Move your goal posts as much as you need in order to not look foolish.

Cane did play well, to be fair. But so may have Savea. And Cane REALLY needed to put in a performance as I'm sure he'll realise he's not everyone's choice.
I don't think he's worried that @shark the Chiefs hater from the Fern doesn't rate him, he'll just do his business.

Yeah we could go there, although it did take your boy McCaw a few years to get up to speed as captain so Cane has time.
I'm just shitty we don't order guys to take dropped goals. And yeah, same scenario with McCaw in 07.
Can't we just blame it on Mo for not taking the kick like how Lucky was blamed in 07?
Or the story in the paper I quoted in the first post of this thread, maybe.

Cane's no nonsense attitude, exceptional workrate and high ratio of dominant tackles make him the first name on the AB team sheet IMHO.
Was true 7 days ago and is still true.
Quote myself to prove my own point. I see how that works.
I think the fact Sam Cane was Man of Match today rather proved the point I was making.

It's one game. A game in which a high performance rating on Stuff was 7 and he got a 7.
Before all the Cane supporters finish their self-congratulatory game of soggy weetbix, just think about the context of a single game and also that Savea doesn't get the right of reply at openside (and also earned 7).

Those same stats that say Ardie is this unreal dominant defender? Whatever.
Nope. Not sure where u plucked that out of, other than your ass.
Wait a minute... you come on and make up a story about seeing some amazing stats, yet don't reveal what they are or are even about... and @KiwiMurph is the one that's ass plucking? Righto.

Now you think Savea is a better captain the Cane?!

I've said several times they're CRFU stats. The coaches use them. But all you need to know is I saw them, and they were 'official'.

I'd like to see the Magpies player stats before we beat you this year (I'm going bring this up as much as I can, it might be my only chance
). -

You think that's what that post means? Or are you attempting to start a 'thing' about the time I claimed Savea was a better skipper than Cane? We can then file that with several other missives such as the doozy about when I said Reuben Thorne was a great AB Captain.

).They've been deleted, burned and long forgotten. Like memories of the game. I can't remember anything before the Isaiah Punivai intercept this season.

The more you post @shark without a mea culpa, the dumber you look. Take a break.

So Paul Cully's ratings is your argument? Ok.

You're the one brought up captaincy in the Cane vs Savea Debate! I was simply asking a question so as to confirm if this is still a discussion about Cane vs Savea or whether you're now shifting the goalposts to the merits of Cane's captaincy to deflect from you looking like an idiot for questioning his playing ability
-
@KiwiMurph Nah, but they're a yardstick.
I've never actually said anything negative about Cane's game today, sans one possibly unfair jab at not calling a dropped goal attempt.
But I'm trying to bring some context to the argument that there isn't an argument for Savea, especially after today.

You're the Muppet (among others) who can't seem to understand I've never said he's not a good player. He may even be the better choice - so long as we're deficient at 6 - due to his defensive abilities. But that doesn't mean he's the better openside flanker.
-
To be fair to @shark , who seems to be getting smashed from all angles, his argument as I understood it was that Savea is a better 7 than Cane.
Nothing more, nothing less.
So a day when the AB's sucked and Cane played really well at 7 and Savea was average at 8, doesn't really move the dial either way?

😂 Yeah good one. I had a meeting with Eddie Jones and he had unseen video footage of Akira that proves you wrong. He showed it to me and that's all you need to know.

Yes. I'm the cockwallet. And you're the guy pretending you saw some stats yet you can't even say what they are or are about. Sounds legit bro! 😂
