<p>Have you seen him play this season? Not the form 6 in world rugby by a long shot.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>And yes, he was robbed in 2011 :)</p>

<p>Yeah, I'm not sure we are going to see the best of Kaino at Super level anymore. He's at the McCaw stage of his career where he saves his best for the ABs.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In saying that he pretty much carried the Blues forward pack around on his back for most of last season.</p> -
<p>Weird responses around Kaino - so when Carter and McCaw (or even Franks and A Smith) weren't starring in early rounds of Super Rugby they weren't considered the best in the country in their position?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As for the 'form 6 in world rugby' business - where did I say that? </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ok, how about we just change it to Tana has a completely shit squad then. ;)</p> -
<p>To be honest, I think the Crusaders are seeing some benefit from not having McCaw in the team.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>the last few years it was pretty obvious he only got into top shape when the AB season was looming.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Last year he had the worst tackle percentage of all NZ loose forwards in the comp. This year we have some of the best in this area.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Franks has hit this season in much better form than the previous few. </p> -
Is TJ Faiane fit yet or still injured?<br><br><br>

<p>ACL - out for the whole Super Rugby season. Hopefully ITM Cup can get some game time. I still fear his body isn't cut out for this level of rugby.</p> -
<p>It was meant to be rainy, but the weather is looking primo. Why do I even check the Auckland weather forecast anymore?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hopefully it stays fine for the match.</p>

<p>If he's listed at 92kg, I think a few more kilos should do it. 96 should be a good weight for his height.</p>
