Crusaders v Hurricanes
-
That was a good game.
It doesn't feel as if Crusaders are as far ahead as previous years (so far)
@kiwimurph they won a couple last year with other teams not taking points too, just dumb.

Ardie+ even better again, somehow

@damo once the ref calls fulltime can the TMO still intervene at all?

I don't know but the TMO can only intervene within the guidelines. The TMO can't intervene to look at a possible ruck infringement.

Can't blame ardie, he just did as ordered by coaches.
I thought there was a crusader just lying at the back of that ruck who must have come across the line of touch to get there and made no effort to get out of the way.
No replays of the last breakdown shown.

He's still the captain on the field.

You're not the only one. It was obvious to me.

@damo yeah I'd have thought once he blows fulltime, unless it is foul/dirty play, it is over.

Glad I wasn't alone. Not a single replay of it for some reason.
Ardie very unhappy in post match interview. He's normally pretty classy so that means he saw something.

So Bridge played well then?

Take Ardie and Jordie out of this team and they'll struggle (Fatty doesn't play this well every week).
The problem with nailing on Jordie as 12 for the ABs after this match is that he seemed to be floating all over the field, which is not what the ABs need.

@nepia Yes but he wants to be involved. Without he play the cane would have been swamped. In a AB enviroment, at least with a different coach, he would not have to wear as many hats could play his position. Even Ardie could play a more robust 2nd five than Havilli.
