    Bryn Hall showing his strengths and weaknesses. Credit to Robertson for getting the best from him, but he's limited.

    Ofa, Dalton, Rieko outstanding in the first half.

    Rieko just so much pace

      Don't judge me for being a day late.

      Shout out to the ref team, solid first half.

      Perofeta can't miss shots like that consistently.wtaf

        Compare that to the Blues sporting the likes of Eklund, old man Romano, Goodhue, Lam, Lay, Choat and Heem, none of whom would have been required in Super Rugby's hey day

        You mean in the glory days of Corey Flynn, Ross Filipo, Con Barrell, Sam Broomhall, and Adam Whitelock? All those players you named are high quality at Super Rugby level. Lay was very solid for Bristol in the UK Premiership.

          Jesus Barrett S just went for it. Insanity. Could have pulled out of that

          How did the refs miss these red cards in real time?

          Christ, ScoBa should get 8 weeks for that. Filth.

              Great answer. About as well reasoned as your original post, or your classic "Akira Ioane couldn't make the Canterbury team" posts.

              Share some of your great knowledge some time though. Please do. They'll probably be such great posts that they make the Crusaders win that game, or their players look adequate at test level.

                  @stargazer That seems pretty accurate.

                  I think Cullen Grace is worth a mention - prominent with ball in hand and made metres off the back of the scrum when needed. He looks more like an AB this season than the year he was picked. Even with several loosies ruled out there's going to be one or two unlucky guys when it comes to AB selection.

                  Newell caught my eye with a couple of powerful surges near the line when he came on.

                  Grace doesn't have enough 'X Factor'. Write him off

                          Havili's kicking has been sensational. Just not physical enough for 12 against good teams, but a hell of a player

                              6 weeks for sure. ScoBa had time to pull out. Both insane in the modern game

                                @shark Ah, so butt-hurt that you can't even manage the haughty and drawn-out strops you threw when the Chiefs won the championship and you became immensly upset that everyone viewed Rennie as a better coach than Blackadder.

                                One loss and the Blues squad is so inadequate at this level they can't possibly have won.
