A prophetic comment from Rickety Knees… Compare these two backlines:

9. Andy Ellis, 10. Stephen Brett, 11. Adam Whitelock, 12. Ryan Crotty, 13. Tim Bateman, 14. Jared Payne, 15. Leon MacDonald

9. Luke Burgess 10. Daniel Halangahu 11. Lote Tuqiri, 12. Kurtley Beale 13. Timana Tahu 14. Peter Playford 15. Lachie Turner

It seems to me that the Crusaders backline who finished on 41 points is seriously outshone on paper by their Warratah counterparts. That’s the only place they were outshone however and that must surely have been the difference between semi finals footy and the alternative.

The backline in blue was stacked with talent, yet again though they’ve been relegated to the ranks of “could haves”.
An all too familiar tag for the Warratahs.

The Tahs' Achilles heel
