Crusaders v Rebels

[Dice]

Just needed to dive on it and slide in.

[Chris]

@Steven-Harris yep a bit soon I think

[Machpants]

Crotty and Read showing old man's endurance.

[Chris]

Awesome well deserved Crotty

[Machpants]

What a great game, socks were well and truly pulled up!

[Stargazer]

Awesome that Crotty got to score the final try of the game, and to convert it as well!

[Mokey]

66-0. Ouch.

Sunwolves all A-HEM.

[Chris]

Great comments by everyone on the thread tonight great stuff

[Steven Harris]

I think the 0 is just as impressive as the 66..sure it was one sided in the end but you have got admire the clinical way they dismantled the Rebels...gonna take some team to beat them on the run home...

[antipodean]

A game of "if it could".

If it could go wrong for the Rebels, it did.
If it could go right for the Crusaders, it did.

[Chris]

@Steven-Harris yeah me too considering the Rebels had a lot of possession

[Chris]

Even the non Crusaders supporters you must be getting excited for the WC after watching some of the skills on display add some Canes,Blues,Chiefs,Highlanders boys in there can’t wait

[Stargazer]

Most Crusaders played well, tonight.

Matt Todd was massive again, clearly showing the ABs selectors that he should be in the conversation as well.
Read deserves way more credit than he's getting. That dropped ball was nothing compared to all the things he did right tonight.
Romano showing how valuable he still is.
Barrett and Whitelock solid; Makalio very good (apart from one bad line-out throw).

In the backs, Mo'unga brilliant as usual; Hall good; Ennor and Reece great on the wing; Crotty great. And David Havili showing he should be in the ABs conversation as well.

Rebels very disappointing. They do have good players, but nothing seemed to work tonight. Agree with whoever said that people should stop booing Cooper; it's getting old and boring.

Crusaders have secured that top spot on the table; they only needed one point, and got 5.

Now the bye ...

[Stargazer]

David Havili: 2 tries, 17 runs, 188 running metres, 2 clean breaks, 6 defenders beaten, 2 offloads

Impressive.

[Chris B.]

Nice work, Razor - needs to be a bit careful with the bye week, that can work against you, but taking plenty of momentum into it.

Probably have to do without my skilful oversight for the next couple, so I hope he's ready for the training wheels to come off!

Any handle on who might be heading to Christchurch? Or too congested to tell yet?

That's your answer for now.

@nzzp I'm guessing the Chiefs - but it's largely a guess.

[MiketheSnow]

FUCK

Some of those Rebels players will do well to come back from this.
