Yes, his name is Fergus Burke

Kiwias,

Much as I'd love to finally meet up, my movements are currently restricted by this bloody electronic ankle bracelet.

(Kidding. Just a bit too busy right now - hope you fellas have a great time!)

That's a shame

HB with a comfortable lead over Stags 33 - 7, with a bonus point, and only 7mins to play.

Weber and Fakatava a decent halfback pairing

Very important match for both.

Canty treating it as such, taking the three points on their first two penalty chances

Posted: **Sat Sep 23, 2023 4:56 am**

Canty really are doing the basics very well.

Noah Hotham is not looking too shabby

Posted: **Sat Sep 23, 2023 5:30 am**

This surprisingly one side based on form of recent weeks.

Bit too much kicking for my liking but we are in for a super last 15

Cant kicking has been superb and largely responsible for their position.

Posted: **Sat Sep 23, 2023 6:18 am**

Well, that has to be worst and stupidest kick of the season

Posted: **Sat Sep 23, 2023 6:21 am**

Good game.

Posted: **Sat Sep 23, 2023 6:22 am**

Brilliant match and all looking good for the Crusaders next season

Posted: **Sat Sep 23, 2023 6:22 am**

Tight in the end. Had Cant by 1.

Makos left themselves too much to do. Cant's kicking in a different league to them plus they murdered Makos at breakdown.

Great watch.

Got to admit that Burke in particular has real length on his kicking

Christie and Harmon did really well at the breakdown and Burke has a massive boot

He's playing very well. He and Harford are quite the one-two punch for Canterbury.

I like Burke's poise. He has power, speed and a great kicking game but above all it's the poise he has that impresses me... he has time to make good decisions. It's a sign of a very good player. I hope to see him advance and improve with a possible AB jersey in his future.

Yep, hope he gets a Supe contract for next year.

A natural fit for the Crusaders as back up for Burke. I also hope Hotham gets a contract with the Crusaders.

Posted: **Sat Sep 23, 2023 6:55 am**

Hotham was good value for the Saders this year, in tandem with Drummond, so he should be right. That was a great break by him tonight. Our young depth at halfback's looking very good. Fakatava's done well to get back from two serious injuries. His best is yet to come.

Posted: **Sat Sep 23, 2023 6:58 am**

Next up, Taranaki hosting Auckland.

Two more closely matched teams, with both on 5 wins and 3 losses.

Posted: **Sat Sep 23, 2023 7:24 am**

Naki leading 5 - 3 but Orks are starting to wind up a bit

Just some random stuff when she thought she was off air. I think she's a very good commentator. Nisbo's successor?

She’s good value. I couldn’t really hear it listening on the laptop but they were laughing and ribbing each other with something about ‘last night’.

We share a love of Sullivan and a hate of coriander. What more can I say?
