JB looks like a blindside playing second five, LF looks like a centre playing openside. What a pair

David Havili match fixing....

Thanks Havili!

Thanks Dave. On your bike mate

Why do NZ rugby players kick the ball away? Dumb

In his 150th hahahaha 149 too many

Who has had a worse game tonight? Havili or the TMO?

Wow Havilli. What the fuck

That sums Havilli this evening congratulations on 150 x games but definitely not his best work

Havili you deadshit

Poor Havili, had almost as bad a game as Doleman. I said right at the beginning he looked out of his depth. And he just got worse. I don’t usually complain about the ref but he shouldn’t be at this level.

Congrats to the hosts
Crusaders need to be holding the ball as opposed to kicking it away
Reihana needs to start he’s your 10 that got you a championship last year

Top 3 in the man of the match conversation. For us....

@brodean who would want to be referee ?
the official seems to be the talking point during and after every game

I'm reffing tomorrow.

My main problem is BoK and Doleman. Apart from that I'm good with most refs. I mean Damon Murphy can be a bit average but he's mostly harmless.

The TMO/ref blunders were one for each team. Incompetence all around.

@brodean isn’t this a bi product of the game itself? , so bloody subjective we have the luxury of slow motion replays where as the referee’s are literally metres from the play and have got to make quick decisions
There was a clear hand in a ruck ripped the ball missed by the 2 officials that’s were metres away which I can assume was missed and yet at International level the TMO would have intervened no question

Possibly 2 or 3 other subjective decisions but in the main it’s the players I focus on more and DPK summed it up nicely it was quite a scrappy game

Cahill is a big improvement at lock for Crusaders

Yes, he looks to have bulked up and is now more physical.

Looks to be everything Hannah isn't.

@Bovidae I wonder if they should have started with Gardiner ?,thought he was very effective

@Steven-Harris Gardiner was certainly more effective than Blackadder.

Disappointed there weren't a few more scrums.
