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

Actually they are legal now. Are you serious about the throw ins?

Who is this Forbes character? Goes ok
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

Agreed
Thought he was the difference in the backs

Oh hi @African-Monkey
@Bones HI how's it going?
Yeah, just watching now, and yes, I'll concede, the Crusaders are in full rebuild. A lot of kids in the pack mixed with a lot of past it old men. Watching Joe Moody getting dominated by Marcel Renata of all people was quite sad to watch in a way as he was once a great player, but now it's barely a shadow of himself.
Dare I say the Blues should be a bit disappointed not getting a BP? we left a fair few points out there. Obviously conditions didn't help, but I did feel like we should have had about 2 more tries with better option taking.
Still, any win against the Crusaders is a good win no matter the situation so we'll take it.

So is Wilson calling Grace and Christie inexperienced now?
TJ whinging about the players not there, get over it. Every team goes through it.

Tell me about it. If we ever had injuries over the years and attempted to bring it up during our dark days we got laughed out of town for it.

You don't expect me to watch more than his obvious highlights?

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

Tuipulotu excellent. What a game from him. McWhannell also played very well.
Ricciitelli threw well (as did Vikena).
Cotter really has the Blues playing like a top 14 French team haha.
Grace might have to be the most disappointing Crusader. Just hasn't lifted and taked on a senior role.
Hotham and Hannah went well for Crusaders I thought.
Hard to get a read on many Crusaders cos they never got into their game and haven't all season.

What’s missing in this modern age is good old fashioned honesty. Ricatelli and Aumua hang your heads in shame. Just admit you dropped the ball and spare us needless TMO intervention.
Crusaders are hopeless this year. When your recruits are crusaders players from 5 to 10 years ago you’re in trouble. Newell and Hannah the best of the forwards. No stand outs in the backs, that 10 is a world class journeyman.
I will never rate PT as he is hopeless in the line out at international level but he was good around the field. Solid win for the blues.

And yet one of the notable things about whenever he came off the bench was he seemed to steal the first lineout.
