Carter's was awesome.</p></blockquote>
<br>
His covering defence is like Cullys, in that his pace gets him in the right place -
Excellent - got my win
-
Another comfortable win. I'm happy with how we are progressing post the big 4's retirement.

<p>AB'S Streached out in to 4th gear for 10mins and then eased off.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Job done. Hope AC is ok.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Wales just not in the same class</p> -
<p>Good to see Bender still getting plenty of hands on the ball even playing wing</p>

<p>Aaron Cruden was taken from the field in the 32nd minute of the All Blacks second test against Wales with a suspected neck injury.<br><br>
Cruden went in to contact with a couple of Welsh forwards and appeared to go down awkwardly.<br><br>
Referee Jaco Peyper stopped play as Cruden was tended to in the middle of the field.<br><br>
Play did not resume for several minutes while Cruden was taken from the field via medicab.<br><br>
According to Sky TV, <strong>Cruden was taken to Wellington Hospital during the halftime break for precautionary x-rays.</strong></p>

<p>Better game from both teams this week.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I hope they keep the back 3 for next week; Crotty-Tamanivalu midfield, A Smith-Barrett with Sopoaga on the bench. I hope to see Codie Taylor and Ardie Savea to get a start next week, and Elliott Dixon instead of Kaino.</p>
