Don't want to get into a whole "your sport sucks" thing here but why, oh why don't they use place names in Super 15? Us ignorant Victorians wouldn't have a clue whether the Reds or the Chiefs or the Blue-Arsed-Flies are from Australia, NZ or South Africa. Makes it hard to care. What's the Melbourne based team called? We have one, right?
Um, the Australian teams do, that would be why we have the QLD Reds, ACT Brumbies and Melbourne Rebels. It's no different to not knowing if the Swans, or the Cats are from Sydney, Melbourne or West Wylong...
On the game, was difficult to watch. Very happy Brad Thorne doesn't have the ability to look left!!! Oh and I am not sure I could cope with another box kick from Will Genia!!! The kicking game from QLD was average to say the least, with very little gain from many of the kicks put up. Very happy we won, but I think the win was very much against the run of play as the Crusaiders seemed to have it over us in the ruck, the ability to put together phases and they dominated us in the scrum. Just lucky their line out fell to pieces.
