Chris B.

That's a fair way from the best team we can field.

Got a bit of a 2024 vibe about it! šŸ™‚

Crusaders to lose in Sydney then?

Chris B.

@Yeetyaah I won't be at all surprised.

Chris B.

@Chris TAB has the Crusaders as hot favourites - paying $1.45 when I looked earlier today.

I might put an insurance bet on the Tahs! šŸ™‚

Crusaders have lost 3/4 of their last away games to Tahs, i reckon if they're not thorough in their prep, don't turn up with the right mentality there could be another upset on the cards here...

Every chance of a loss I reckon

The Tahs have lost Joseph, otherwise I’d bank on a Tahs win.

Taylor,Barrett,Newell,Blackadder and Jordan out makes it tough.The players getting a start because of those players being out need to really stand up.

Chris B.

@Chris Waratahs at home still paying $2.60 on the TAB.

The pundits apparently really rate Joseph Sua'ali'i!

Or maybe NTA has made a massive insurance bet on the Crusaders! šŸ™‚

In my mind, the Waratahs are favourites.

@Chris-B Crusaders by probably 15 or more.,

Chris B.

@george33 I certainly hope you're right!

But, I'm far from convinced!

See your GP for brain worms.

Looked far too easy with Lancaster rushing up to take no one and leave a massive hole.

Tahs trying to lose this game in the first 10 mins.
