@nzzp @Crucial Bridge = Ralph v 2.0
I'll be pissed if they go with the safe boring option. Clarke should be the starter every day of the week ending in a y.
Well seeing as tests are often on a Satdee or a Sundee I can see them going with Bridge on occasions.
So he'll get the odd Bledisloe but nothing else.
My preferred back three are Barrett (the good one), Rieko and Clarke, with Goodhue and ALB in the midfield.
How's that going to happen - Clarke and Rieko both play left wing?
I didn't know there was a rule that wings are only ever allowed to play one side.
You must have missed the comments yesterday about picking specialists.

Sooo....why the fuck can't Ennor play 12? He's not exactly busting down doors at 13 and Goodhue is suffering as a result...
I don't know, TBH. Maybe he's always played 13 or wing and they feel a shift in one spot is too much at this relatively early stage of his career? To me, he doesn't look like a 12 but, then again, he doesn't look like a 13 (yet) either.

Ardie at 8? Yuck

Yep. That's particularly concerning when we've got two big, quick and skilful guys who are specialists in that position in the squad.

He's a fucking 7.
Talk about ignoring lessons

For what it's worth, my 23:
Moody Ofa T
With the 6 props named I don't think you will see much of Ofa at LH again. Cron and Hansen seemed to want to move him there with varying results.
Late in the North-South game when Ofa returned to play LH with Ta'avao at TH and Scrafton at lock, the NI scrum was going backwards.

Not sure if this would happen but I would love to see this backline:
9. Smith 10. Mo’unga 11. Ioane 12. J Barrett 13. Goodhue 14. Jordan 15. B Barrett
21. Perenara 22. McKenzie 23. Leinert-Brown -
@Canes4life JBarrett at 12 suddenly seems a whole lot more attractive doesn't it. Size and goalkicking... could be good

Second, couldn't agree more. Clarke and Jordan could not have been more dynamic the other day when compared to what we've had to our up with Reece and Carthorse Mark II.
What a shit way to talk about a player.

Especially if he's from the Crusdaers.

@Bones No, that has nothing to do with it and you know it. And I'm sick of people responding to every comment I make with "Crusaders this, Crusaders that". Especially you.
If I can't even comment on the Fern anymore without getting responses like that all the time, I may as well leave.
I just hate the way some people on the Fern talk about some players, especially the name-calling, regardless of which team he plays for.

No I don't know it. He called him carthorse, oh horror of horrors! What an absolutely disgusting display of horse shaming! My god how ever would someone cope with that atrocious display of horrible words thrown at them!
You get "crusaders this, crusaders that" because there's been disparaging remarks made about all sorts of players, yet you've taken the tamest, most innocuous comment and called it out....waddaya know it's a crusaders player...
-
@Bones This is my first reaction on many, many posts about Bridge in several threads over the past few months. If there was the same diarrhoea of posts about another player, of another team, there would have been plenty of people who'd have responded without getting accused of bias.
I've had enough.

@Stargazer it's cool mate, Bridge is bloody hard to get excited about though, eh? I'd have your back if they dissed young Will, for for sure !🙂
( and you do realise you bagged out the actual Caleb Ralph too, quite fiercely😉, who by all accounts is a sterling fellow )

Well he's no Dagg when it comes to facials, could do better.

Would you prefer if I called him "treadmill"?
