It's like a slow death with a glimmer of hope. It's time to put the Saders to sleep.

I still reckon they have a game or two left in them. If I bet, I'd take them as outsiders...

I don’t have much faith,to many repeat games with no sign of fixing the fundamental mistakes that are losing them games for me.

I was wondering if Fergus Burke makes a difference or not either. He's barely played as a starting 10 at this level but is a proper 10 and the best they have.
Also, what has happened to Zach Gallagher?

Yeah better than the other 10's but a long way from being a reliable starter. His reputation in the media seems to have grown as others fumbled
If the Crusaders win that 10/12/13 combo has to fire
The Brumbies defence has been off all year. The second worst team in terms of missed tackles. Tua the worst offender is only behind Chase Tiatia. However they do scramble well and their points conceded is ok. Teams with good support play have hurt the Brumbies this year

@Duluth Similar to here then, where the less you play, the higher you get rated.
Another area where these two teams were 1 and 2 in for many years was the set piece. Both teams in the past would hammer opposition at maul and scrum time, this year, not so much.

@Chris I Am and Tamiti ? What's happened there ,has he been up North for the week
To bring Tamaiti Williams back and straight into the starting line up in a NZ derby when he hasn’t played any rugby since week 1 is terrible management in itself. Hes then pulled before half time, It makes no sense and sets Williams up to fail. You could tell he was well off it in regards to fitness.
I suppose that’s a theme from Penney this season though, he started Halfpenny after being out all season, has a shocker then pulls him early and he’s not in the matchday 23 the following week
very strange to see at super rugby level.Because Halfpenny had a calf injury he injured at the end of that game, pretty hard to select him the next week running on one leg

He was pulled around the 45minute mark. Didn’t know he got a calf injury but that in itself just proves my point. Haven’t played any rugby at all all season then thrown into the starting line up and gets injured again. Shock.

Fergus Burke, another one who hasn’t played any rugby at all all season and thrown straight into the starting line up. Wasn’t eased back through club footy or anything, we’ve seen how this goes…. Happy to be proven wrong but again, it’s turned into a theme.
Zach plays at my club here in Christchurch, the chat was he was meant to play club rugby on the weekend just been but that never ended up happening. Haven’t heard anything since.

Blame James Marshall for that out of his depth as a coach,
Halfpenny still has that calf injury. -

Unfortunately you’re refusing to take on board what I’m saying about the head coach having the final say and has the power to override his assistants. Really unsure of your argument/angle here so like I said, leaving it at that. Pointless back and forward now repeating myself. good luck

FFS have you not read any of my posts saying Penny has to go time and time again but he is not the only fluffybunny that needs to go you got that ?
Haha Reow. I’m just asking a question as to how it falls on Marshall like you said? Let’s just leave it at that ae
Marshall is the back coach he has a say in who the backline is,he is just responsible as Penny, Marshall is useless.I thought you would understand a back coach has a big input into what the backline is you run out week to week.
But maybe not ae.Yeah mate, I get everything you’re saying. I’m not saying Marshall is up to it. Unfortunately you’re refusing to take on board what I’m saying about the head coach having the final say and has the power to override his assistants. Really unsure of your argument/angle here so like I said, leaving it at that. Pointless back and forward now repeating myself. good luck

@Chris I Am and Tamiti ? What's happened there ,has he been up North for the week
To bring Tamaiti Williams back and straight into the starting line up in a NZ derby when he hasn’t played any rugby since week 1 is terrible management in itself. Hes then pulled before half time, It makes no sense and sets Williams up to fail. You could tell he was well off it in regards to fitness.
I suppose that’s a theme from Penney this season though, he started Halfpenny after being out all season, has a shocker then pulls him early and he’s not in the matchday 23 the following week
very strange to see at super rugby level.Because Halfpenny had a calf injury he injured at the end of that game, pretty hard to select him the next week running on one leg
He was pulled around the 45minute mark. Didn’t know he got a calf injury but that in itself just proves my point. Haven’t played any rugby at all all season then thrown into the starting line up and gets injured again. Shock.
Blame James Marshall for that out of his depth as a coach,
Halfpenny still has that calf injury.Blame the backs coach for team selections and not having players fit to play and select them to play when they’ve been out for the season? That’s a new one haha.
End of the day, the head coach makes these calls and has the power to override Marshalls wants. It lands on Penny. Unsure how you can’t acknowledge that?
