@chchfanatic said in 2018 Mitre 10 Cup Form XV:
@dice haha 2 Canterbury players in your 3 teams , yet we’ll still win the Comp.
Canterbury's a bit of a funny one, because they're obviously a top 3 team, but they don't have many players who are the top 3 form players in their position.
-
@dice they’ve had so many injuries. So not many players have played consistently. Only really Romano , bridge and Drummond. To be fair I think any of the top 4 can win it. I’m going for 2 upsets. Wellington over Auckland and Canterbury over Ta$man
-
@chchfanatic and did wellington get two players in the top XVs?
-
@machpants someone had to say it.
-
@chchfanatic Says more about the standard of the comp tbh. That Canterbury team is shit but are still somehow there. Having Romano there has made a huge difference to an average side.
-
@african-monkey thought the quality was much better last year than this year, whereas this year some teams have been very good and then have also been poor, lack of consistency, that I guess is probably about right given the largely amateur nature of many of the players.
