    Very interesting the formation of the backline of the crusaders when they scored their try. Essentailly two pods. Goves them a number of options 1. Pod with the forts two players; 2. Pod with the second two players; 3. Shifting he ball just down the line with the WTO players sitting at the back of pod 1 and 2 just drifting or 4. Ball going to front player in pod 1 who shift it to front payer in pod two who runs straight or 5. Front player running straight. They went for option five which produced a try.

    The try the result of the opposition being totally overwhelmed with regard to how to defend against 5 parable options.

    Great stuff.

    Sadists look formidable. They are going to be impossible to beat at home and hard to beat anywhere else.

    Ngaire puhi @4. It’s about who posed the smallest threat for the bulls. We’ll play the reds than the crusaders.

    Morning all – turning out to be a good game, Reds, somehow, managing to stay in it. Crusaders look like they’re about to peak at just the right time

    Have to say I just love to watch NZ rugby. All their teams are a pleasure to watch really.

    That was a brilliant try by Saders there. So wish we could play that style.

    Dink dit is nou tickets vir die Reds. Sterkte vir die volgende span wat teen die Saders speel.

    Dis nag vir ou Ewan McKenzie. Wallabies are dreaming if thy think McKenzie is going to make any difference to the Wallabies performances against the AB.

    If the final is played in Christchurch NOT one team will beat the Saders that is for sure. The same goes for Loftus, doubt any team will beat the Bulls there if they hold the final.

    Saders will take the Chiefs next week if they are playing them. I do hope it is Cheetahs going through to the semi.
