    Codie Taylor ruled out for this week. Moananu starts and Matt Moulds comes on to the bench

    That's big. Crusaders pack is a different animal with Codie for some reason.

    Springer is only slightly better than Lowe.

    Real good argument from you.

    Bingo, you got there! If as you say, tries and percentages are all that matters, a guy that had run in 8 tries from 18 games with all those opportunities is a slight upgrade on Lowe for the highlanders.

    Good to know the metric of what makes a super awesome player though. Caleb Ralph >>> Jane, etc.

    You’re missing the point. Everyone knows Springer is a much better player just by watching him. He’s already showed at the raw age of 22 that he’s a far superior athlete to Lowe. What the stats show is how poor Lowe has been over a long period of time, yet Springer is pretty much still a kid and he already has a far better try scoring record.

    The fact you are trying to make a case for the very mediocre Jonah Lowe is laughable.

    Anyway, I’m wasting my breath on this. Just nonsense from you.

    All these "facts" that you make up when it's just poor comprehension and fantasy really don't help. Go back and start again. For the highlanders, Springer would be a slight upgrade on Lowe - a half decent fill in as opposed to a very mediocre full in, but not going to oust anyone from the starting side. No one is going to give two shits if Springer doesn't sign with the highlanders.

    Nonsense is blahing on about trying scoring and using the word "fact" to state something that is anything but a fact.

    Well Penney isn't going to come out in press and say that Springer isn't the best under a high ball. He's not, I haven't taken much notice of what Fihaki is like, but if he is think you can almost understand decision.

    Once, just once, I'd like you to question a selection decision Dan.

    Lowe was a very good handy winger for the Chiefs - never looked like he didn't belong in Super Rugby. Maybe he's just one of those guys that can make X-fsctor players around him shine but can't be expected to do everything on his own (which is basically what the Highlanders needed).

    Sort of the opposite situation to Levi Aumua, who is great at carrying a team on his back but looks entirely out of place when put in a backline of stars.

    Why? There are plenty who question them, and then if I agree with them I just hit like button. You know I admit that more often or not I agree with the coaches and suspect they know more then me.
    I don't feel the need to point out those that only post when they got complaints that they should post pro coaches etc comments.

    If Hoskins wants to be an AB this is the game for him to lead from the front and show why he should be in the picture.

    Been informed Eklund and Papalii have picked up injuries. A significant chance they could be ruled out.

    Eklund confirmed out. Dalton is playing

    Why would this game make any difference after having a season like he did last year?

    Because Blackadder is injured?

    Love the photo of Mullan. Looks like they just woke him up and told him he's playing his first game of rugby.

    Because it’s the Crusaders, no better statement to make against someone like Lio-Willie who Razor and co seem to favour ahead of him. Point to prove.
