[QUOTE="fcukernaut, post: 104310"] shouldn't have won it ? maybe. But if the other team was just plain dumb enough to do what the Saders did, they definitely deserve what they got. Allthough gotta hand it to the Sharks for making something out of what was basically a done and dusted game after the full 80 minutes were allready gone with them in there own 22 and not even in posession of the ball, probably the dream end of the competition. This would make an even more magical ending then most of those amarican football movies. I actually jumped up and shouted at the TV, little dance and all... I never do that. :P [/b][/quote] At the level they are at, playing against a side like the Crusaders (should be) they should never win that contest, in that situation.
