Barrett ahead of Cruden? Carter near the end?

[QUOTE="donmcdazzle, post: 598289, member: 44093"] Haha you are nothing if not consistent. Donald cost us that game Larksea and you are the only person who doesn't think so. Forget what other players could/should/would have done, Donald made a massive error in a crucial moment that cost us the game, simple as that. Valid point on the Hurricanes being a team and he is only one player etc but you ignored the part where he couldn't string together consistent performances and got dropped for a complete journeyman. Also, the Hurricanes have a lot of talented players. The backline is star studded other than Bateman. The forward pack lack a good lock and 7 but the rest have been chewing up everyone in ITM cup so isn't like he is playing with a bunch of muppets. Comparing where players were 2.5 years ago is a bit pointless, Slade was ahead of all of them 2.5 years ago and we all saw how that played out. At the moment, Cruden is better. Barrett might become the next Carter, and for the ABs sake I hope he does. He could also get a career ending injury in the next game he plays so it is best not to go too over the top with hyperbole until it actually happens. [/QUOTE]
