I think I recall someone writing "Bower can fuck off"!
I could be completely off base, but I do get a sneaking suspicion that could have been a certain poster who mysteriously promotes Hodgman above all others?

@BerniesCorner Not surprisingly, I would have picked Whitelock as captain, but I didn't mind the pick of Sam Cane.
The problem is, he's struggling to command his place and that's unbalancing our loosies.
I still reckon the scenario outlined by chchfanatic is a runner - though they might skip Joe Schmidt as the short run Head Coach.

@Chris-B We are going to end up with pretty much the Crusaders backbone without the main man. NZRs fault.
Over the past 20 years GOAT and Read were automatic picks. SW is also an auto.Oh you mean Razor?
I thought the current Mr Contrary poster on here was going to argue that it isn't Razor but Ryan that is the real reason for Crusaders success therefore we can keep Foster but luckily that fishing lure hasn't occurred to him yet. -

Only saw the highlights, not the full game but went for Frizell, R Ioane and Savea.
Havilii looked decent too but out of principle I can’t vote for him.
Because Tonga beat Scotland in 2012 and anyone of Tongan descent feels your highland ire a decade later?
I'm guessing this is not true but a decade long burning sense of Utu is a great reason. -

Ok someone is going to think I've been hacked but
JBarrett. His kicking but most importantly work in the air were the key reasons we won.
Always knew one day you'd acknowledge the brilliance of one the Canes' very finest. 🤣

I'm guessing this is not true but a decade long burning sense of Utu is a great reason.That’s clearly not it - he picked an actual Tongan as one of his other options.

I chucked a vote in for Cane. There may have been 3 better performances but he put in a huge spell that doesn’t seem to be getting much love. A number of times he had to cover ground to clean up after half breaks and breaks and his link play was good.
It’s not his fault that he’s being asked to play a different role than we may expectHe was crucial to everything we did well in the first half

Really? It was just a test to see if you are like those Scottish men I know who hold obscure grudges that everyone else has forgotten about.
Reminds me that my Glaswegian bro in law used to say 'While the Irish English and Welsh were fighting each other we were fighting our natural enemies: ourselves."
