Sharks v Crusaders
-
F me the Crusaders back line is shit. The only player who would probably make NZ plays for Fiji. Depressing.

Haven't been watching Havili? <br><br>
Try time. All with backs -
Try awarded and then the big screen replay shows Fonotia just in touch. Try disallowed.

Havili should be in the midfield. He is not a 15. And as you might know I am not a Fonatia fan. The crusaders attack revolves around Nadolo scoring tries out of nothing. And that's about it. -
<p>Well-deserved win to the Crusaders.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Crotty didn't seem right since that early injury in the game; couldn't be subbed off because they only had 2 backs on the bench. </p>
<p>Mo'unga looked nervous from the start. I guess this being his first overseas tour played a role in his poor kicking?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Nadolo played very well, so did Read, Whitelock, Taufua, Barrett, Franks.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I can't believe how many high tackles against the Crusaders went unpunished. That yellow card for Havili was harsh. Wacko Jaco was shit, and so were his ARs.</p> -
<p>How weird is it Beauden has a brother 2 metres tall and 112 kgs but they look so similar </p>

Really happy with that win. Total domination all over, apart from 2 runaway tries the Sharks never looked like scoring.<br><br>
Mouaga was a bit shit, was almost the second game he's cost us with bad kicking, likewise fonotia whom I thought had turned a corner last week.<br><br>
On the breakdown show during the week Ian jones did a segment highlighting the crusaders defence. We have the best tackle percentage and are the best at hitting teams behind the gain line.<br><br>
Again last night it was awesome, we are happy to play field position and defend. As long as we deny teams the chance to play that helter skelter broken field play we are gonna be pretty hard to beat playing that way. Plus our set piece is the best in the comp<br><br>
Franks, Barrett, whitelock and read all lead the defensive effort superbly.<br><br>
Good to see crotty play the whole game. -

<p>Yeah, funny how small Smith was for someone who was 6"1' and 95kgs :)</p>
<p>I guess it's because he was pretty skinny when he burst on the scene for Wellington.</p>
