There is no way in the world the crusaders would butcher opportunities like we have just seen ..that’s why we may as well give them the trophy now ..and the other 4 can play for the 1st loser Super Rugby Aotearoa..

Even the Stan commentary team are pointing out the decision making in the Blues is lacking. Simply unaware of the difference scoreboard pressure makes. Take your points.

Ardie again!

Awesome so far.

Blues fucked it tho. Bigtime. Should have kept pushing the scrum instead of picking up

Yeah - that just looked panicked by Sotutu.

Looked like Channel 1 ball and he snatched it up and shovelled it out - with a dominant scrum, a wing playing flanker and a man short in the backs.

Procter started really well then reverted back to 2020.

Crusaders backs were off last night too, and they didn't take control until well into the 2nd half.

Canes win 6-0 with Blackwell off.

Canes key players (Ardie Jordie and Aumua) are stepping up big time

Blues backs are not clicking at present. But Clarke looks dangereous

Cross to Canberra and Morgan Turunui obviously bulking up to play prop in club rugby.

He's crawling along the ground

He wasn't (unsure if youre being serious though)

[Steven Harris]

@tim I agree with you , but you just the impression when it comes getting across the line , you would back them to make the correct decisions

Ummm... what was he doing then? Does he normally run with his hands and knees on the ground?

That was some pretty dumb time wasting my Clarke when the Hurricanes were still at 14

[Tim]

Perfect kick off.

[Canes4life]

Ffs Blackwell

[Steven Harris]

Caleb Clark would be the most relieved person

[Stargazer]

Ugghh, Blackwell.

Kirifi replaces Fifita, so I assume Flanders to 6 and Ardie to 8.

[Tim]

Blues can't catch anything tonight.

[KiwiMurph]

Abysmal by Rieko.

Dumb play by Kirifi to start

[Stargazer]

I expect some impact from big Karl and Ofa.

Blackwell's playing like crap but Fifita is off so he will stay on the full match

Looping lineout throws like Eklund's are too easy to pick off. They're in the air for too long.
