Crusaders v Blues
-
@Nepia said in Crusaders v Blues:
I'm sure there were people writing off Kaino at the same age as Ioane, and I daresay that after Taufua's bursting onto the scene with Ta$man he took a few years to become the player he is today.
In another thread it was noted that sometimes loosies just take a bit of time to develop so not sure why the knives are out already.
Not sure whether that's directed at me, but I said on purpose "Akira Ioane may not have what it takes to be an All Black" instead of "Akira Ioane does not have what it takes". I think he has time on his side, but definitely not only his rugby needs to improve, but also his work rate, attitude etc.
Actually, I'd like the AB coaches to try Akira at 6 and Taufua at 8. Just imagine if they both go beastmode (all legally, of course)!

@KiwiMurph his defence in particular has come a long way.

@Bovidae I have it on good authority that Ardie will be moving to 12 long term. But that's yet to be announced as the NZRU are still working through the PR strategy of how to let Money Bill know....
-
@ACT-Crusader will they wait for Dagg to be fit and announce his move to 10 at the same time?
-
@taniwharugby They'll announce that when the team is named. Any idea when that is?

@MajorRage in the sheds at 10am on the day, what rock you been living under?

@taniwharugby Fraggle. I've been breeding with Mokey. The anger in our kids is going to be explosive.
