Another Reds penalty, Yellow Card to Saders No 8, Sanders!
Professional synical foul if I ever saw one… typical of the Saders mentality of play.
This time the Reds want to scrum against 7 men… with a big blind side begging.
Little knock..

Morning GBS,
They did manager to beat them 18-13 in the 2011 final in Brisbane though!

The Reds have been very good and abrasive in the 1st half…
Little errors preventing them from far more points in the half.
Basic thing with modern rugby is… the most ACCURATE team will win… and go on to win the overall tournament.
This is true in Super Rugby, Test Rugby, PRO14, and all the European Rugby…
Cut the errors, do the basics, take the correct options, play the persentages well.
Just look at the Bulls for instance… terrible execution, lots of errors, shocking inaccuracy, terrible dicipline… and as a result they crawl here at the botom of the Super Rugby Log!
You do not have to have the biggest, baddest game breakers… you WILL win if your side is accurate in what they do… simple as that!
2nd Half ON!

Yeah, I should have said “Playing in New Zealand” between the 2 sides…
High tackle by JP Smith… Saders penalty.
They kick to the corner.
Try George Bridge, Saders!
Reds missing tackles there and Bridge should never have gotten away there… see what I mean about inaccuracy costing you?
Crusaders 17 / 10 Reds
Try Reds, Taniela Tupou!
Crusaders 17 / 15 Reds
Reds kicking at posts very shabby today.
Error by Bridge, Reds 5m out again…
Reds knock… and the Saders counter from their own line.
Then Mo’unga clears to the safety of touch.
Try Saders, Leicester Faingaanuku!
Crusaders 24 / 15 Reds
Reds penalty, on the Saders 10m line… kicked to touch
Not a good touchfinder… but out at least.
Saders steal the lineout ball.
Saders penalty, Cody Taylor over the ball… on about their 22.
Sione Havili off to a Head Assessment for the Saders.
Reds have not won in New Zealand since 2013…
Reds offside at the breakdown… Saders penalty, 1m outside their own 22.
Hegarty on for the Reds… plus a prop in place of JP Smith.
Reds penalty, 5m inside their own half.
Saders culpably offside… Mo’unga.
Deeeep in the Saders 22, Reds opt to scrum.
