<p>Thoroughly excellent display from the Canes, really did not see this coming. The Crusaders pack has been out-muscled. Canes hitting form at the right time.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Really don't think players like Romano are still AB material.</p>

<p>Yeah, would prefer to see Barrett or Bird in ahead of Romano.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Reckon the biggest problem with the Saders pack is they took Franks off way, way too early.</p> -

Glad you're not an AB selector. -

<p>Yep, Romano is very average.</p>
</div>

<p>Not as average as Crotty. How Crotty is in the ABs is beyond me. To think that a few clowns on here wanted him over SBW last year is truly laughable.</p> -
Come on saders get rid of tge canes BP please

<p>I think when the RC squad is named you'll find Hansen is a clown so.</p> -
<p>Well that sums it up.</p>
-
<p>I thought the Crusaders were title contenders: absolutely not!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I didn't think the Canes were title contenders: they are definitely in with a chance.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>That was a rout.</p> -
<p>yup....get on the plane lads</p>

Great game from canes. Dominated up front. And quite possibly their best game of the year.<br><br>
9 10 was key difference for me. S whitelock massive loss for home team.<br><br>
Role on the next game -

<p>Hansen is a great coach but he's not perfect. He's made selection mistakes before, and will continue to do so like every other coach.</p> -
35-10<br><br>
That was a statement and a half. -

<p>I don't disagree. But there are a fair number of people who feel Crotty is worth his AB spot: yes he's not that dynamic on attack, but he reads the game well, and his defence is excellent. Minimal fuss, calm head, makes right decisions. I won't be fussed if he isn't in the match day 23, but he will definitely make the squad for sure. Compare some of the headless chicken stuff we saw from the more dynamic Fekitoa etc during the Welsh series...</p>
