Saders starting to get over the gain line a lot easier

Kirwan

Yes, love the quick tap!

Donsteppa

Jaguares saved that one well.

looked like he was on a crusader leg

How long has Razor been saving that one for I wonder. Beautiful deception. Jaguares equal to it though.
Been a great final so far.

Strange decision to go for three .

No Quarter

I was about to say penalty try coming up but they're kicking the goal!

Donsteppa

The days of the “strong Argentinian scrum” have gone the way of dial-up internet.

kiwiinmelb

A few concerns for the jags in that last passage before the held up try , for the first time crusaders were going straight through them

taniwharugby

@akan004 strange in the context of the last 5, but right call for the game

ACT Crusader

Don’t mind the penalty kick.

Donsteppa

Hags look like they’re losing patience with ball in hand.

Their ten is having a bad game. He's a good player too.

taniwharugby

second one of those off-loads of Materas that looks to have gone forward out of hand

Not the looker that last week's game was, but effective Grand finals Rugby by the Crusaders so far. No one will give a rat's gentials about the performance if Razor is breakdancing ten minutes after the final whistle.

Dam wall about to break

Cyclops

Jaguares maybe tiring here. Crusaders sensing they're ahead andjjust looking to rack up points and get back on attack.

Donsteppa

16 - 3 to Crusaders after 60 minutes.

No Quarter

Saders are grinding them into the ground.

sparky

End of Owen Franks' Super Rugby career. One of the greats.

Donsteppa

Jags will have to chance their arm now, and will likely be punished. Jags looked good early, but the Crusaders have slowly but surely gone through the gears on them.

Watching Read make a tackle, hit the ground, roll once, then jump back up again to make another tackle is really making me feel much better as an AB fan.

sparky

Loving the patience of this Crusaders performance tonight.

taniwharugby

he was on his knee then bounced but never released the ball

@gt12 Read has been everywhere in this game..Todd has been next level in terms of workrate ..

gt12

Saders lucky there, Taufua a miiiiile offfside

No Quarter

Should have been a penalty for holding on. Marshall is talking shit.

Cyclops

Love Drummond's heart there. Diving at the ball with a winger charging forward looking to toe it on.

Donsteppa

If Keith Quinn was still in commentary it’d be ”the Jaguares must score next to get back inside the six [seven] point gap!

Bones

Shut up Marshall! The replay showed the hags player on the ground clearly not releasing...

ACT Crusader

Marshall, bro, learn the rules. So Matt wins the turnover yet the Jags player keeps his hands on the ball and is on the ground.

That is a penalty.

Donsteppa

Saders saved by about a coat of paint there 🙂

And it was a big leg swing at that.

Cyclops

Jaguares have got their second wind now. Crucial phase for the Crusaders to hang on through that period.

3 clear cut chances the Jaguaries have had ..number expected 0

Cyclops

Ennor off. He's looked good with ball in hand but I don't think he's look ready to be a starting centre.
