    @Bones Jesus fuck really???!!!

    Care to dispute it? Or is that your best effort?

    He's next to useless, so I'm exclaiming given you're saying he's your second-best back, on form. I think maybe you need to go and hit the tackle bags yourself and get rid of some of that pent-up rage.

    Not all of us have a range of ABs to pick from, he’s better then those we seem to be favouring is all that annoys me....as in he has done more than give away cards

    The Crusaders' playing stocks aren't really relevant to your argument re Walden. It's relevant that he may be better than Tomkinson, but you're setting a fairly low bar.

    Next to useless? He's a starting quality 12. He certainly didn't look next to useless carving up Canterbury on the weekend in the Shield game.

    He's a million miles away from a starting SR 12! And yes he did well against the experienced duo of Rameka Poihipi and Isaiah Punivai. That's one hell of an endorsement.

    @shark the Highlanders backs functioned well last year with 9 Smith 10 Ioane 12 Walden.

    So what do they decide to? Shift Ioane to 12. That worked out well...

    Yeah I don't know what the answer IS, but I do know it's NOT Walden (or Ioane at 12).

    It's a pity Thompson isn't sticking around, because a 12 Thompson 13 N Punivai midfield could have been good.

    That I agree with, I think it things like Thompson going that makes things worst

    @Snowy you were annoyed enough to come in and correct my language

    Didn't even know it was you (and annoyed is a bit strong).
    It was in quotes so assumed that was from somebody else that got it wrong and distributes poorly proof read information from the deep south.

    πŸ˜‚ Yeah so much pent up rage. So much rage in my posts. Thanks for making it clear you just came in to talk utter bullshit though. Cool by you that I hit a few bags on Tuesday? Thanks for the amazing advice, seems it's as sound as your judgement of rugby players.

    Just so I'm clear: if I don't think Walden is much chop, I'm not watching, but if I thought he was, I must be watching? So on this basis, the Highlanders coaches are blindfolded? Or just out and out blind? Or far too busy playing Fortnight in the box to notice Walden's unrelentingly pulsating performances?

    @shark just so I'm clear - loads of people think he's quality yet you say he's useless. He's not even super level yet he absolutely diced a couple of super level players when winning the shield last week. Looks great holding that shield eh.

    Poihipi and I Punivai are SR players? Can you not do better than amateur-ish inaccuracies and silly off-topic digs?

    By the way, I'm expecting massive things from Walden next year. In MLR, given even the Highlanders don't deem him worthy of a contract next year.
