Well done to the Crusaders, deserved champions… again!
Well done to the Emirates Lions too, they gave it their absolute best!
So, Super Rugby 2018 is a thing of the past…
Coming up in 2 weeks, the Currie Cup and The Rugby Championship!
Well done Crusaders. Better team on the night. But Lions can hold their heads up high.

@ Lion4ever:
So true Gentlemen, Lions can hold their heads very high indeed.
Fought hard, right to the bitter end.
Easily held the advantage in possession and territory.
Crusaders worthy champions as well. Canes and Lions probably the next two best Teams in the Competition and Crusaders comprehensively defeated both.
Well,…………………….. for the rest of us ……………………………there is always next year.
