QF Crusaders vs Reds
-
Apart from the front row because I don't really know what the fat kids get up to, but I think the team is spot on. No complaints from me selection wise.
-
@Chris I probably under-rate Jager more than he deserves, because for several years I didn't think we should have signed him.
He's clearly a decent prop at Super rugby level now, so I don't have any quibble with him starting. Can he get to AB level? I guess he's only 26.....

Maybe he could there is some talk of him being able to step up to that level.
He is mobile and does a lot of work I have re watched games and he does do a power of work.
So does Bower,actually Newell and Brewis too we have a good bunch of props there.
I have been impressed with Brewis who I wasnโt sure about when he was selected.
Newell I had seen at schoolboy level he looked like a future AB then . -
Life moves fast sometimes, Bridge went from starting the majority of All Blacks tests in 2021 to not being able to make the Crusaders starting line up at crunch time, this is just an observation! I like George from Gisborne but Leicester obviously is in some form๐

@FakatavaFuture George seems to have gone backwards at a rate of knots.
He's barely offered any offensive threat this year - in stark contrast to Big Leicester, Reece and Jordan.
I'm glad to see you've come out of a three year coma.

Where's that Fernies nomination thread?

@Frank said in QF Crusaders vs Reds:
Has Gallagher leapfrogged Strange and Dunshea or are either Strange and Dunshea injured? Gallagher looks a real prospect. 117 kg and not a stringbean is a good start.
Dunshea suffered a season ending Knee injury a couple months ago.
Strange tore a calf muscle a while back.Both are unavailable. -

@Machpants
