Mr Fish

I'd be surprised if Reihana doesn't join the squad on the EOYT.

Imagine he'll be entrenched at 10 for the Maori in July.

@Darth-Sader can get rattled at times defends high kicks in the middle 3rd of the field it’s still a weakness,
If he has full season in the 10 jersey and displays consistency by all means

Reds are hopeless outside of Brizzy.

2nd year in a row Les Kiss' Reds have offered nothing in the playoffs

@antipodean said in QF Crusaders v Reds:

Perhaps Kiss isn't that great a coach?

Maybe. Or its the same story of the available players we have simply not being capable of high level Rugby due to our shit systems.

Landers92

That’s an old fashioned coat hanger that. Jesus

Like others, i had expected more from the Reds... but early scrum pressure and resulting pens really put them on the back foot...

Lucky Blackadder isn't Finau

Razor is about innovation. EB is consistently innovating on how to not play.

What are the Sky comms on tonight? Jesus Christ.

Dallas will be an AB after that steal.

Reds building momentum for next week....

If the Saders are a chance in this comp, this is how they’ll win it. Tight attack with the odd flourish, defensive dominance and strangling the life out of the opposition. Limited game plan, but effective when it works

Bones

That's a bloody nice try.

Yeah they've seemed very unconvincing this season, but just got the job done. Was always surprising to me seeing them at the top of the table. Not your typical crusaders crusade.

This woman talks too much

Tbh Chiefs, Canes and Blues are all better to watch this year. All three are a chance to win the comp, but if Chiefs don’t take it, it rates as another choke for me.

ACT Crusader

Preston has been the find of the season for me. Has a no nonsense attitude and does the little things a halfback is expected to do.

Isn’t that how they usually win it in these conditions?

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.

What did she say?

Basically, “final 40 minutes of the season, what did you say to the players”

She said "Potentially the final 40 minutes of season"

antipodean

Time to ask that assistant coach about the end of their season again.
