Well I thought for a while that we might go top of the table as I watched the Crusaders really struggle against the Reds for a long while into the second half of their game last night. However, the class of the Crusaders came through eventually (unfortunately) and they won comfortably in the end 47-21. Earlier in the weekend, though, the Bulls had failed to win at home against the Brumbies which means the Crusaders and the Hurricanes are alone on 10 points at the top of the table.

Let’s hope the Hurricanes can make it three from three next weekend in the Cake Tin.
