Yes, the Crusaders take a long time compared to the Metro. So my research tells me a Day Rover works out better for all zones and usually two zones. Particularly as the Return Transfare would be purchased from a different operator (Metro rather than bus).
I wonder if anyone has ever done the full 42A route from the Airport to North Shields?!
