Crusaders v Blues

[gt12]

Those last minutes of defense suggest the blues are properly title contenders.

Brilliant game.

[Bones]

Unlucky saders, might have been a different result without Barrett brain spasms.

Congrats blues! Can't help but think Beauds should have gone off and Perofeta stayed on...

[Machpants]

Both Barrett's tried the best to help their team lose, Scott'won'

[Toddy]

What a win. Best game of Super rugby since fucken ages.

[chimoaus]

Fucken stocked to see such a great game of rugby, well played all.

[Yeetyaah]

What a fucking game.

[Dice]

Honestly, Crusaders did a great job to get back into that one. I was a bit worried.

Here Dalton you dropped this -

Barrett should have put that game away. Two big penalty misses from Perofeta, and team bombed two tries with a man advantage.

[ACT Crusader]

@toddy would’ve been boring if we had won. Saders doing their part to help NZ and Super rugby

[Victor Meldrew]

Some dodgy refereeing but a great game. Blus jept theor composure n the last 5 minutes.

Papilii was awesome as was Ofa, Jordan & Mounga.

[Tim]

Blues loose forwards were huge. Tu'ungufasi huge.

Jordan is class.

[Dice]

Dalton made so many big plays inside the 22. One of the best individual performances of the season.

@gt12 said in Crusaders v Blues:

Ioane pace to cover on defense is absolutely incredible. I count four times he shouldn’t have made ground. That tackle was brilliant.

Yeah, he's awesome in cover, it's just a pity his pace isn't used so well in attack by the ABs.

[Steven Harris]

@tim Sotutu was like a man possessed

[Tim]

@steven-harris Yeah, best game from him for a couple of seasons.

[chimoaus]

We possibly have the best loose forward depth we have seen in some time. I just wish our locking depth was the same.

[Tim]

Hope Hodgman is OK.

He's been massive this year.
