@Chris-B ...well that says it all...

Looks like Blues are going to still be tops at the end of toady, the way the saders are playing

@Jailbreak7 That's just a humorous speculation - but, TBH it was a pretty poor selection.

Meh. Crusaders virtually have the Canterbury M10 Cup side out there today. Even if they win ugly then so be it. 4 points is 4 points but I expect them to pull away in the 2nd half.

The Crusaders are awful. I keep expecting more and they underwhelm. Is Scott Robertson still the wonder coach?

Christie and Bower look up for it at least.

Scoreline flattering the Crusaders.

@broughie a few of the coaches that were supposed to be better than Fozzie have not done very well so far....

Those penalties are such a let off for defending teams.

@taniwharugby I am in no way suggesting Fozzie was the better alternative. The fact that he is in charge is a poor choice in my book.

Scott Robertson can't really win if he is copping shit after a three peat. Even if he wins this year, people will be throwing shit at him if he only comes 4th next season.

Crusaders doing a Chiefs

@broughie Its a poor choice in most peoples book....apart from the fisheads who appointed him of courrse

those jet shoes though!

@hydro11 who is in charge of selecting the forwards in Canterbury. They are weak and puny.

did Grace go off injured or subbed?

While I'm cheering for the Crusaders, it's possibly not the best thing for the competition if they could shed the number of stalwarts that they have - Franks, Whitelock, Read, Todd, Crotty - and still win the title.

Floodgates have opened.

FFS Rugby is dead if that is a red card
Absolutely ridiculous

Tackle was a bit late and it was more the forearm than the elbow. Red is too tough for that but still a stupid move.

Only thing dead is that guys brain. You can’t elbow somebody in the head, no matter how gentle it was.

Super dumb.

Lol saders doing a canes

That one wasn't a yellow. It was in the tackle.

@Kirwan Looked like he was off bbalance and tried to free himself to me. But how can you judge how much force it was??

Force is irrelevant. Don’t lash out then there is no issue.

@Kirwan Did he lash out though? Really?? I've seen more force used in a playground ffs

He flung his arm out, hit him in the head. Dumb.

Crusaders just need to keep the ball here.

@Kirwan Dumd yes agreed. More dumb was recruiting him in the first pkace when there are more than ample young guys running around in NZ would give anything to be selected

Who copped the card? I turned off the stream for real life activities

Reece got a yellow and a red for the replacement hooker.

Thought Reece had done enough of a wrap tackle to be the exception to the rule.

No

Razor doing it tough currently

Beauty try

Finally Saders give us something to smile about

Well that was good for the young man, Burke. Hero to zero to hero all in the space of about 3 mins

Flattering final score there

@Jailbreak7 shilo klein and lockie mcnair for starters
