Gardiner barely slowed him down

I know which one I want as AB blindside...

@Bones said in Crusaders vs Hurricanes:

Again, I won't blame Nisbo if he confuses Lakai with Rova.

Hope not, Lakai is in Wellington.

Another shocking kick. A few howlers in this stadium so far.

Was thinking the same thing....

lol Timu is not Super standard.

Rova makes woeful decisions

Shields winding the clock back

Shields is the 6 the ABs need, but is he too old?

Suspect turnover from Fihaki

Lol clear knee on the ground.

Fern fav Havili carving it up .. nice set up

Who’s playing 8 for Canes? Very ordinary defence.

Yeah, but Nisbo

@His-Bobness poliko from Taranaki could be on debut

Oh man, Newell done now? Let's hope Lomax gets back to form

@Steven-Harris Debut and Swansong combined?

He’s scrumming well.

At least it wasnt non-contact. Hopefully just a twist for Newell

I wouldn't be uncomfortable with Kemara getting the gig in the midweek games in SA.

Hotham having a great game so far!

Dodgy as fuck try

As expected, the midfield starting their first game together + debut winger having a rough time making their reads.

Crusaders taking advantage of the 16th man yet again

Filimone has been dreadful. Not sure he's super rugby level. Nice story though.

Flanders with a horrendous miss

Crusaders clinic at the moment.....

Awesome pass from JM to CLW

So Sullivan sitting on the bench in his 50th....

He's a handy 13 Laidlaw....

Harkin looking every bit the test footballer out there.

That was an example right there. Filimone just needed to stay on his man on the wing and he jammed in on the centre. Horrific.

He seems to love Rova. Not sure why

Tuputupu constantly getting caught in no man's land (when he's not hands on knees wheezing)

Timu is 13.....

@Bones Bench hooker could be an achilles heel for this team.

So are Blues going to lose to Crusaders next week at Eden Park or under the roof?

Laidlaw should get all of Numia, Lomax, Roigard, Harkin and Moorby off at halftime.

I'm on a playing ready to take off. Can't see

So much better than Higgins according to the Scotsman

agreed, literally nothing to be gained by keeping them on.
