Round 5 Crusdaers v Force

[Jules]

Holding our own really! Worried about how much is left in the tank for another 40 minutes of all that defending though.. 😳

[andrewM]

I have only watched the last 10 minutes and even though the score is not too flash I can't say I'm unhappy with how they are going

[chibi]

Surprised Lance didn't get pinged for an obstruction there. But I'll take it...

Square up?

[WF2006]

iMHO Hoffman has always hated us

Now that he's let them get a big lead, he's evened up the penalty count so we can't use the stats against him

Maybe I'm just bitter!

[jono]

We got rattled well and truly straight up. Defence was all over the shop.
But managed to get themselves back together & turned it into a decent half of rugby.

Objectively the 'saders are beating us. But we're playing some good rugby. Hopefully we don't fall victim to the last 20 mins of the crusaders

Yeah, but take it as an even up. I've had some qeustion marks on the 'saders block runners in midfield too. Seems that they've planned to run it from anywhere.

From the World Rugby law book:

A ruck ends successfully when the ball leaves the ruck, or when the ball is on or over the goal line.

So I'll assume the ball was in play?

[jargan83]

Jermaine Ainsley going off with what looks to be a pretty bad arm injury.

[BLR]

God, cut the mic.

[Jules]

Seriously not even going to TMO!!

[jargan83]

Wasn't grounded

[blueandblack]

Took long enough

[andrewM]

Big scrum boys!

[jargan83]

How many scrum collapses on the 5 metre line before a penalty try?

[AndyS]

16 points behind and they think they'll win by kicking them the ball and defending!!
