Blues penalty, 8m from their own line… a relieving one.
Saders now much stronger and running everything hard at the Blues.
@ grootblousmile: Combined logs looking a bit better now that NZ sides are facing each other more regularly.
Saders come within 6m again…
Saders penalty, easy one…
Blues 18 / 23 Crusaders
Bit of controversy, but a bad clean out after the whistle by a Blues player, which according to the Gardner trumps all previous infringements.
Blues 18 / 26 Crusaders
8 Point lead now with 5 minutes remaining. ‘Saders restoring some sanity to Superbru. Looks like the Blues are losing their composure a bit.
Scrappy play here now.
West trying a long range penalty which he misses. Had the distance. Looks like the Blues will lose this one.
Silky skills by the Blues, and Lee particularly. This is what I love about rugby.
Blues attacking for all they are worth… but the deficit is 8 points, so they cannot win the game.
Time is up on the clock already.
Final Score: Blues (15) 21 / 26 (10) Crusaders
Close game. Well done Crusaders. Cheers all. Time do go.
