<p>Except that Cruden has been playing at least two levels above Soponga this year.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cruden is an established, quality All Black. Soponga is the one with everything to prove.</p>

<p>You'd think we were discussing someone that a.) isn't a proven All Black and b.) isn't in fantastic form.</p>

<p>Cruden is a lock for the 10 jumper.</p> -
<p>I heard Rennie on the wireless last week and they said they had been in touch with Hansen and Co re: Cruden not kicking and they had no issues with it and said it would not impact their view of him.</p>

<p>It will still be there somewhere (looks like at moment threads go back to pre-RWC) it will be a matter of finding the correct thread, although it was probably in the squad thread.</p>

Off-topic but compared to other rugby forums the ability to find past posts (even my own) is very poor on this forum. The search function is not great.

<p>Let's just hope he doesn't have any more "alarm" issues....</p> -

Hmm, I can only be convinced if Cruden is going to show some consistently good goal kicking. If not, I'd say Sopoaga has a good chance.</p></blockquote>

I will change my avatar to Quade Cooper if Sopoaga is selected over a fully fit Cruden. I like Sopoaga, but I suspect his ab career will be more Tony Brown than Carlos Spencer. -

<p>This discussion is giving me a bit of deja vu. <strong>Did anyone save Winger's meltdown over the lack of Sopoaga in the RWC squad? </strong>Something along the lines of "even if we end up winning the RWC, it'll just be luck."</p>

<p>I can't remember the timing, had he come out as the tinfoil king at this time or was this back when he was still just an eccentric Canes fan with man crushes on average five eighths originally from HB?</p> -

<p>Nah, he'd definitely outed himself as an anti-vaxxer by that point.</p> -

<p>Aren't you a Queenslander? Offer to change it to Pocock so we know you really mean it. ;)</p> -

Oooooooooooohhhhh now you raised the stakes. For the record, despite living in Brisbane I hate Cooper with a passion and despite the media bullshit, not too many Reds fans shed a tear at his departure. I actually have a massive amount of respect for Pocock the professional athlete. It's the hypocrite sjw greenie tosser that I can't stand.<br><br>
But I digress... to show how sure I am that (a fully fit) Cruden will be selected over Lima, I will change my Avatar to a picture of Cooper AND Pocock if I'm wrong. Fark I'll even throw Ben Afflick in with them.
