    @Canes4life Christie is shit, so lucky for the canes that he's off. Was glad to be rid of him at the Chiefs. Good trade for TTT in the long run. Isn't Booth coming back? Maybe they'll pick him up again.

    Look I know you're a Chiefs fan but it's a bit mean to wish Booth on the Canes.

    @Chris I think I've written this in another thread once or twice but I don't think that BB is as far out in front of his competitors to risk a break from the ABs.

    Yeah Would have to agree maybe age is catching up or burnt out a bit.

      Is Booth really the answer? He has been around a number of Super Teams without actually making a mark yet.

      @Higgins No Booth isn't up to SR, he's to slow a distributer for SR in my opinion.

        If BB puts in a POTY performance at the RWC then he will have a lot of credit in the bank for a return post-sabbatical.

            Beauden Barrett hasn't yet committed to the Blues

              Even if he does, it will be 2022 won't it?
              Not sure he would be the same player if he loses much of his pace.

                @Darren I think this is very relevant, if he's away from NZ for a decent chunk, get's slower, how much value will he add when he gets back? He's not DC who we've seen his game change well before BB's age now (look at his tries scoring rate over his career). So is it worth the canes going all out to get him for possibly 2 seasons hence (2022+)? I dunno, he'll still add value with all his experience, esp at SR level, but enough that you give up on other players?

                  In the article it says Carter used to travel back and forth from Auckland to Christchurch for his Crusaders commitments. What a pain in the ass that would have been. Nonu did it this year from Auckland to Welly as well. Crazy commitment.

                    I’m not too bothered on Beaudy going to the Blues if it’s two years down the track. He would have lost his pace by then. I’d rather throw that money at an up and coming playmaker that is actually available for the next two years.

                      There’s always one or two of these type of stories around Origin time.

                                  Mate, it's great to have you here on the Fern, but don't get lazy and slip into the mainstream media narrative. Aumua was stupid, adn could easily have copped a card on the day - but to suggest that refs and citing commissioners are somehow influenced by the poorest Tier 1 team is laughable.

                                  Just look at Lions 2 and Lions 3 for examples of ref interpretation NOT favouring kiwis.

                                  Good luck for the weekend anyway; and if you do get up, I'm really not sure a trip to Chc is winnable for you, especially if the Canes can demo your scrum. Crusaders are smart enough to exploit that to the hilt,a nd take the points, territory and possession that cancome with it

                                    @Jaguares4real I suppose the Canes get one back after TJ Perenara’s head was taken off against the Lions.

                                      @Jaguares4real said in Super Rugby News:

                                      But then we know about the invisibility cloak ABs have around foul play 👀 👀

                                      Mate, it's great to have you here on the Fern, but don't get lazy and slip into the mainstream media narrative. Aumua was stupid, adn could easily have copped a card on the day - but to suggest that refs and citing commissioners are somehow influenced by the poorest Tier 1 team is laughable.

                                      Just look at Lions 2 and Lions 3 for examples of ref interpretation NOT favouring kiwis.

                                      Good luck for the weekend anyway; and if you do get up, I'm really not sure a trip to Chc is winnable for you, especially if the Canes can demo your scrum. Crusaders are smart enough to exploit that to the hilt,a nd take the points, territory and possession that cancome with it

                                      @nzzp I'm pretty sure it won't be long until the poaching of south sea islanders is brought up, just to go for the full house.

                                          I agree with this.
