      Cane did play well, to be fair. But so may have Savea. And Cane REALLY needed to put in a performance as I'm sure he'll realise he's not everyone's choice.

            Yeah we could go there, although it did take your boy McCaw a few years to get up to speed as captain so Cane has time.

                I'm just shitty we don't order guys to take dropped goals. And yeah, same scenario with McCaw in 07.

                  Cane's no nonsense attitude, exceptional workrate and high ratio of dominant tackles make him the first name on the AB team sheet IMHO.

                    I don't think he's worried that @shark the Chiefs hater from the Fern doesn't rate him, he'll just do his business.

                        Move your goal posts as much as you need in order to not look foolish.

                            I think the fact Sam Cane was Man of Match today rather proved the point I was making.

                              It's one game. A game in which a high performance rating on Stuff was 7 and he got a 7.

                              Before all the Cane supporters finish their self-congratulatory game of soggy weetbix, just think about the context of a single game and also that Savea doesn't get the right of reply at openside (and also earned 7).

                                    Those same stats that say Ardie is this unreal dominant defender? Whatever.

                                    Nope. Not sure where u plucked that out of, other than your ass.

                                    Wait a minute... you come on and make up a story about seeing some amazing stats, yet don't reveal what they are or are even about... and @KiwiMurph is the one that's ass plucking? Righto.

                                    I've said several times they're CRFU stats. The coaches use them. But all you need to know is I saw them, and they were 'official'.

                                      I'd like to see the Magpies player stats before we beat you this year (I'm going bring this up as much as I can, it might be my only chance 🙂 ).

                                        Shall we revisit this thread now? I'm expecting some fucking apologies.

                                        Shall we change it to captaincy qualities?

                                        Now you think Savea is a better captain the Cane?!

                                        You think that's what that post means? Or are you attempting to start a 'thing' about the time I claimed Savea was a better skipper than Cane? We can then file that with several other missives such as the doozy about when I said Reuben Thorne was a great AB Captain.

                                          They've been deleted, burned and long forgotten. Like memories of the game. I can't remember anything before the Isaiah Punivai intercept this season.
