I still maintain Hotham is young Perenara.

Unfortunately, yes. He needs to go away and watch some old Aaron Smith clips.

Has his upsides, young Perenara was a great difference maker until he learnt to fly. Powerful pass that's on song occasionally. Dynamic, strong player into everything.

Oh he has potential for sure! Just needs to work on the fundamentals first.

I'd have him over Christie in the Abs squad

Williams has some incredible skill for a prop 20-25 metre left to right pass
There’s some backs around that struggle to do that

Havili and Ennor in the AB midfield you reckon?

Just quietly, Blackadder and Havili have both played very well.

McLeod is available.

Nice pressure Reds

Are you allowed to "tackle" a player on the deck now?

Best passage of play reds have had. They need points here

Just flop on top, no release and get back to your feet

I expect Turunui is fuming.

Game over

Did Jordan release him there or am I blind?

They look slow in attack. Ponderous. Lateral

Bench impact

Will Jordan not releasing ... but we see some rare consistency from the refs lol bring on the Aussie tears

Jeez this is a circus. Horrible rugby.

Newell, Grace, Lio-Willie

JOC doing his best to keep his former team alive

Last bit of play was comedy gold just needed the Benny Hill sound track

Shit Wallaby James O'Connor.

Being in chch (and not man enough to brave the weather haha) it’s farking cold out there, hands will be frozen. In saying that, Crusaders have been good. Reds, not so much…

Has any team, ever, in the history of rugby been 12-0 up just before halftime and turned down the shot to go 15-0 up and elected to kick to the corner?

Absolutely baffling.

Got what it deserved by JOC missing the touch.

Given the way JOC kicked for touch he would have missed the shot at goal

Well, it was at least better than the KFC Catch the Colonel bit they just showed live ...

Fark me, that was embarrassing.

lol did anyone see the halftime entertainment. Poor bugger had to be Usain Bolt to beat the colonel.

We can criticise the Aussie refs but Williams is a terrible ref.

I'm sure Blackadder was in front of Barrett in the lineout before Williams try. That's obstruction.

Rivez going off is a secret ploy to get Richie Mo back next week now that he’s finished his Japan season.

@Bovidae said in QF Crusaders v Reds:

Not to mention Doleman

@Bovidae IMO he's the worst SR ref in NZ. I still recall him denying the Ioane brothers try which at the time I thought was the result of an aneurysm.

@ACT-Crusader

I’ll double down … in a knockout game?

2 scores ahead to 3 is a big diff.

But @KiwiMurph does make a very good point ….

Not the greatest conditions for kicking either. D that one was way out wide.

Fk sake Sky Sport get Taylor Johnson off your commentary team. What a stupid thing to say to the Reds coach. Embarrassing.

Second stupid thing she’s said tonight.
