    A little concerning that Hall has completely outplayed Christie..

                @Canes4life Made several tackles in those phases. Not sure what he can do about Eklund's throwing or Christie's kicking.

                If he, or in fact any other blues player, was half as effective as Sotutu, the blues would be even at the break

                  Fair play to the Crusaders.

                  Far far far too good.

                  Deserving halftime lead.

                  6-0 would have been a poor reward for the dominance and made things interesting

                    Very poor half by Blues. Need to make some major changes.
                    Won't be surprised if ekland, choat & Christie don't come back

                      Positive first half - best field position game we’ve played all season.

                      Did anyone notice the two consecutive collisions between Reece and Sotutu, those two boys have put in a big half.

                        Grace cleaned out with a shoulder charge to the head.

                          Well played crusaders

                          13-0 might prove to be a big score with the blues not being able to secure any ball

                          @kiwiinmelb looks like they got the ABS playbook...no patience or direction, if Dalts is fit, you'd think he is on after the break.

                                13 to the Crusaders at the break. A coaching master class from Razor so far.

                                  Yeah, he's coached Christie to be a donkey and Eklund to succumb to the yips on the big stage.

                                    Sorry, NZR had the chance to appoint Razor as their AB coach. They chose Clown Foster instead.

                                      I think I heard BOK asking the TMO and was told no foul play.

                                        Saders just just too good so far.

                                        Blues shell-shocked... Lacking leadership up front, sotutu only one fronting so far. (choat had a couple of good hits in 1st 5mins.. But haven’t noticed him much since)

                                        Blues need to come out fizzing and get a 7 pointer early to make a game of it at the moment..

                                          Thought was a dodgy clean out by Matera on Christie too, Christie holding.his head....but no replays.

                                          Coverage has.been average this year
