Did I hear somewhere - maybe RS - that Jordies' favoured position is centre?? Scary stuff.
12 not 13 but he's getting closer!

Scott Robertson just said on Sky's Team Talk that Taufua is out of tomorrow's game with a calf injury (suffered at the ABs camp; I forgot what he called it; didn't sound like something serious). Pete Samu replaces him and Etan Blackadder gets a spot on the bench.

Jordie has played senior rugby at centre.
I reckon he’s got the attacking game to be an excellent centre. He’s a better front on tackler than chaser IMO, so being in the line probably suits him better as well.

No Moody, Franks, Whitelock, Taufua, Read, Crotty, Dagg... it’s only the Canes I guess

Good to get your excuses in early I guess.
Does this become a pivotal game table wise? I haven't looked that closely. -

Calf muscle injuries have always been the bane of short people. He probably did it competing with Ardie to see who could be the first to hit 1.90m.
All that standing on tip toes whenever photographers are lurking around

I'm excited to see how he goes at 13, he is very good at setting up his outsides when hitting the line from fullback, be interesting to see how he goes at center, he can offload pretty well in the tackle from what I have seen.

@crucial Yeah - the Canes win this one (which they surely will) then they're 2-4 points ahead and also with a game in hand.
Worrying thing for the Crusaders is that we're unlikely to get too many of the missing guys back for the Highlanders the following week.
Perry also missing from ACT's list of ABs - and half a dozen others....

Wyatt showing Crusaders props are nothing if not consistent.
Shields giving hope to kids everywhere that have no coordination.
