@Yeetyaah I won't be at all surprised.

Same. This is not a vintage Saders team.

Yeah in the same boat as you guy's,I have an uneasy feeling about this game.

@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!

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 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!

In my mind, the Waratahs are favourites.

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

@george33 I certainly hope you're right!

But, I'm far from convinced!

See your GP for brain worms.

that was lovely to watch

@Mattasaurus said in Waratahs v Crusaders:

that was lovely to watch

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.

I do enjoy watching the Tahs getting beaten

WTF at state of the pitch they're playing on. Has it been wet or something in Sydney all week?

@1kiwi a fair bit of rain this week in Sydney. But not enough to justify a professional pitch looking that poorly.

Its probably over utilised.

MAAAAAUUUUUUUULLLL well worked

Great try there.

96-19….

Haha imagine that.

Chiefs won’t be happy watching this.

Don't know what the crowd were booing for there was no clear evidence that the ball was grounded on or over the line.

Looked like Tahs front row got done to me

Scrum had wheeled big time.

Ball at the back so ref telling them to play it. Like they did at the start of the season but seemed to go away from it a bit. Good to see he’s let it play

The quality of officiating in this 25mins is miles from the previous match

The Tahs midfield is pants. Anything they do on attack completely breaks down with those two.

Good kick by Johnny Mac to find the ground in the 22.

And a chase too

Johnny Mac ghosting on the outside. Nice.

great lines and weak tackles = tries

Johnny is turning back the clock. Looks very good at 15.

Great right to left pass from Reihana

Yay, we have a goal kicker tonight.

Walton is usually quite handy imo. Not going their way tonight

Decent enough defence, but the Tahs attack is very narrow, making it easier for our forwards.

So you can just run into kick chasers after they’ve kicked it

Imagine the noise if it was the saders did the late hit

Biffo

Shalfoon showing his true grub colours and walking away when a bigger man than him gets involved. lol

Well reffed
