@No-Quarter Fuuuuuck imagine ALB at 12 and Goodhue at 13 for the AB's.

@Bones
Jordie Barrett has been disappointing this season each time he was playing with the 15 jersey. He's more suited to the 2nd 5/8 position IMO.I only saw the first 20 or so minutes but this post is a cracker based on my viewing. Good call ๐

@Yeetyaah That may happen in the games against minnows, or if Crotty is injured.
There should be little debate that ALB is a superior player to Crotty, in both talent and form.
-
@mariner4life You're hilarious!
-
Yep. Be good to see ALB & Goodhue get some serious gametime together. Hansen and co. really need to sort the starting 12/13 combo.

It's quite simply true. Crotty has been a decent placeholder. When available. Good glue player. But ALB just has more talent, and is currently living up to it.
-
@mariner4life And I think you're simply wrong. Crotty is uncontested the best organiser of the defence in tight games. I wouldn't trust any other midfielder with that job in the big games.
He's way more than a decent placeholder. ALB is a good player, but not consistent enough.
-
@Stargazer not consistent enough? Seems to be stringing a huge number of quality games together. In all jerseys.

That's because of the opportunities that come when you're not always injured.
-
@Stargazer I think they will pick Laumape before Nonu. I think Nonu will only get in if we have injuries throughout the campaign.

12 Sonny Bill
13 Ryan Crotty
14 Anton Lienert-Brown23 Jack Goodhue
You heard it here first!

@mariner4life 100% won't happen.

That's what my wife said.

I see Crotty as a really important squad member. Someone that can come in and do a job at the drop of a hat, and provide plenty of leadership and guidance to younger guys during the tournament. ALB and Goodue are miles ahead at this stage, and based on form I actually think SBW has looked the best of the power centres so far - I'd have him on my bench if he could just stay fit for more than two games.

@Canes4life I was noticing how โgassedโ he looked having to chase (no pun intended) he was blowing a few times which is weird since heโs been training full time with the canes aswell as playing basically full games should have match fitness by now.
