Rebels v Crusaders
-
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.
@KiwiMurph IMO he has the attributes, but shifting someone form 13 to 12 (or the other way) isnt as simple as it sounds, playing there more at Super will help, although seems Havili is preferred there, so he will likely get time back at 13 anyway.
In the training pics I had seen, his knee wasnt even strapped...

@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

Because I think the Crusaders will use Havilli at 2nd five,Goodhue at centre if his form warrants it.
Ennor has had enough chances to lock 13 in.
I can't see the Crusaders putting Haviili on the bench or Goodhue if he is playing well on the bench either.Foster well mate who would know with him probably he will put Goodhue at LH prop.

He played some 13 last year
He played 12 for the AB's after Robertson gave him 11 starts in one season at 12.

Goodhue at 12 is more a reflection of the squad. Razor is doing what's best for the team. I would rather Goodhue there on one leg than McLeod.
-
That Crusaders line-up surprises me. They look to be hunting an all important bonus point.

Isn't that pretty much what happened when razor decided Ennor was a centre?
You're a more optimistic man than I.

I have faith. Havili was at FB then so Havilli and Goodhue still started
Now Havilli is at 12 in the top 23 it may force Goodhue back to 13 .
Well I am hoping . -
Rebels have been poor this year, not expecting much of a contest. Tab offering a 30.5 points start
-
They have.. still down on where they were last year. Injuries have taken away some of their best ball carriers in the pack.
-
Forward pass in that
-
Would have liked to have seen Goodhue popped the pass back inside. A couple of unmarked players. Decision making needs to be his thing.
-
Continuing the pattern of NZ teams getting g pinged early on.
