It's fucken 8.30 bey! -
You fellas crack me up. Quick to judge my XV but too pussy to post your own. <br><br>
The Canes lost yes but like Cane said post match they were lucky to scrape through.<br><br>
I would back my Canes any day than back a team that reverts to negative tactics just to get them out of a hole. Like Coles said it was a bloody coincidence when their prop went off injured. -
<p>Hey now, no one calls MN5 a pussy on the fern and gets away with it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Given I didn't watch a single game it might not be terribly accurate but how about I go for your exact 15 apart from Ellis and Cruden in for Perenara and Barrett ? is that ok ?</p> -

To expand...you're expecting people to believe the Canes lost to the Chiefs with the form 9/10, while the Chiefs beat them with no one of note and the Crusaders trounced the Brumbies with a shit halfback. Ummm...</p></blockquote>
<br>
So your saying Cruden and McKenzie are no one of note. Hahahaha ummmmmmmmmm. <br><br>
Kicking aside Barrett outclassed Cruden and Perenara played better than Webber. -

Nope, that's you saying that. Why put kicking aside? It's pretty fucking important eh. Ellis played better than Perenara. -

Why should I bother debating when guys I'm debating with dont even watch the games. <br><br>
This is hilarious. -

<p>Sorry Bones, I was busy trying to find an amusing meme to correct Canes4life's confusion over your/you're he must have slipped my mind.</p> -

<br>
You said it before. OMG.<br>
Yeah but Cruden didn't kick so your argument is invalid. <br><br>
If you think Ellis was better that's cool. I thought Perenara was more dangerous this week. Kapeeessh -

<p>You posted the team of the week and are vigorously defending the 9/10 axis. The same axis that lost to a team with halfbacks and a first five that weren't as good happarently.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Dangerous is good if it's only to the opposition and doesn't include your own team. Making glaring mistakes at crucial times is pretty dangerous, I agree.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm willing to bet Cruden kicked.</p> -
Like the number ten that set up a beaut try to Jane and a near try to old butter fingers to win the match, while also dottting down himself and breaking the line with ease at times.<br><br>
Oh blimey my judgement must be shot. <br><br>
I cant even remember what Cruden contributed to the game apart from running into Barretts elbow. -

<p> </p>
<p>Considering he was the pivot for the winning team I'd say he must have contributed something. At least his goal kicking was at 100% unlike Barrett's</p> -
Fair call. <br><br>
Going off topic a bit wouldnt you think it would be smart of Barrett to take a non kicking approach to games like Cruden so that Hansen and co have nothing to judge. Obviously Barrett wanted to persist with his goal kicking in the first place to get a notch up on Cruden but that game on Saturday didnt do him any favours. The question now is does he back himself to turn it around against the Lions or does he pass the duties to Woodward... -

<p> </p>
<p>.....I think it's probably best that he doesn't pass anything to Woodward judging by what happened over the weekend......</p> -
hahahah i actually had a laugh to myself when Woodward dropped that ball. Has the other N.Z teams paid him off to fuck shit up for the Canes. First he kicks the ball away in the 79th minute against the Highlanders and then he decides to bomb it against the Chiefs. Maybe the Canes should sub him when the score is close near the end from now on. Crickey.

<p>Rennie says Cruden has been practising his kicking and likely to take over in the next week or so from D-Mac, based on some of BB's kicks, you would wonder if he has been</p>
