Canes are exactly who I thought they were. Just not up to the level of the title winning team
We are probably the second best team in the competition this season. Hard to argue who else is better than us.
I didn't think we would get past the Chiefs last week. Just a step too far
I thought we would be too much for them at home. We did beat them in the two that mattered, although we were helped by being at home.
We were so poor over the last month of the regular season, the bar was pretty low

@dingo I look forward to the still shots and arrows pointing to who stands up first.
No need. As far as I can tell no one has argued it wasn't Codie. The only argument appears to be that because the Crusaders was scrum was dominant (again unargued) therefore because of the zen of the thing, the penalty against the canes was/wasn't due to an obvious rule infringement.

I don't agree with that analysis. Looked to me like Taylor popped up because the canes hooker or TH stood up rather than going backwards. It doesn't matter that codie was the first to pop up if the reason he popped was due to the canes not maintaining a bind.

I think we are in agree to disagree territory. You see what you see. I see otherwise. To be fair, you have a Ref who agreed with you at the time.

Canes monstered.
Average match though. Watched it on 6x catch up and it still wasn't up to much.

Credit to Razor, he's got this side humming. Very AB like in that you think you are in it, then make one mistake and they make you pay almost immediately.

@canefan I dunno about greater than the sum of its parts, it's mostly made up of all blacks. But best SR team by miles
There are a bunch of guys who aren't ABs yet, I'm not convinced they are all of AB standard, but they play very well in the team framework
