    That article didn't mention Suafoa. I think it's probably a battle between him and Segner for the vacant spot

    I like the idea of Clark as a sub using his speed in the last 20. That probably requires Segner in the starting trio though

      Shek out until April and Ben Ake out for 8-10 weeks. Both
      rehabbing after shoulder surgeries.
      That likely explains picking 7 props in the squad plus 3 extras at training.

                    @Daffy-Jaffy grainy pic, but it does look like him and it looks like the tattoo he has on his right forearm

                            @Daffy-Jaffy Terrell Peita and Liam Hallam Eames have been called into the Blues training squad ,there’s a few players carrying injuries
                            I would imagine only onboard for preseason games

                              Beehre looks like he's put on some bulk too.

                              The battle for the third lock position after the AB pair will be tough. McWhannell was mostly good last year but his defence let him down at times.

                                @Duluth an attrional position (especially under Vern) and Darry and Patty Tuips do have a history of picking up injuries - there should be plenty of game time to go around.

                                    I presume there's a few injuries at lock

                                    Good to see Simpson involved

                                        Mason Tupaea hasn't played much at TH prop. I remember some time there for the Chiefs U20s but he has been a LH since school.
