@Stargazer said in SR Final: Crusaders v Jaguares:
What's really sad about this new is, is that this Final was supposed to be the last Super Rugby and Crusaders game of Crotty's rugby career. Instead, he has to sit in the stands and watch, and his last game was a Semi-Final in which he broke his thumb.
Poetic really
And before you all come piling in here with your panties in a bunch, that was a fucking joke. Missing a GF for anything is harsh, missing with an injury is the worst
Couple of pretty fucking big outs for the Crusaders, unlike a few positions in the side, it seems that they don't have great cover there. Wait, i forgot Romano existed. As you were.
@Chris said in SR Final: Crusaders v Jaguares:
@Jaguares4real I think it will be Goodhue and Ennor in the MF and Jordan on the bench.You could argue extra pace helps.
I concur
Jaguares have some serious speed in their outside backs
Ennor would be a good antidote as well pose a legit threat in attack with his running ability
@mariner4life yeah not so sure about the bench cover or 3rd locking option now not totally convinced on Strange or Dunshea
@Stargazer Yeah I agree hes been more physical Strange seems to have gone backwards a bit.
@Jaguares4real said in SR Final: Crusaders v Jaguares:
Jaguares 28 man squad for final
Also bear in mind another side - Jaguares XV left for SA on the same day to play Currie Cup Rugby
Not bad for a 19 year old!!!
28? Fucking Cheika started this, and look how it's blown out.
World Rugby need to crack down on this. Name a 23 on Monday!

that will affect our Thursday naming too, not sure people could handle the change, although I guess at least if they standardise it, everyone knows when the team will be named.

Meeting their powder dry
Also SA ref in game with SA conference winner in it, the stitch is on!

Geez, that's a lot of bandage for a broken finger.

Nah, Peyper is a homer like Jackson.
@Chris I was implying that WR and SANZAAR have a different view on the refs.
