Crusaders v Force Round 5

[waiopehu oldboy]

Wind is defo a factor out there even if it doesn't look like it's Wellington- or Palmy-windy.

O'Connor must love to play the Force, seems to have a blinder every time.

 

[Super Hooper]

It was nice while it lasted...

 

[Wilson]

ooft, crusaders scoring at will now

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Still time for Macca to score a Super Rugby-record sixth try in a match...

How was Crusaders player supporting body weight? No chance…. Shit penalty.

It pains me to see a Rob Penney coached side doing well!

At the risk of causing @Dismal Pillock's ballsack and/ or head to explode (God knows we don't need to see the contents of either), I thought B.Ennor had rather a good game today.

Boy did that game blew out. It was looking like a respectably close game for the first 50mins or so. I wonder how much has to do with the fatigue from the way The Force are attacking the breakdown / defending. They really got themselve caught out on the fringes a couple of times. Bench differences was telling.

I thought that was one of Harris' better performances.

Pretty standard. Away to a Kiwi side with a B team. They did way better than i expected TBH.

Great old ding dong for a while but then the Death Star stormtroopers went full Lord Vader and I gave up watching.

FUUCK watching shitheel Sevu Reece scampering in for tries like he'd been day-drinking and wife-beating all morning.

People regaling you about their "fantasy" choices is almost as boring as people telling you about their dreams.

pretty happy with that. was worried it was going to be 60 nil.
marley Pearse is coming a long way. the crusaders just scored at will on the wings once fatigue set in a bit. first 30 the defence was emence.

god knows how the crusaders get away with taking so many players off the ball. you can't push the one player who is competing for the ball out of the play and then score and say it didn't impact. a couple of the crusaders trys came from force players being taken off the ball. haven't seen those tactics from NZ teams for a while. didn't get pinged once for it.

crusaders to good for a force B team. who would have thought
