Lovely pass from Cam

Kemara kicks lack any power

Canes winning the air in the 10 minutes

Brilliant Roigard.

Could have sworn that pass was forward again.

canefan

The Crusaders pack started very well. But they may tire with 7 players doing the work of 8...

Judging by the painted line on the ground and complete lack of forward momentum by Roigard, I'd say you're 100% correct.

Score does not reflect the game.

Harkin continues to impress.

Saders unlucky. Think both tries could've been called back for a forward pass in the lead up.

Generally chooses the right option, looks like he has time

@KiwiMurph spot on ,Crusaders have been the architects of their own demise with a very poor kicking game ,Hotham,Kemara & Havilli especially
They dominated the first 15 minutes or so by using runners off Hotham and then decided to start kicking the ball which you can’t do against the Canes and they have been punished big time

Tim

Tuned in late and caught a couple of tries. Morby's was a blinder.

Who was the big Crusaders wing who was out of position for the last try?

MacDonald?

What the fuck is that smoke about? I'm getting fog bowl flashbacks

canefan

Harkin's balance reminded me of CJ just then

antipodean

The Canes accuracy and timing at every ruck is terrible.

Havilli totally ignores the numbers out wide
Having a shocker

jimmyb

LF picking the wrong option

canefan

Important TO from Kirifi

antipodean

Iose might be a bit rocks and diamonds tonight, but has anyone witnessed Lakai doing anything?

Victor Meldrew

Hotham does a Roigard

canefan

That was weak. Saders are right back in it

KiwiMurph

Cahill is a big improvement at lock for Crusaders

I really hope Aumua went off because of an injury. Tuputupu is a hooker who cannot hit his targets.

?????

Second most carries and metres for the game so far. He's been solid.

antipodean

Hotham spots Dearns isn't doing his job and snipes. Well taken try by the second best halfback in NZ

canefan

Terrible pass by JB, luckily the Crusaders knocked it out

Havilli’s poor night continues

canefan

Second shitty LO throw

Victor Meldrew

Jordy does a rare dummy, pass awry

jimmyb

Imagine not being able to lineout throw as a hooker. Any other job and not being able to do the equivalent, you’d be fired

Give them time. Coach Jesus took 2 years....

Surely he should be practising those every day at training?

Should be practicing throwing at home, tbf.

He can't throw but by fuck he can carry!
