Where's the crowd?

At home

5 degrees and a southerly

Having been there I can confirm the stadium is an absolute shithole.

Yep, a shithole alright but not exactly their fault.

With the roofed stadium opening up next year, the Crusaders will lose their biggest advantage of freezing their opposition to death.

The Reds are going to lose this not because they're cold, and getting bashed physically, but because they are taking the dumbest options possible

And they keep dropping it cold.

Red’s undoing some good work with handling errors

Brial not having a good time of it in the wintery conditions. That's two handling errors.

It's double trouble when their scrum is getting absolutely destroyed too

And it's because after the initial break, the Crusaders are recovering defensively and they're having a glance.

Nonggor is such a shit scrummager. No idea why he keeps getting selected

The new stadium does have a fog machine installed though….

Our midfield looking pretty good so far.

Fraser McReight is a damn good player. Just watching how active he is on both sides of the ball.
