[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 868377, member: 20605"] A superb win by the Crusaders, in fact probably their greatest final win ever in the most difficult of circumstances, but hell, those Lions just would NOT go away! A truly courageous performance in defeat. Ryan Crotty thoroughly deserved MOTM by some distance. Seven runs, 63 metres, a clean break, two defenders beaten and two breakdown turnovers won and 10 tackles made. Once again, he has shown why he is easily the best choice for 2nd 5/8 in the Black jersey; calm under pressure, deceptive runner, hardly ever makes a mistake and runs the back line superbly. A word too for Scott Robertson. What a breath of fresh air he has been as coach; a Super Rugby ***le at the first attempt, the first person to win a Super Rugby ***le both as a player and a coach. He has also won National Provincial Championship as a player and a coach, and he coached the NZ U20 team to a world championship win in 2015. How long before he gets drafted into the All Black setup?
