Canterbury v Tasman - Mitre 10 Cup Premiership Final

[Canerbry]

Well done Richie Mo'uanga, one of the great performances for Canterbury.

So Richie Mo'unga now holds the new record of points scored by one player in a final (25 points)?

[Canerbry]

TJ cutting loose this is awesome. Crusaders S Champs, 9th NPC trophy in 10 years.

So is it if your team is captained by a Whitelock you'll win the comp?

[Stargazer]

@bones If true, they should make Sam the All Blacks captain asap! For eternity!

Richie mouaga is the man. One of the best games I've seen from a Canterbury 10

Mo'unga's stats

Sopoaga will be having nightmares about Mo'unga. Breathing right down his neck for that backup 10 spot at the moment.

Not suggesting he should be an AB, and probably doesn't have enough "x-factor" but a more hardworking loose forward than Luke Whitelock is hard to find.

Correct whitelock has really impressed me and I personally think with kaino nearing the end whitelock and ioane are the next best 2

I hope he doesn't go overseas just yet. But him and Brad Shields must be attractive targets for overseas clubs. I'm not sure what else Whitelock could do TBH, other than find a bit of x-factor. I thought he was a bit of a donkey when he made that ABs wider training squad a few years back, but his last couple of seasons have been very good.
