And Fihaki then does something dumb

Nice pass there tho

Crusaders forwards have been well met, the backs the difference, which is interesting

Of course the forward’s are without Taylor, Bower,Matera and Grace so half the starting pack missing .

[Grooter]

poor ennor

Sure, I'd still have expected more success at the lineout drives etc

[Steven Harris]

Get a bit of that into you Ennor ..!

We have driven ok but not often

Maybe if the Fijians trained to be skilled at things other than one on one hits they might actually achieve something

[Machpants]

George bridge's first post contact metres for a few years, pity it was him running into his own man

[Steven Harris]

Yeah Kahui got a yellow by court, so yellow seems right by rules. Ennor should have HIA

[taniwharugby]

@Machpants yeah he looked like he dropped like a sack of potatoes

[Steven Harris]

@Machpants it’s absolute madness,it’s not foul play ..this game is like a dog eating it’s own tail

[hydro11]

It seems like you can't mitigate down to just a penalty.

[Stag]

@Steven-Harris it’s consistent and that’s all it can be until they relook at the rules

[taniwharugby]

@hydro11 there was one a couple of weeks back, the Crusaders reserve lock.i think, went down to penalty then he got himself red carded 5 mins.later.

[Steven Harris]

@Stag ,this is where the NRL beats Rugby hands down ..if a rule looks like crap ,the NRL will change it immediately even if it is mid season

[taniwharugby]

@Steven-Harris aren't they pretty much self governing, whereas rugby has WR who seem to have no feel for the game running things

They do a bloody nice gin and tonic in their Dublin office, tho. Whisky is good, too

[Stag]

Christie has to be very much in the discussion for the All Blacks number 7 jersey.

[Steven Harris]

@taniwharugby that’s your answer right there ,one organisation has a feel for it’s own game ..they other is quite prepared to sit back watching this debacle unfold

[Machpants]

Lol well over ten real minutes later, they call for an HIA. Pathetic work by the doctors.
