[QUOTE="The TRUTH, post: 92916"] Lets take a look then shall we.... (Remember the first 7 weeks they'll be without 7 of their starting 15) week 1 v Blues - who will also be without a few key players week 2 v Reds at home - had this been an away match they would have almost certainly lost - at home winnable week 3 v Cats - the worst side in the comp week 4 v Cheetas - the side that gave us(force) our only win last year week 5 v Sharks - ok, not such an easy game but id rather be playing them than the Bulls @ loftus week 6 BYE - handy week 7 v Bulls @ home - one of the worst traveling sides So even without a number of key players, the first 7 rounds are all very winnable(except for maybe the Sharks game).Then they get their star players back(rested) just in time to face the top sides. Would you have rather played the Waratahs,Brumbies,Hurricanes,Force,Reds(away),Bulls(away),Cheifs or the Highlanders instead?...... i think not..... without Carter,McCaw,Mauger,MacDonald,Jack,Thorne and Somerville i wouldn't have given them much chance to win any of those games. It's a great draw for the Crusaders [/QUOTE]
