Landers vs Crusaders

Fantastic game of rugby going on here. Landers in front 20-12 at half time after being under the pump early. Saders had 2 tries disallowed. 2nd half should be a belter!!

 Boys arent afraid of giving each other a bit of stick eh ? Great game !

Still 10 minutes left but certainly my favorite game of the season.

 34-26 full time to Landers. Commentators saying that leaves Saders, Chiefs and Landers all on 37 points. Couldn't get much tighter!!

 Will watch it tomorrow - sounds like a good one

 All on 37 points and the Canes on 31 ,the only teams over 30 points as of now yet strangely enough 3 of them are supposedly well down the ladder .If it ends up with 4 Kiwi teams in the top 5 or 6 and 2 dont get a playoff then how fecking ridiculous will that look ?

Landers win With 35% of the possession, making twice as many tackles, 70% of the metres of the Saders, and being twice as likely to kick vs run.
Where have I seen that pattern before. 

 A very selected presentation of the stat Mozart.
The Highlanders also had an attack
5 tries, 480 meters gained, 94 carries, 138 passes, 17 offloads.
So hardly a passive wait for the other team to make mistakes game plan.

 Can't understand why they didn't start Crotty as the defense in the back-line for the Saders was weak.

Great game to watch. Crowd really into it. Seemed like they were singing along with every song that came over the PA.
NZ are worthy standard bearers for the game of rugby, really do it justice.
Sopoaga with a great game. Would be a big call from Hansen to leapfrog him over Cruden and Barrett but seems like the choice to be made. Easily the best goal kicker, has great rapport with Smith, good with ball in hand, creative, plays and looks bigger than the stats would suggest.
