Knowler trolling a bit with his 'Power Rankings'
Crusaders 2nd, Hurricanes 5th
-
he might be, but you know there isn't a team at the top of the table that didn't see that result on the weekend, and thought "fuck" as they picture running out in a sudden death final against those jerseys.
-
I don't think they played well. Plenty of the same issues there
They may improve but they are a long way away from the level they need to be at
-
that's not what i am saying. They won, they won big, and there isn't a player in the comp that hasn't played them and lost in a final, often for teams that would have thought they were the better side leading in.
Rugby is a mental game, and the Crusaders' record is such that some would definitely have thought "here we go" with a big win and some big name troops starting to come back, and finals on the horizon.
Do i realistically think they will go past the first week? no. But that's not my point. Someone is going to have to break a hoodoo to knock them out
-
All I said is that Knowler is trolling.
It was a scratchy win in most area's apart from the scrum. A positive step but not much more.
Did you watch it? What did you think?
-
no i didn't but you are missing my point.
-
No I undetsrand it and don't disagree with it.
I'm just saying Knowler is trolling and the win is being massively overrated by some
-
oh he's seriously trolling. And it's not a bad one either really. The wording of the whole Hurricanes portion is delicious
-
The main reason I posted it was to bring it to the attention of @Canes4life

@Machpants it wasn’t that good of a performance. You were very critical of it
The canes? I didn't watch, I missed it thinking kick off was 7. Or the blues?

Haha Knowler has to be trolling here. If he's serious it's a concern. Can't trust those one eyed Cantab journos.
Also, does he not understand what the concept of a Power Ranking system is? You shouldn't be able to gain that many positions, and you shouldn't be able to lose that many positions in one week.
-
i can understand the Crusaders jump in position a hell of a lot easier than the Highlanders jumping 5 after beating...the force...at home....by 1 point....7-6...any other year and that would loose you points

He wants clicks, eyeballs and controversy. Like damn near every journalist.

@KiwiMurph not having Proctor in the frame at all is the biggest troll.
