Genuine legend. His only crime is stepping into McCaw's boots.

thats fair
i also think coaches havent done him any favours, naming him as captain so early (and then he goes and gets injured) and playing savea behind him who is obviously different too a typical 8 and 6 has been rotating door for years
-
People have been saying that Savea has been in poor form so not so sure about Aotearoa Pods assessment.
He made 5 tackles and missed 3 in the last game. If Akira Ioane had those stats he would have been heckled into oblivion by his haters.
Cane hits hard but he's often inaccurate and at risk of cards.

I wonder if they need his leadership assistance on the northern tour? A true warrior who deserves his 100 tests.

plus he winds up the Irish no end

I’m on record bagging many of his recent performances. But I don’t for a second begrudge him this match, I’m stoked he’s getting a century. Absolute warrior, never seeking the highlight reel or the attention, just working tirelessly with zero respect for his body.
Plenty of more able athletes in this game that have had a shadow of the career that Cane has delivered us.
Rest up pal!

@voodoo did he ever publicly respond to that sledge by POM?
From one side, it was a quality sledge, but I reckon it woulda hurt Cane, and then the RWC last year was perfect revenge...then BBBR fuelled the fire.

Not Cane's style, but I imagine he looked hard into POM's eyes and smiled to himself.

Am pleased that Cane has still been playing without the captaincy this year. Always seemed like one of those guys who is a leader, even if he's not the formal captain. And it takes the wind out of the old 'he's only playing because he's captain' mindlessness.

100 Tests is something to behold
Deserves the send off

He really helped us win those games in South Africa and when he came on in the first Pumas test.

Don’t think he did - not his style
Also, I mean - good sledge sure, but fuck me you could say that to any open side flanker in the bloody world!
