        Score as it stands very much flatters the Crusaders, Blues should have won by a lot more.

        I actually disagree. The first half the Blues edged. In the second half, the Blues dominated but left a lot of points out there. Most of that was due to mistakes or poor decisions from key players (like Tuipulotu and Telea who otherwise had very good games).

            @Gunner

            He always has the dropsies. He plays like he's bathed in baby oil before every game. Slipping through 10 tackles, and then dropping the ball 3 or 4 times.

              Go the Chiefs next week

              I hope the ref isn’t BOK so the Crusaders will get punished for their tactics

                You could almost say the errors kept the scores closer than they should be. Or that it flattered the crusaders?

                    What you’ve described is the score flattering the Crusaders…

                    So yea, like I said 😉

                      I only saw 2nd half but 30-0 would have been more accurate score line to reflect it.

                        A few Crusaders with some poor tackle stats

                        Grace missed 8, Hannah missed 7

                        Contrary to what TJ and Marshall said the misses were spread out across the game. Crusaders missed 44 tackles, but they actually missed 23 in the first half

                            What is up with the hooker standing in play to throw to the line out. When was that legal

                                  BOP fullback, has been in Scotland for a few years and just came home last year

                                  He runs great lines. Not sure on his kicking from hand also he struggled on defence in an earlier game. Plenty of potential, I think he’s an upgrade on JRK

                                    Well that was easy. Easily could have scored four or five more, which is enjoyable with a 20 point win in very wet conditions.

                                    Great wet weather tactics from us, completely dominated them. Picked a good game to go to.
