hard it has been tonight in the Stormers. V Landers game . -
@KiwiMurph said in Crusaders v Blues:
Rieko always puts the ball down like that. It is always a risk. Try though.
I'm afraid of those French refs ...
-
@Stargazer Personally I hope he stays. He's an understated presence.

@Canes4life your not wrong,Akira gets a lot of love from sectors of this forum..but if you were really honest, he was really quiet for my liking..Gibson & Robinson were solid and energetic..thought Ofa Tuangafasi had a great battle at scrum time with Moody..but the player who impressed me the most for the Blues was Melani Nanai..did not really put a foot wrong all night..
Must admit after the first half hour I thought it was gonna be a long night but they showed plenty of heart without ever really looking like winning..Saders who have had long trip back from Africa did what they had to do.. -

He's been quiet for a few weeks. The last few years he's really crushed it, but has had a subdued season.

@Chris I'm hoping the injection of Coles and Evans gives us some leadership in the pack, more to counter those Safa referees than anything. If we get 5 points in SA I will be happy.

Considering they only came back from South Africa on Monday night - and will have been battling jet lag - combined with the slippery conditions, I think it isn't that bad at all.
-
@Canes4life I am sure it will especially Coles
He maybe the point of difference.
