Yeah.
One of the other things about the Crusaders, Brynner, is they seem to play at the right end of the field.
I feel like the Blues are trying to play too much footy and the Crusaders only play when they need to.
Jippen, one of the big things that we saw in this game was Jamie Hanna out wide with mixed success, some incredible offloads, some that went to ground, but quite prominent out there and quite noticeable that he's a guy who's got a relatively high workload, which you need from your locks.
Is he playing himself into that position, especially considering that Barrett and Holland are injured?
Is there a chance we're going to see him in July?
In South Africa, Bernard, you need your locks to be powerful, to be physical.
Who do we have in there that is an absolute bruiser who's got that approach of a Brad Thorne or a Brodie Retallick, just uncompromising?
One of the things around locks, and I plead absolute ignorance on this, is tight head versus loose head lock.
And to what degree is that important?
Obviously, we know it's really important with the props, but to what degree is it important to have that combination or can a player fit either side?
In the scrum, there's not necessarily a technical difference other than the fact that one guy might be the more powerful, more into it.
Yeah, particularly I suppose if injuries come about, they need some experience there.
Although Vati's very experienced now.
you know over the past few seasons is is what now makes them a premium premier international lot yeah brenna that chief side you know when you look at them hitting at the crusaders and acknowledging that the crusaders have won both of their games this year the chief side in my eyes go in his favorites do they go in his favorites in your eyes
What does that mean, top quality ball?
How's that rated?
Yeah, they're the new crusaders when it comes to defending.
I think it was six.
I mean, they've got some injury woes in the pack there, Brenner, and it hasn't seemed to matter too much.
