Crusaders; Anyone close?

Question

Do you think that any team in the Super 14 can come close to the Crusaders?

They have the majority of the best rugby players in the world on their team... Anyone close?

Answer 1

Umm they have the class but the chiefs have shown that they can be beaten. They are not unbeatable. Same goes for the sharks. Brumbies have also shown them that they can be beaten.

I was hoping the blues could spoil robbie deans farewell party this year given that the talent is there in their squad but with the outside issues of nucifora probably leaving after this year for a wallabies post...it has somehow distracted the blues. Let alone have played c**p football as of late.

But at the end of the season, I can only see the crusaders lifting the super14 trophy once again!! They just play good sensible rugby. Attack and defend as a team and know each others games very well. I see unity in what they do and I think thats the key to their sucess this year with 8 and 1.

Answer 2

Only the Sharks can come close to the Crusaders, but, to be honest, I think the Crusaders deserve to win this year, they have been great, haven't they?

Answer 3

The chiefs. Well they were better than the Crusaders tonight anyway

Answer 4

18-5 yia thats pretty close cuzzy lol

Answer 5

Well the Chiefs kick there butts, I think the Sharks are the team to watch.

Answer 6

The Sharks are looking good.

Even with the loss of Smit, they are still a great team

Answer 7

They do look classy.

Answer 8

This year?

Sharks and Chiefs can, and last Friday the Chiefs did.

On a good day, the Blues and Hurricanes can, but unless the Blues wake up from their sleepwalking they won't.

As a franchise, over the Super 12 and Super 14 to date, no, nobody really comes close.

Answer 9

mabye the blues if the crusaders slip up !!!
