The sound of referee Brendon Pickerill's whistle was still ringing in the ears of the Crusaders at the team's Rugby Park headquarters today.
It is no surprise their lack of discipline against the Hurricanes last weekend has been a focal point as they prepare to host the Chiefs in Christchurch.
Conceding 15 penalties, most of them in the first half, didn't stop the red and blacks registering a 39-25 bonus point win.
Not good enough is the message from the Crusaders coaching staff as they prepare to put their 34-match unbeaten run at home on the line.
Referees blew 58 penalties the opening weekend, followed by 49 across the two games the past weekend.
The Chiefs will face the Crusaders at 3.35pm Sunday while the Blues will take on the Highlanders at 7.05pm Saturday.
