      @pakman said in Crusaders v Highlanders (2 April 2021):

      Couple of things I’ve not seen mentioned.

      1. Highlander runners seemed for at least first 60 to back off/slow a tad/change line at last moment going into contact. Result was a bit like when a scrum fakes at hit. Oppo overbalanced and contact ineffective. Whatever it was it really threw Saders momentum at breakdown.

      2. Clan seemed to target running one out and then angling back in behind ruck. Seemed that analysis may have identified space there, and good yards made.

      Seemed also to result in Saders not getting the rub of the red and black, as per usual.

      If I were Super coaches I’d be pouring over tape!

      A bit of actual rugby analysis rather than endless moaning about the refereeing. Awesome stuff!!

      Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

      Pakman was at Dublin 1991, Ellis Park 1995, Twickenham 1999, Sydney 2003 and Cardiff 2007. He's watching on Sky.

      Irish have no chance.

      @Yeetyaah

      You misinterpreted my post

      Simply put Cane is more versatile as a player than Cane

      ala Hooper is with Pocock

      You've got me with that one.

      @Daffy-Jaffy said in All Blacks v Ireland - 1st Test:

      The BBC reports that -
      Second row Iain Henderson has sustained a knee injury and has been ruled out of Ireland's tour of New Zealand.

      Ulster's captain is set to return home after picking up the injury in training on Saturday.

      Very unfortunate. Not a bad player and in this squad would probably be the reserve lock for the test matches as he was in the big 6Ns games.

      Ireland’s most powerful lock.

      @pakman Panadol?

      Leon's AB nickname.

      That nickname shows how much our attitude around concussion has changed. Not sure we'd call someone that now - at least publicly anyway.

      Yes we would.

      No we wouldn’t.

      We are creative here and would call them Nurofen.

      Win at Eden Park and get all posh?

      Gcobani Bobo on the SuperSport program suggested the coaches pick Faainganuku at 12 and honestly it's not the worst idea.

      Was there a worse one? Did someone suggest picking Franks at 12?

      Yes, Schalk Burger suggested @Bones

      Too many shots to the head that guy

      Takes one to know one?

      Bummer. The early prognosis was 2-3 weeks.

      The 'good' news is that if it hadn't been for scans he'd have played on and probably buggered it properly.

      I imagine he'll make a full recovery.

      No replacement.

      The men best placed to feature in an All Blacks development squad in 2022

      While both the All Blacks and Maori All Blacks are now getting their seasons underway with upcoming fixtures against the touring Irish, there's another New Zealand men's side that's waiting in the shadows.

      How is the NZ housing market likely to fare should there be a major recession?

      Watch RBNZ lending/deposits with big banks. They need to grow for market to hold up.

      @Snowy my bank manager suggested I should be looking at an investment property, I said yeah nah.

      I'm not good with handling stress relating to finances and I expect that would just about kill me, am pretty risk adverse when it comes to money.

      A good ETF on the US stock market will give you decent gains with lower risk. Certainly more dynamic than the NZ market. Apple computer alone has averaged over 100% increase from it's 2011 price to date ($10 now $130). Pretty safe

      Be wary. Any rise in US interest rates would have substantial effect on tech prices. Which means US inflation is being watched as a leading indicator. It’s ticking up.

      Very prescient call, if a tad early.

      I'll try to do better next time.

      @Nepia so much hate inside you…

      On your team, I don’t think we can afford to start both Laulala and Karl T. That was a glaring problem for us previously. If both are in the team I hope only one of them starts and the other off the bench.

      They’re our best scrummagers. But think we can start Ofa and Karl and get a good mix, then Nepo and Bower/Ross to finish.
