So it just, after such a hot start, you sort of thought, oh, this is going to be a blowout.
But then the whole tide just started turning at set piece and then around that Maul D, you know, leading to just back-to-back penalties.

I'm looking forward to the battle of, I'm assuming Hotham will start, Jake Gordon.
I know we're going to the Waratahs game, but God, he's good.
I just love, I love everything about that guy.
He's just such a good player in attack and defense.
Yeah.

And it's just, it's invaluable.
You've got to have some scars to get that sort of leadership and experience.
And unfortunately that Crusaders group was getting, got their scars in a hard way.
But man, they need some of those senior players back if they are to defend this title.
