Crusaders coach Scott Robertson break dances in front of his Super Rugby title winning team.
It was the moment the Jaguares feared and the Crusaders craved - Scott (Razor) Robertson's almost obligatory victory break dance after coaching his team to a third successive Super Rugby title.
Jaguares coach Gonzalo Quesada - a personal friend of Robertson - quipped before the game: "Hopefully he won't have his dance this Saturday."
But as soon as skipper Sam Whitelock collected the trophy after the Crusaders' 16-3 victory, the Crusaders huddled around their mentor and began chanting: "Hoo hey Razor Rey".
That was Robertson's cue to get his toes tapping and torso twisting.

The 44-year-old looked like he had been rehearsing a few new moves as he gyrated in front of the group before sliding onto the turf and beginning his break dancing.

Robertson's repertoire included a couple of snappy press-ups, then he cupped his ear for another "Razor Rey" chant before bouncing back onto his feet.
The former All Blacks loose forward has been entertaining players and fans with his victory dance ever since he joined Canterbury's coaching ranks in 2008.
There have been plenty of opportunities to enjoy his act. Robertson coached Canterbury to three national provincial titles before going on to guide the Crusaders to three Super Rugby crowns.
After finishing his dance, Robertson dusted himself down and began a victory lap of the ground, waving to and shaking hands with supporters, holding up three fingers to mark the Crusaders victories in 2017, 2018 and 2019.
