[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 1099043, member: 55747"] I have, quite extensively, and I don't think so. I really don't. Talking about the saders team that played '22 SR vs Leinster's '22 ERCC? Full team? On neutral ground? Saders. Hell, make it at Croke park. crusaders. I mean, we dont have that much evidence to guess how a SH vs NH club thing would look like, so there is a considerable amount of speculation, but we do have some things we could look at, and that is how South African clubs/franchises have done against both competitions. You think Leinster could bully around Crusader's pack on scrums, lines, mauls and rucks like they do with most NH teams? I most certainly do not. Whitelock, Barrett, Taylor, Matera, Blackadder, Christie. Should i include blackadder? Pre/post injury? Wanna look at the backs: Reece, Jordan, Mounga, Havili , that guy named leicester or something, Goodhue... Goodhue is their weakest link ffs!! Goodhue (he's no slouch, quite the contrary). In a one-off Leinster has a shot, sure. But should they play a best of 10 to eliminate luck from the equation... well i don't see how Leinster can get that. 0 chances of winning imo. Zero. Disclosure: i am reasonably fond of Leinster and i don't give a fvck about the Saders, but i'd like to think i am sincere and intellectually honest individual who just likes to call a spade a spade. Any bias i could come up with, if any, should be against the crusaders and for leinster. [/QUOTE]
