@ Ashley:
The pink is very firmly in his closet! Only comes out when he’s with his “special friends”
114@ The_Young_Turk:
I know and also the Tahs game we should have won. Saying that we should have beaten the Stormers too. Lost it at the death with a penalty and most of all the bad discipline cost us there.
115@ grootblousmile Agree totally. I really don’t like this new format at all. It is flawed have said it many times. Some teams play easier Oz and Kiwi sides while others play the top sides. Then the reffing system is a bloody joke. Like we playing a kiwi side at home and they brought their ref along??? Not that it is like that way, feels kinda like that. Need to get back to the old format that worked well. Every team needs to play each other once and none of this home and way against the teams in your conference. Only need to play each other once like it used to be.
Also the 5th and 6th team should never have a chance to play for a place in the final. Should only be the last four standing like it used to be. Let them play in a semi and then a final with the last two. Ag, really don’t like this format at all. Has messed up the S15 really.
Okay now really need to dash. Cath up later.
116@ Puma:I shall wear my sons Sharks jersey with pride!!!

Crusaders 35 / 14 Hurricanes
Very good Saders counter-ruck

Penalty Saders, Canes No 5 off his feet
21 Minutes to go, the margin also 21
Bit of pushing and shoving….. Saders penalty, they opt to scrum
Saders blow a try there, Read choosing to go himself, but still 1 m out
Try Israel Dagg again
Crusaders 42 / 14 Hurricanes
Where’s everybody… am I talking to myself again… eishhhh
Looks like Kickers will get the bonus for being closest to the score but no one will be within 5. Congrats Kickkers, you creep a bit further up the log
