Crusaders under the posts after some sustained pressure. Reds defence was barely holding there.

Hunt off, Paia'aua on.

Graham must be tempted to keep Hunt at 10 next week, and maybe even JJ at 15.

Good defence from the Reds there, backrow is working hard too.

Magnay has looked very uncertain to me.

Didn't mean his performance. Looks uncertain but certainly big and strong enough. Not bad for an 18yo.

Hunt prob fave to start 10. While JJ has done well JOC (James O'Connor) should be fave to play 15. Could nearly leave the rest of the backline as is.

Crusaders in again out wide, Todd I think it was. Typical Crusader style, going wide with forwards and backs interchanging and good offloads.

28 - 12 with the kick to come to the Reds.

Kick missed. BTW Reg said that the Crusaders were unchanged at half time.

Faagase on for Talakai and Frisby on for Genia.

Not sure on Crusader changes, but Moody came on quite a bit earlier.

A JJ chip and regather just doesn't come off as JJ's flick pass was too hard to take for Paia'aua.

Hunt looked like his knee was a bit tender. Anyone watching on youtube hear anything?

Stable scrums.

Frisby tried to take a 5cm blind side and got bundled into touch.

Romano off, Barrett (???) on.

Reds steal another Crusader lineout, but put the kick out on the full.

Reds been rather scrappy in the second half.

Something has happened, touchie on.

JJ taken out without the ball, penalty Reds.

Reds defence drove the Sader attack back about 25m earlier, before the Saders went wide and some inside balls and offloads made a break. Reds dragged them down, and got a turnover from a dropped ball.

Slade off?

Wow. CFS missed an intercept - he looked for the tackle and the ball actually hit his arm. Could have scored a 60m try untouched.

CFS looks a bit rusty.
