      If they swap 6 & 8 around that would be the Crusaders best backrow

            Yep, I reckon could be part of using him now to save a bit for better teams?

                    @Duluth I'm predicting the crusaders will reach 50 points in this game, with Dom Gardiner scoring the final try as Merts on commentary proclaims the Juggernaut that is the Crusaders is back in business!

                      Fucking Ennor! What is the spell he casts that he has now pushed two players way better than him at centre, to other positions. Why don't coaches put him back on the wing where he's electric, or fucking try him at 12?

                            I don't like Ennor as a midfielder because he consistently gets physically dominated by his opposites. Most of NZ's Super Rugby midfielders are 100kg or over & Braydon is 92kg, Havili is 95kg, as a combination they got physically annihilated by Heem & Ioane last weekend (both are 103kg+). Wouldn't it be great to exchange both of them for any of the Blues, Chiefs or Hurricanes midfielders? We would be content with your scraps even..

                              @kiwi_expat he's light boned then! I'd be surprised if he is actually only 92. Either way, I just don't like him in the midfield because he's not a very good midfielder. All his best rugby has been on the wing, apart from the odd outside break he offers nothing at centre and has been outperformed there by.... well most other centres. He should be last resort not first pick (and then fitting everyone better at centre around him).

                                      This is not crying out “next AB coach”

                                      (Happy he’s back though but he’s a pure 13 IMO)

                                      Easing him back with that knee reconstruction.
                                      Not up to his top end speed yet.
                                      Could be they don’t want him to get exposed on the outside break yet.He has been out for over a year with this injury.
                                      As soon as he gets up to speed he will be back at centre.
                                      It actually maybe smart thinking and looking after the player.

                                        @Chris why do you think he'll go back to 13?

                                        I agree it's his best position, bit neither razor or Foster seem to have picked him anywhere but 12 for the last few years.

                                        Happy to be corrected, but I can't remember him in 13 for some time

                                          Speed can take a while to come back after ACL (if at all). The rule of thumb is 12 months.

                                          Goodhue was never the quickest 13 to begin with so 12 may be more his spot.
