You referring to the crusaders tackle earlier that was only penalised?

And after all that, 17+ still squeaks in as a safe tip (conversion assuming...)
Pretty good by a severely depleted crusaders. Held their nerve in the end and were only going to get done by a miracle or two.

The old stager has come to the party. I think I prefer Heinz to Drummond. Felt Drummond was too hesitant whereas Heinz has been decisive.

Dallas McCleod looks the business.
Really struggling with your concept of comedy fella.
Just saw the highlights. Was he shit in the overall game?

Definitely improved on last season and looks at home at super level - but the calls from a wee while ago for him to be an AB after one good game were over the top.
Keeps this up he'll definitely be in contention next year, especially if he shows he can cover 13 too.

I agree. Two good (not outstanding) games do not make you a contender for the ABs. Otherwise, players like Kini Naholo or Brett Cameron could be in the same bandwagon.
Canes have been asked to put Kini on ice so there's no analysis for the RWC.
Oh, wrong thread

Thoughts. The Crusaders are missing Hall big time, although Heinz is an experienced campaigner, he isn't a starter. Might have to start the young fella halfback and hope for the best. Dom Gardiner is showing the most potential out of all the up-and-coming, young loosies in the comp. Lock is not his position but he adds a Graham Higginson-type presence anyway.
Aumua at 13 for Moana is the dog's balls. Potentially could be a big presence at a higher level esp. surrounded by better players. -
Ooooh, and very telling comments by Mounga on how Razor lets him play his natural game in the Crusaders...

Its probably more indicative that a lot of people are not settled on our AB centers currently, and happy to consider options.

Yeah I don't get why McLeod is being talked about for higher honours. For me as a Saders supporter, I am almost getting to the point where I don't cringe when he is in the 23. I hope he has a long way to go before donning the black jersey.
I think one of McLeod's issues is his speed is very Goodhue-esq, except he has yet to show the smarts to go with it.
