Wondering if the Canes shit goal-kicking has cost them this game
36-25. 12 easy points missed
Shit goal kicking and shit lineout first half were the worse aspects. Get Cameron at first and hopefully Coles returns and canes might give Crusaders a run next week. But inly if the lineout and goal kicking imprives

I feel like Telea is like a league winger in that he is not super fast but really good in a tight space. Some of runs are like scampers out of dummy half.
The opposite of Clark. Outstanding balance and strength - solid lower back means he just doesn't bend

Sounds like you are describing Cory Jane. And he was a very good All Black

I think 12 easy points is a bit over top, think 8-10 I would of hoped for, but as we know any successful kick changes the next thing that happens. Even Blues missed a sitter, so I wouldn't right it off that easily.
But I will if the Canes had of kicked another 15 points I have feeling Telea would of just scored 5 more tries, man he was fairly good wasn't he? -

If the Chiefs beat the Brumbies in the next game the Crusaders could do the same and rest a few players as they can’t be caught for 2nd if the Chiefs win.
It could be the battle of the second stringers.Couldn't agree more, coaches probably won't or shouldn't risk more players than they need to if they get into that position!

Telea is such a solid player. May not be as spectacular as a Will Jordan but utterly dependable.
Def. the sort of player you need in a RWC.

What a game.
Surely Mark Telea is the AB 14. Imagine those trys in a World Cup!
He was due, there were beginning to be rumblings that he'd been quiet recently after the strong start to the season, so excellent to see.

On tonight's evidence I'm not even sure that's true ...

Yeah I've got him above Jordan. Just makes every decision on the money. But I don't seem to rate Jordan as high as most people anyway.
