 ...the Kiwis were playing Samoa in the RLWC so only caught the beginning...but what can you say about Richie Mo'unga- what a star and would be happy to see him replace Beauden Barret at 10 for the ABs... swap BB back to fullback - that's his natural habitat

 That is simply down to you being so used to losing rugby you dont know winning rugby when its staring you in the face Beeno.
Come and support the All Blacks and actually find out what winning feels like, you never know it might cheer you up

 With WP winning the Currie Cup I am as cheered up as I need to be. Tough hard rugby - mostly coming from the mighty WP!

Beeno, glad you have something to cheer about, even if it’s sub-par rugby. As Cruz says, come over to the dark side (AB rugby), just one decision, it’s that easy :)

...JW what Bean Brain won't admit to is that the Scottish international HUw Jones won the game for WP with two tries setting up Leyds for another...so well played Scotland for winning the Currie Cup...Huw Jones a player to watch out for in the upcoming 6 Nations..

 HUW JONES IS A WP PRODUCT, AS IS GUY KEBBLE WHO IS ALSO NOW PLAYING FOR THE GLASGOW WARRIORS. 
WE POP UP THE NH TEAMS

 ...Bean Brain the Glasgow Warriors might still be in the European Champions Cup if Jones was playing for them instead of yr dopey team...
...and another shameful example of WP undermining teams is Sergeal Petersen being poached from the Cheetahs next month mid Pro 14 campaign...Petersen is crucial to the Cheetahs as their No1 fullback and they have'nt much hope succeeding in the NH without him...how do these WP supporters sleep at night i don't know ...

seems that the Flying Spaghetti Monster had his noddly appendages all over the Canterbury province this weekend,... Canterbury won the males' NPC, Canterbury won the females' Farah Palmer Cup, Mid Canterbury won the Lochore Cup,... All the Glory for him,...


just watched the males' NPC final,... Richie Mo'unga was utterly outstanding,... he alone drove the team to their 9th title in 10 years (amazing record),... got 2 tries and created another one (Stratton's),... run 140 meters, made 3 ClenBreaks, beat 12 defenders, made 9 tackles (missing 1),... from the initial whistle it was clear that he was out there to prove Hansen was wrong not including him in the official AB squad,... and he definitively made his point


another outstanding player was the vice-captain Tim Bateman putting the ice on the cake of an outstanding season with another try,.... his 9th try in 11games (and 6 try-assists, 636 meters, 23 breaks and 24 defenders beaten),... with Jack Goodhue (now in Northland) the best centers of the competition,.... recently re-signed with the saders for the next campaign, Bateman is the best possible back-up to the incumbent midfield pair Crotty-Goodhue,... and with him the saders keep the whole champion team


Tasman never gave up the battle and proved they were deserved finalists,... James Lowe gave it all (as always) in his last game with the team,... and the young FB Will Jordan was also outstanding with his 158 meters run, 4 breaks and 6 defenders beaten,.... he very probably assured one of the few saders vacant spots for next year,... with the already signed Braydon Ennor (10 tries this NPC season) the saders add some very promising youngs to the champion team


Jordan Taufua was again noticeable for his determination and strength,.... he possibly broke his arm (still to be confirmed) in the early stages of the game and continued playing,... he had to be taken out of the field by the coach at the beginning of the second half coz he wanted to stay and continue playing,.... an incredible player,.... as incredible is that Hansen dismisses him once and again,... he's been the inform blindside of SR for some years now,... he's been the inform loosie of the NPC playing at n8,... he's the most physical loosie in NZ,... he can play in any of the loosie positions,.... and still Hansen calls Dillon Hunt before him (having already 3 opensides in the team),... what a joke

 Have to agree about Jordan Taufua, an outstanding player, gives it everything every game and somehow still cant get into the AB's.
Not sure why Hansen doesn't select him.

 Sergeal Pietersen is a small little fellow Brycy. Why they waste time on the diminutive backs who will never make it at Super comp level is all about quota selections. No I would be very happy for the Cheetahs, who no longer play in the Super Comp to keep him.

 ...Bean Brain too late for regrets, the damage is done....as it is the Cheetahs only just beat the lowly Italian side Zebre at the death by one point on the weekend with their best team - they will struggle now and the Kings are just a joke....not looking good for SA's NH aspirations if you dopes keep stealing their best players...
