What if Mo'unga goes down with a serious injury in the first 20 minutes?

David Havili will take over?

Did the bored just crash?

i posted a reply and the site hung up...

uh... yes. Havili into 10, Goodhue to 12 and Ennor in at 13. Havili can play at 10 but he doesn't excel there. It's not ideal.

I reckon Razor has looked at how much more organised and effective the Reds were across the middle of the park last weekend and he'll be looking to shutdown their shutdown.

I'd have included Bourke myself, at the expense of an outside back. I'm actually not Razor though.

The site is still crashing...

Shame you aren't Razor though.. as would be interesting to hear his thoughts...

Hasn't been a stellar season for the Saders, but hopefully they get the win tonight.

[Kiwias]

A typical slowish start from the lads tonight

[Kiwias]

The Big Red Forward Machine is starting to crank it up. Reds scrum is in for a long hard night

Ironic that somehow he escaped being suspended and the Reds see that as their best chance!

[Kiwias]

Lineout is making up for the scrum by being totally shite

[Guy Smiley]

Lineouts are a forwards thing though, yeah.

[Gumboot]

Leicester's defence - dear oh dear.

[Kiwias]

Interesting that the TMO did not take a closer look at that finish

I specifically mentioned the scrum. Perhaps you missed that.

[Torquemada 1420]

Interesting that the TMO did not take a closer look at that finish

Probably did and correctly decided it was fine.

[Torquemada 1420]

Taylor is having a shocker so far. As is Bower who appears to have hands like tits.

[Kiwias]

Probably fine but TMOs have looked at groundings similar to that

[Guy Smiley]

Leicester's defence - dear oh dear.

Honest question…. do you just troll Canterbury supporters or are you actually a single focus misery guts?

It was fine. My point was the TMO may have looked at it and correctly decided no intervention needed. I'm all in favour of that rather than waiting for the ref to call review and waste time.

[Guy Smiley]

Marshall raving about a tackle that featured no arms

[Gumboot]

Leicester's defence - dear oh dear.

I don't troll, just call it as I see it. Not bothered if you don't like it, but that's my honest answer.

Honest question, what did you think about his effort in that Reds try?

My steam froze and I missed part of the play.

I asked because every week without fail you single Fainga’anuku out. I usually just ignore it but… it’s a pattern.

I love Leicester on attack...

Bower playing better after early dropsies...

Yes it is, because he's very much in the selection frame for higher honors and gets hyped a lot, and I don't think he deserves to be on account of his ropey defence.

[Torquemada 1420]

Awful decision by Havili to kick there but may have worked out by luck.

True

[Gumboot]

Scrums aside, Bower's not having a great game so far.

[Torquemada 1420]

Sadists error count in key areas is terrible today. Bad fwd pass by Mounga now followed by shambles from lineout maul.

I’d hook him

[OomStruisbaai]

Crusaders should take the 3 points

Sorry forgot about the Reds powder puff scrumming.

[Torquemada 1420]

Lack of composure by Mcdermott there. So keen to get ball in and out of scrum because pressure they are under, he blew a chance maybe to get a free kick for Saders pushing early.

[Kiwias]

Richie wants more

When you posted the Saders had one try and 3 penalty shots in their score.

[Kiwias]

I should not be surprised any more but Blackadder is having another cracker.

[OomStruisbaai]

No way the Reds can win from here.

[OomStruisbaai]

WTF happen?

[Grandpa]

He is! Hopefully not badly injured... a/c joint?
