Crusaders v Reds Prelim 1

[Sandpit Fan]

Well that was quality from the crusaders. Schooled us.

Not sure if the Reds were just off or the saders wouldn't let them get into it.

I'd pick them for the win this year based on that performance, been building into it for a while.

And can we keep the bitching about the ref confined to the Force threads? Payper reffed well, almost always does. Reds lost this one on their own.

Settle down, AS!!

Never!

Commiserations Reds.

Comprehensive by the Saders. Reds found well short of the mark. It's up to the Ponies now!!!

 

[Shiggins]

The crusaders need a history wipe. They could field any side and get the rub

 

[SaderCheif]

So your boys will have Cheetahs or Chiefs next week? Either way it's in NZ. Nice!

Yep. Still hard games though. Can't get too carried away yet.....

Reds thumped.

I wonder if this will change any of Mckenzie's thinking as to who he might be bring from Queensland into the Wallabies.

Game over, Reds flogged.

Good game Crusaders, better in all departments (maybe scrum aside).

When your forwards smash the other side, you set a great platform.

For the Reds, forwards outplayed, midfield defence was a complete mess.

 

[Shiggins]

Genia being a good sportsman. Unlike the New Zealand public.

Red you were an embarrassment. Crusaders classy at home. Building for a title challenge.

 

[Bruwheresmycar]

Don't think anyone would have beaten the saders tonight.

The only thing going against them is that they will be away for the next 2 weeks unless the Cheetahs win.

Good season for the Reds, been a pleasure to watch once again in 2013.

Go Girl!!!!

Yeah there's some seriously good sides still to get over. Should be a cracking finals series!

The Saders have the Bulls if the Cheetahs win, and the Chiefs if the Brumbies win.

Hard to tell, after the Lions break all of the Australian teams were well behind the 8-ball. Certainly none of the Reds forwards out there did themselves any favours.

Reds pretty much played in a similar manner to the previous week and got deservedly beaten.

 

[Shiggins]

"Shit up" you want me to take a dump upside down? I'll pass. I already struggle doing it Japanese style.

Hahaha. My phone never let's me say shit! This is a first.

 

[The Red Baron]

Reds forwards were totally dominated tonight. The crusaders execution was excellent, and they are adept at taking opposition team out of their comfort zone. The constant pressure was telling and the reds just cracked.

I said it before and I will say it again, the crusaders will win the comp this year.

If u r right the brumbies are fucked

Sour grapes. Christchurch isn't all of NZ. You fail at trolling.

Yep I stand corrected. Saders should be cheering for the ponies!

This is appalling. I would hate to be a reds fan. Even my force side would of done better

Hey, you've got to at least make the finals before you earn the right to play shithouse.

When the Force win a championship, feel free to come back and be critical.

This Lions tour has really buggered the Australian teams.

I think the Crusaders will win the whole thing this year. They look absolutely awesome.
