| Jules | Want a beer? |
| Wobbly | All right... Thanks. |
| Wobbly | Hey.... Isn't this the Monteiths I brought? |
| Jules | Yep. |
| Wobbly | Bastard. |
| Spidey | *farts* |
| Jules | The Pussies could be tough. That's pretty much the 'boks loosies in their starting lineup. |
| Wobbly | True. But you're still a bastard. |
| Jules | Thanks... Awww cripes Spidey! |
| Jules | Game's starting. Open up those chips. |
| Spidey | *crunch* |
| Erasmus charges down a Mehrtens kick, collects the bounce and hands the ball to Mulder who scores an easy try | |
| Wobbly | Shit. |
| Mehrtens slots a couple of penalties. | |
| Jules | Ahhh... As long as we stay in touch with a few penalties and stay in touch, we can weather the storm and come back. |
| Wobbly | Yeah... But Mehrts is looking a bit rattled.... |
| Jules | He'll get over it. |
| Wobbly | Gidday SG... You're a bit late. |
| SG | Sorry lads. Got pulled over for speeding on the mountainbike. |
| Spidey | *burp* |
| Erasmus hoofs the ball through the Crusaders backline, charges after it, dives on it and pops it to Vos who passes superbly to Esterhuizen. Try time for the Pussies... | |
| Wobbly | SHIT! |
| SG | Useless!! Bloody hopeless. They're playing like crap. |
| Jules | Yup. But we're still in touch. 21-12 isn't too bad for a half time score. We can come back from this |
| Wobbly | Crap we can... *mutter mutter* But then, they did it last year against the Pussies. |
| Spidey has a leak and the second half starts | |
| Jules | Well, I think that if we score first we can win this. |
| Reams scores in the corner for the Cats | |
| Jules | Bugger. |
| The Cats add six more through penalties to Koen | |
| Jules | Double bugger |
| Wobbly | No thanks Jules... |
| Wobbly | Hopeless. They're playing like a High School team. It's utter crap! Send them all off!! Bollocks! |
| SG | Crap crap crap! |
| The Crusaders score a try! | |
| Spidey | Woohoo! |
| Jules | Oooh oooh ooooh! *punches SG* |
| SG | Ouch... |
| Hennie le Roux is a naughty boy and is sent to do his penance in the sin bin. | |
| Jules | What a bugger *smiles* |
| SG | Damn shame... *grins back* |
| Spidey | *farts joyously* |
| The Crusaders storm back to within 3 points in the space of 5 minutes thanks to a try to So'oalo (off a pass that went only a couple of metres forward) and a piece of sublime backplay which led to a try to Leon McDonald. | |
| Wobbly | Unbelievable..! What a team! |
| Jules | No other team could come back like this! Go the Crusaders! |
| SG | Wooooohooo!! What awesome form! Amazing tries. Another one and we've got it in the bag. |
| Jules | What a night! And Vidiri scored four times for my fantasy team! |
| Wobbly | Bastard. |
| The Cats kick two more penalties... And Delport scores a try after some scrappy backplay by the once mighty Crusaders | |
| SG | They're useless |
| Wobbly | Hopeless. |
| Jules | Terrible. What a pathetic effort. |
| Spidey | yep. |
| Wobbly | Shut up Spidey. You've been bloody yabbering all bloody night. |
| Delport scores again. | |
| SG | Aaaaaaaaaaaaarrrgh! 50 points!! |
| Wobbly | I could go off watching sport actually... |
| SG | Same here. |
| Jules | Happy Birthday Spides..... |
| OldFartSpidey | Gee thanks Jules. |
| The
boys slump sadly off to their respective beds at their respective houses... FINAL SCORE: Crusaders 31 - 54 Cats |

Crusaders vs Cats: A Live Commentary!
(Albeit a few days late...)

Great to see such balanced commentary and loyal undying support from my fellow RugbyHeads yet again. Between you and me though, I think Spidey should lay off the spicy food...  |  |
