nz's premier poiut fit taking a beating or two

Ex Sport 24

risbane - The Reds beat the Crusaders 35-12 in a pre-season match at Ballymore in Queensland on Friday.

The hosts, who led 28-0 at the break, ran in five tries to two in a one-sided affair against the seven-time Super Rugby champions.

It was the Crusaders’ third successive pre-season defeat following losses to the Highlanders (29-27) and Hurricanes (41-31).

The Reds start their Super Rugby campaign away to the Brumbies in Canberra next Friday (February 13), while the Crusaders host the Rebels in Christchurch earlier on the same day.


I also note in passing that the Warts beat the hapless chiefs.

Will we see Oz sides dominating the kiwi sides again this season one wonders?

Beeno: time to calm down. You may have noticed that most kiwi posters are returning to this site. Your education will resume shortly ...so much to do but we must remain optimistic
Kiwis introduce new educational tool          
Beeno is resilient, some would say hard headed.

Once again you support is appreciated by all Australians. Of course we will see Oz sides dominating the Kiwi sides this year. And both will dominate the Saffa outfits. Feels good to have Super Rugby about to start once again.

Welcome back - why are you missing from ou fantasy competitions?   Look up the thread dealing with those issues.   The Cricket WC is also imminent and there is a competition there as well.

 Claydog  you are showing early season euphoria if you think your sides will dominate SA sides. Wise up oak!!! As for Jw he just cant wait for my classes to begin! How much the kbbs will absorb thiough is questionable but one tries not to be too pessimistic. Precept upon precept stuff, small steps etc.

 Mr. Been,

don't you yet know that pre-season matches count for nothing and are indicative of nothing? 2 years ago, for example, before their disastrous campaign, the landers had an excellent pre-season.

considering that 3 NZ sides, 2 aussies and 1 SA side made the finals and that the lasts 5 in the table were 2 aussies and 3 saffas (the Steroiders btwin them), yours is a quite venture assesment.
I would understand that an aussie fan could do such an assesment, in conclussion they won,..... but a safffa????????? it's soooooooo easy to answer:

Will we see another disastrous campaign of the SA sides and will we see them being dominated by the kiwi and Oz sides again this season, one wonders?
