'It's costing us': David Havili on where the Crusaders are struggling at the moment
By Ben Smith
Crusaders captain David Havili had a simple message for his side after the ventured into unfamiliar territory with an 0-5 start to the Super Rugby Pacific season.
He wants the team to stay positive and keep moving forward after falling 26-6 to the Blues at Eden Park.
On what went wrong in the loss to their strongest rivals, Havili was open about the handling that has plagued the Crusaders as the set-piece fell apart again.
"Just too many knock-ons, couldn't really build any pressure, and a settled Blues team make you pay for it," Havili told Sky Sport NZ.
The Crusaders ended with 40 per cent possession and just 39 per cent territory as the Blues camped deep inside the Crusaders' half for the second stanza.
A disastrous line out won just 47 per cent of their own throws as the Crusaders couldn't get their attack launches going.
In the end the had to make a whopping 202 tackles compared to the 82 made by the Blues, while they missed a staggering 44 tackles as the weight took its toll.
Havili has frank about the fifth straight loss being a reality check for the Crusaders as they fight for their season.
"Yeah for sure, we are having those tough convos, it's making sure we apply that out on the field. We are not doing that at the moment," Havili said.
"The efforts there, it's just those big moments we can't really execute at the moment. It's costing us."
The importance of having the right energy would help the side turn around the results.
"Just stay positive. It's a great group of boys, they really turn up for each other," Havili said.
"Work hard and that's what we've got to do next week.
"It doesn't get any easier for us with a tough Chiefs side coming up.
"We've just got to keep looking forward and keep moving forward."
They host the Chiefs up next as they look to climb off the bottom of the ladder. After the Western Force beat the Reds, the Crusaders will officially be the last side to register a win in 2024.

My partner and I had always been cautious investors, but like many others, we fell victim to an investment scheme that promised high returns in the cryptocurrency space. The company had a sleek website, a compelling pitch, and even endorsements from supposed financial experts. It all looked legitimate—until it wasn’t. One morning, as I checked our crypto wallet, my stomach dropped. The 350 ETH we had transferred was gone. The platform was suddenly inaccessible, support emails bounced back, and the so-called “investment managers” had disappeared. Panic set in. My partner, Lisa, tried to remain calm, but I could see the worry in her eyes. This was our hard-earned savings, and we had been scammed. Determined not to give up, we scoured the internet for help. That’s when we came across Galaxy Ethical Tech—a company specializing in ethical blockchain investigations and asset recovery. Their reputation was impeccable, and they had successfully helped many people retrieve lost funds from fraudulent crypto schemes. With nothing to lose, we reached out. Galaxy Ethical Tech assigned us a dedicated blockchain forensics expert, Daniel, who listened patiently to our story. He assured us that their technology could trace our stolen Ethereum across multiple wallets, even if the scammers had tried to obscure the transactions. Using advanced blockchain analytics and AI-driven tracing, Daniel and his team mapped out the movement of our ETH. The scammers had funneled the funds through multiple wallets and mixing services, but Galaxy Ethical Tech’s algorithms identified patterns in the transactions. Within 72 hours, they pinpointed where the stolen Ethereum had been consolidated. The next step was enforcement. Galaxy Ethical Tech collaborated with cybercrime authorities and blockchain security networks to freeze the identified wallets. They also leveraged their ethical hacking team to monitor real-time movements and prevent further laundering of the funds.Within two weeks, we received an email that made our hearts race. A significant portion of our 350 ETH had been recovered! Galaxy Ethical Tech coordinated with an exchange compliance team to ensure the funds were returned to our wallet. The relief was overwhelming. We had gone from despair to gratitude, all thanks to the ethical, transparent, and highly skilled approach of Galaxy Ethical Tech. Their AI-powered forensics, legal partnerships, and ethical hacking had saved us from a devastating loss.Today, Lisa and I are more cautious than ever in the crypto space, and we actively educate others on avoiding scams. But if there’s one thing we know for sure, it’s this: when technology is used ethically, it can do wonders—even reclaim what was thought to be lost forever.Galaxy Ethical Tech didn’t just recover our Ethereum. They restored our faith in the power of ethical innovation.contact them via Email: galaxyethicaltech@mail.comWhatsapp: +15072712442Telegram: Galaxy_ethical_tech
