Holy shit, crying just because you beat the saders in a round robin? The state of it...

nah, it's legit. Aus went like 25-0 against NZ sides; beating the historic benchmark setters is massive.

Australia has been really good, and the kiwi sides collectively aren't at the level of the past. Going to be a tasty Bledisloe this year

Crusaders were appalling. Almost stole it.

Ref should not have allowed the Tahs to waste time at the end then kick it out and end the game. PK was awarded with time on clock, game should restart.

You are grasping at straws..

Heartless. Good passion IMO

After getting pumped so much and 50 shipped last week against us. That is what you want to see from your team.

I loved it. Good on him

yuo know that guy isn't a Crusaders supporter, and is a proper ref right?

[chimoaus]

Serious question, what did Whitelock contribute to the game?

The start of a new era...

I did laugh. Harrison is a clown of a commentator.

Havili and Goodhue demonstrated they're not the answer for the All Black's midfield.

Bloody nothing.

[KiwiMurph]

The best Cantabrian on the field was the Tahs flanker Gamble

A Test level combination with an AB hooker to cover lock injuries? Oops.

[chimoaus]

On current form Luke Romano would be my starting lock come July.

[ACT Crusader]

Can’t ship 17 points to nil in the first half without expending a lot of energy to try and get back into it.

Well done Tahs. Love what it meant to the young Tahs 1st 5.

Disappointing that some of our bench players even looked out on their feet in the final quarter too. TTT looks a shell of the player from 2 seasons ago. Very laboured in attack.

@broughie said in Waratahs v Crusaders:

@Kirwan they used to dominate in the forwards but they don’t anymore.

Whielock looked old tonight. Crusaders backrow badly dominated too.

[Kirwan]

Tahs won the facial hair game too. Great Mo.

Goodhue gets a pass for now. Coming back from long term injury means you can't judge him yet

Just like the bloke blowing the whistle at Leichardt?

Maybe. Akira was straight back to a high standard.

I think being outside DH was the biggest problem for him, so gets a pass for that alone.

[KiwiMurph]

Anyone seen @Derpus

[Machpants]

Looks like the pre season predictions of NZ whitewash we're pretty far from reality

[Kirwan]

So four missed tackles from DH in end. Grace joined Christie for missing three each.

Crusaders just got owned in the breakdown at times. Only part of their game that was the usual standard was the scrum.

Nah, nothing to be miserable about
