I went to the game tonight. Everyone seemed really positive about it and to pull a crowd of 10300 is fantastic. Regardless of it being the first game and against the current champions, this has to be recognised.
True, not alot of singing, but what to sing?!
It was a massive effort from the Crusaders players. Their fitness was their downfall in the end. I'm surprised they managed to hang on to 6-6 for so long, they looked exhausted at moments of the first half.
Of course their crowds will fall, but everyone I've spoken to has expressed a desire to go again, so why not give them the chance.
Quote="tad rhino"well done to the crusaders, a gutsy display. i for one hope they do well and get decent crowds.
i thought ali's first try was fine, nothing wrong with it but his second was never a try. what a joke decision.
i like thaler as a ref but thought he was shocking last night.
all in all well done to both sides for playing on that pitch and in that cold. decent viewing.
[unobody has mentioned the cowardly elbow on delaney as he scored the try. it was late and premeditated.
i hope the cowardly tw*t gets a ban but won't hold my breath waiting[/u'"
