Blues v Crusaders

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Nice try but farking hell Duffie! White line fever much.

[Tordah]

<p>first time I've heard Nadolo speak. Ugh, high pitched Aussie accent, sounds pretty ugly</p>

[African Monkey]

<p>Great defence from us so far. We may not win the game but great to see us digging in.</p>

[Billy Tell]

<p>Enjoyable game.  Best I've seen Blues play in a long while.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>There is going to be some interesting calls tomorrow: that 4th midfield spot is probably between Moala and Tamivalu now I reckon.  Although ALB has impressed recently.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Will be interesting if Blues score first after the half.</p>

[Rancid Schnitzel]

How on earth did the ARU let him slip through their fingers?

[mimic]

<p>Is the All Black squad getting picked tomorrow or something?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Kaino reminding everyone that hes not past it.. PT, Charlie and Luatua all having big games with those hits.. </p>

[Crash]

<p>Blues showing some hunger on attack and grit in defence. </p>

[Baron Silas Greenback]

<p>Duffie needs a kick in the ass from Umaga, what a disgraceful decision from a pro player.</p>

[Tim]

Kaino is number one by a long way.

[Wally]

FFS get Ellis on!

<p>He's been on a few minutes. </p>

This is a cracking game.

[Tim]

Blues looking a bit tired. Travel might be catching up.

[Nepia]

<p>Great break by the one Crusader even Crusader fans seem to dislike, Fonotia makes a try for Ellis.</p>

[Nepia]

<p>Bit of a harsh penalty against the Blues, even TJ said so. Fonotia went down on Duffie before he  stood up, then was off his feet going for the ball and the Crusaders received the penalty.</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>I was just gonna ask that, has there been a rule change as there seem to be alot of players hitting the man on the kick through before he regains his feet (in alot of games) </p>

[Nepia]

<p>Fraser not letting the crowd influence him like Peyper did last night.</p>

[Tim]

Pretty shabby refereeing. Blues penalised twice for obstruction this half. Pathetic not to pick up Ellis.

I still like him better than any non crusaders player

<p>Even just a scrum for the accidental. Add that to the Duffie penalty and the Mo'unga offside and that's a decent run of 50/50 calls going one way. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I smell a gold watch heading Fraser's way. ;)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I actually thought Fraser had a really good first half.</p>
