Cruden had a huge hand in three of the tries scored by the All Blacks thus far - pity he was injured. That was where last weeks problem was with the AB's - Carter was just not in the same league as Cruden. Nasty to say - but I think by next year Cruden will be the top choice - and Carter will be history and take up a modelling job.
Carters still world class...
Mike anyone could look good against the irish plonks thisweek. Totally different attitude to last week. Theirish never pitched up and made these hapless as look good. Lets not get carried away I say. The southern queens might have done better!!! Hahahahhahahahahahahaha
Beeno
How about some fuin and games with the New Zealanders on this Board - I was taking a dig aat them here.
Mike so was I but from a different angle. Its the Zulu horns of the buffalo approach then. Hahahahahahaha.
The nz oaks here are a decent bunch but I cant tolerate their excuses for BL! Further ,they have forgotten we are their rugby bosses. Nevermind that reality is about to dawn on them.
you wouldn't recognise reality if it stared you in the face Beeno!
hahahahaha hakwa! Glad you are back mate thought I had frigthened all the kiwis away. Of course it may just have been the baby Bok triumph!
I mean where is my pal ou sitting bull - I worry about him!
What do you make of this win over Ireland. I trust you ar not taking it seriously
@clevermike,
thats one of the reasons why im not worried about carters age, ive been saying that i wouldnt be surprsied to see cruden become the incumbent no10 by years end and how awesome would the ABs look with carter on the bench.
crudens been the form 10 of the spXV and 20mins of carnage showed he can transfer that easily into the All Blacks.
@ben10,
anyone would look good good playing against the irish??? really, cos im pretty sure the Boks have only won 1 of their last 4 irish test matches.
i think what u mean to say is that any All Blacks team would look good playing against the irish, afterall, were the only ones who have never lost to them.
Well seeing as those 4 tests we were away it's no surprise we've only won 1 of them...
They're all reporting how it only took three Chiefs to beat the Irish. Cruden , Cane and SBW but kudos to Beauden Barret also as he also deserves a mention on his debut. He is equally as dangerous giving the ABs incredible depth in the stand off position. Kiwis are spoiled for choice really so it does'nt get much better than that for the ABs going in to the 4N.
@shezza,
not sure what playing the away games has to do with anything. IMO despite what IRB rankings say, the Boks are the 2nd best rugby team in the world and shouldnt lose to the like of ireland (no disrespect to thje irish) anywhere, kind of like the way the All Blacks have never lost to the irish or scotland for that matter.
Bwahahahaahahahahha the rish were the better team in the second test - what happened apart from a huge dollip of luck?
The irish didn't pitch up to play in the third test and only the mosst decived nz mongs will think otherwise - which means most of the natin of course.
Look even that plonk barret looked good. Sbw looked good just like when he fought that old fat samoan but will be flattened the first time he faces a half decent hevyweight. You twits are all about myths, You need to get off the dope you smoke!
I had hoped the walloping the baby boks gave you kiwis- minus most of their backline would have given you mongs pause to think - to engage lonely braincells etc. But here you are blabbering away again!
Bwahahahahahahahahahaaha - mongs will be mongs.
Goodnight to all including these very unfortunate mongs. May ou sittig bull soon recover. May hakwa; sasucks and brycy find the paths of realism and truth and forsake childish the fairy tales they hold so dear!
@ben10 aka der aristokratt aka pieter van zyl,
know ones carried away with this win in NZ, we all recognise it for what it is, a well earnt victory courtesy a near faultless performance.
we played 2 more test debutants, plus gave the recent newbies more game time and this will hold us in good steed come the IRC (4nats) as our depth are geling nicely with our incumbents, something that neither the Boks or wallabies an say.
i know that come the 4nats it will be a different story, SANZAR teams always rise up and go up a level when we play each other and im expecting this year to be no different.
but u say the irish didnt pitch up to play in the thrid test, well guess what, the irish have never pitched up to play in any test as they have NEVER BEATEN THE ALL BLACKS.
as BOD said, the All Blacks are the greatest team hes ever faced and the close win he had in test 2, was right up there with the grnadslam 6nat victory. think about that, even though he played in the 3 victories of the last 4 tests against the Boks, losing to the All Blacks by 3pts was better then a victory over the Boks.
u need to get over ur anti kiwi sentiments, if u didnt attack the referee, McCaw would never have punched the shit out of u in front of ur beloved Boks who looked at u with such contempt and thought, i cant believe this disgusting fat piece of sh!t is a Bok supporter, how embarrasing.
will u accept an apology on behalf of McCaw from me then ben10 aka der aristokratt aka pieter van zyl??? if so, i am very sorry that McCaw beat the living sh!t out of u and gave u a bloody nose to compliment ur 14 stomaches which sagged outsied ur size XXXXXL Bok jersey, much to the disgust of everyone blessed with vision, or cursed with vision as that day would show.
.....sasuke uchiha, sitting bull doesnt think Moonbean could be Aristokrat although both mockingbirds feathers are often green with envy. Aristokrat is big on stats and numbers whereas Moonbean needs to put his hand in pocket just to count to six haha...
Hi there sitting bull my friend glad you have recovered and though you say nothing about the hiding our baby boks gave you (minus most of their frontline backs) I am sure your maths is suffient to allow you to understand you lost the game? Hahahahahahahaha
Well at least you realise I am not Aristocrat and neither am I piet van zyl of course and neither are you all bitter and twisted like hakwa!!!. I suspect hakwa has flipped his lid in the light of the baby boks shattering the delusional image of invincibility he has re ab rugby. Bwahahahahahhahaha.
As for his hero, commonly known as McCheat, well its just like ou sbw flattening a fat samoan. Poor Piet full of beer no doubt took the law into his hands being incenced by cheating down under mong refereeing. What a hero Mccheat was for punching Piet. How brave. McCheat and sbw have alot in common!
Let me assure you hakwa, despite your delusions, the abs are not 60 points better than Ireland. Man you should have lost the second test. Hahahahhahahahahahahaha is there no limit to kiwi arrogance.
As to the future hakwa prepare to resume your pre SA isolation role of being second best to the Boks. Now I do hope ou hakwa can accept all ths without having another hissy fit. If the cap fits wear it!
you must be bored Beeno - LOL what? no fun talking to Sitting Bull and Sasu?
Guys both the All Blacks and Springboks are stong teams.
But unfortunately the Springboks seldom seem to rise to the occassion when confronted by the All Blacks.
Some kind of shell shock going back to the 1952 series in NZ....
Me thinks.
The Kiwi's and Aussies have it so right selecting creative/flair players at 10 - Carter, Cruden, Cooper and Barnes (to a lesser extent) - say no more - and we have MORNE - yipeeeeeeeeee!!!
I know most of this thread is tongue in cheek, but as a South African I just have to say, the All Blacks are the benchmark in rugby, no question! If we can sort out our politics, coaching, selection blunders and get all our Super Rugby franchises to sing from the same song sheet, then I believe that for the next 5 to 10 years we will be as good and possibly better than the All Blacks. We shall see if that happens, but I don't think anyone can dispute that, for the first time in a while, we are at least on par with New zealand in terms of the young talent coming through the ranks.
All blacks are, and pretty much always have been the team to beat. There may however be a changing of the guard......
