<p>Why do you refer to Tupou as a lock? As far as I know, he's mainly a loose forward (6/8) who can also play lock. That's why he's such a handy man to have on the bench! Good leader, too. It's unfortunate for Tupou that there are so many All Blacks in the Crusaders forward pack and that Taufua is playing so extremely well, because they keep him out of the squad (not sure why they prefer Tim Boys on the bench). The Blues pack is not so stacked with great players, so he may finally get more game time if he indeed makes the move. I think he would be a good signing for the Blues.</p>

<p>He's played most of his rugby at lock.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>He's a decent enough player, so I don't mind the signing.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But we better not see any of this while he's here.</p>

Is he still a regular talkback caller?</p></blockquote>

I heard him on one of the morning shows recently. Think it was McHardy. Think he lost the plot the day after they lost to Wellington. -

What's Rettalick got to do with anything?<br><br>
I rate him extremely highly as does everyone else. Unfortunately the odd player does get lost. <br><br>
Thankfully we still have whitelock, Romano and Barrett.<br><br>
I never said 8-10 locks were capable of super level berths, I just questioned that abbot is a super level starting lock,. I've seen him play a lot in Christchurch club rugby and I think he's shit. As do others <br><br>
I reckon Boyd and plumtree are 100% correct in starting Fifita and fatialofa. I like Fifita he really rips into things.<br><br>
Stop trying to turn this into another Canterbury v everyone debate, your constant agenda is fucking tiresome -

The discussion was about Mark Abbott<br><br>
The g Paterson thing was quite clearly a joke. Get a sense of humour
