[QUOTE="donmcdazzle, post: 430114, member: 44093"] I can't even believe you're comparing Blyendaal's potential to Crudens. Blyendaal is the next (if he's lucky) Stephen Brett. Donald has benefitted from a coach who has backed him year after year, in or out of form. Cruden will now benefit from this with Rennie. Donald is fine at provincial level, but honestly if you chucked him in the turbos I doubt they'd be doing as well as they are. Cruden's game I reckon is similar in style to Larkham's. Always seem like they threaten the line and fix defenders. Pretty much any decent back movement the turbos have involve Cruden. Next year he will flourish having quality midfielders like Kahui around him. At the moment he is pretty much the only guy opposing defences have to worry about in the backs and he still makes line breaks all over the place. As for Bourke, Ranger I reckon you've summed his problems up. I know all about how he used to be a back and stuff, I think he should've stayed in the backs. He is too skilfull for his own good in that he plays as if he is in the backs. I've said a few times statistics show he is the laziest loosie in the country. [/QUOTE]
