Strange seeing spark on both wings.
I love Carter's angry mo. He's like a pissed off Mario.My thoughts were he's a terrier, or chihuahua, that doesn't realise how small he is.

Can we have Jordie kick plz
What is this fascination with Beaudie kicking? If Jordie is on the field use him. He's just better.

Just don’t get him to take the kick when a playoff game is on the line. Missed two for the Canes in playoffs (both games against the Brumbies) and one for the ABs in the last WC final.
I’m happy with DMac to take the close kicks and Jordie to bang them from longer range.

Jordie can’t replicate the tinny chip kick plays that Beauden does, where the ball bounces on its end and straight into his arms with the defence flat footed.
Then again, neither can Beauden since around 2018

Tamiti Ellison is a bigger thief drawing a coaching salary for defence than he was drawing a salary as a Super rugby player.
Have to admire a man who is defense coach of the Crusaders in their worst season in years and then slides into the All Black job and concedes record amounts of points but receives very little scrutiny for either.
He is the invisible man when it comes to accountability.
His interviews are Scott Hansen esque too.

Kicking in general play, kicking from penalties or goal kicking? Agree that Jordie is better at all of them.

@Canes4life It's called doing a John Terry.

Perth could be a bloodbath. At least it's a good city for egress.

Lakai had a decent cameo. He’s a better 7 than Savea overall. He just needs to work on his 1-2 clutch plays per game to usurp Savea
Huh, I thought he was pretty meh, especially when he swanned off doing fuck all for the maul try. That was quite shithouse.

Beauden gun player in his prime but father time beats no one and it's a good opportunity to give Love and bring in Jacomb or Reihana into the squad a chance to play at 10. Obviously DMac will start next week but these blokes need to be tested at international level playing 10 at some point.
Agreed, apart from Father Time beating no one.

You reckon ? or has he just hit the wall ?
As others said, 31, for a forward is not that old.
I think SB still has a lot to offer. Has been a great forward. I think the captaincy is too heavy a burden.

@BerniesCorner Did it though?

Going back to the discussion around players in NZ that are similar to Read, I feel one guy that I thought would be the next Read is Devan Flanders.
You suggesting a Hurricanes player.
Well, fuck me! -

Well, fuck me!As a Wellingtonian I hate to talk up Hawkes Bay players but to me he would be the most like Read if you compared size and his ball playing ability, aggression and physicality is where those comparisons fall short but he could get there if he had a good stretch without being injured. Playing very well for the Magpies this season.
Hugh Renton was another guy I thought could be the next K Read but probably didn’t reach the heights he could have for multiple reasons. Not even sure if he’s at the Highlanders for next season.
