QF - Lions v Crusaders

[gt12]

Ball security now and Saders fuck up another chance

[gt12]

Lions are a good team. However, the Crusaders are playing like fluffybunnies.

[Tordah]

<p>Crotty with a try against the posts. Lions defence is pretty staunch so far. 15-10 bad guys</p>

[gt12]

Crotty gets there!

[gt12]

They needed that - 15-10 after 35 with the shitty start they've had and they'd have to be happy.

[Tordah]

<p>whole Lions team offside by at least a metre from that kickoff, laughable officiating that</p>

[Tordah]

<p>knock on in the tackle by Lions van Rensburg missed</p>

<br>
So bad, even the JP coms commented on it.

[KiwiMurph]

Todd shrugged off...

<br>
Missed and slipped tackles are killing the crusaders

[gt12]

Moody missed.

[gt12]

On the angle - there's no way Crockett took it there.

[KiwiMurph]

You dont often see Crusaders pack get driven over like that.

[antipodean]

<p>How on earth did he give that scrum penalty? The overhead was clear that the Lions drove sideways.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Then to give the try after 30 seconds of wrestling is a joke.</p>

[gt12]

That's the penalty for contesting

<p>Not tall enough to play against South Africans.</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>It's hard playing against Joubert.</p>

[KiwiMurph]

Footage shows Lions clearly got that maul try down early - it just took forever for Joubert to call it.<br><br>
Looked like a home town call on the scrum though.

[gt12]

22-10 and the crusaders are pretty fucked.<br><br>
They've been screwed by a few calls, screwed by a good Lions team (important to remember that), and pretty fucking useless the rest of the time (missed tackles, dropped balls).<br><br>
I can't see them winning, but I guess I stay up and see.

The only thing to ask at scrum time is which team is going forward before the collapse. <br><br>
That's it. No other considerations required.
