I don't expect my team to win all the games, but we did our best to lose this one. |
I think if they were any better, if they had held onto the ball a couple of times, we could have been in strife. Our defense was brilliant. |
I thought we had parity in a lot of areas of the game but it's the Crusaders' ability to absorb pressure and react - three of their four tries were from turnovers - that's really disheartening when you are in control of the ball. |
We did out best to lose that one. The game was there for the taking and we blew it. |
We just kept making mistakes, we were a shade off our game and put ourselves under pressure with dropped passes. We looked a bit anxious and the quality of the Crusaders players absorbed that. |
