The Canes are known as a very inconsistant team and are the only NZ team to not have won a title.<br><br>
I am not saying that the Canes are a bad team, they can beat any other team in this comp when they play to their potential the problem is getting them to play to their potential consistantly.<br><br>
Last year was by far the best they have played and they were worthy finalists but they are not replicating that this year so far</p></blockquote>
<br><br>
It doesn't prove your point because the Canes are playing the Highlanders (who lost to the Reds and Blues THIS season), not the Crusaders in their golden years.<br><br>
You are saying the Canes won't get close because the Highlanders are such a consistent team. They are no more consistent then the Canes, both this year and in their entire Super rugby history. -
<p>In a short term basis Highlanders are playing better rugby than the Canes hence I believe the Highlanders will win Understand me now?</p>
-
<p>Good point the Highlanders were far better then the Canes last week.</p>

<p>Not really, because you started off by saying that you were talking about their consistency since the start of Super Rugby. </p>

<p>Edit: In general, I agree though. From a short-term look at their performances, the Highlanders should have this.</p> -
That has been the cas in most games for them this season...guess those southerners are a bit slower
-
<p>wasnt that a fair steal in that lineout??</p>

I'm concerned about A and B Smith playing in the rain, for the good of the All Blacks they should really be subbed early in case they catch a cold.
-
Also, that was an awkward looking left handed pass from Fekitoa. He has a lot of work to do on his passing game.

<p>Fekitoa as well. He is going to be essential to the AB mid field this year. These Highlanders have a roof, they aren't used to this bad weather.</p> -
Oh dear Sopoaga's illegal boot has gifted Ardie a try.
-
<p>TRY</p>
-
<p>WTF was that Marshall </p>
-
<p>that Cory Jane fella looks decent</p>
-
Jane looking good early.<br><br>
Harsh penalty there I didn't think that was tackle ball. -
Lol that was a blatent penalty by J Savea playing the ball on the ground.
