[QUOTE="nickdnz, post: 515556, member: 38640"] Maitland is probably the quickest player in NZ, it's been criminal how little he's been used, especially considering he was Super Rugby's joint highest try scorer last season. I actually wanted him in the All Blacks last season, Adam Whitelock on the other hand is one of the most average players to start for any team in Super Rugby. Ever. Solid is about as generous term that can be used to describe him. I agree with Darwin that his lack of pace should be exploited. He's not a bad defender, but he's not quick enough to keep up with any of the back three of the Chiefs. Asaeli Tikoirotuma, Tim Nanai-Williams and Lelia Masaga is about as lethal attacking back three as you can get. What's worse is Adam Whitelock offers very little in attack (something I was very relieved about last week). I'm hoping the Crusaders win. Another New Zealand team in the final is ideal and I'm really hoping there will be three. Hoping for both the Chiefs and Crusaders to get a four try bonus point with the Chiefs finishing within 7 points. [/QUOTE]
