Boss move from Ioane. Anyone know how many tries Sexdoll scored for Leinster?
11, beatable in a season

Leinster are paying the wages, they're not weak like NZR and let him play where he wants - he'll be on the wing. They've got better midfielders than him

Hopefully they throw him in the 10 jersey for a nothing game.

Blues will want to start some good recruiting for next year, that is a hell of a lot of sting taken out of their backline.
@SBW1 i would’nt mind seeing a Lam/Taele midfield combination for the Blues before the season ends probably not gonna happen unless the Blues are out of playoff contention in the last 2 rounds

I find that comment funny when Reiko Ioane has provided no sting for the Blues in the last few seasons.
The Blues centre that should be in the ABs is AJ Lam. He’s been consistently very good for you blokes and his big frame would suit test level. Definitely prefer him over Havili as well.

Based on how we bullied Chch I doubt any of the others would fancy meeting Blues in playoffs.

Yep Bullied yourself to another Loss even bullied the Crusaders in the last scrum to lose the game.

Well going forward the hope would be Renata is the tighthead in that situation and not a greenhorn on debut
Reds up for the Blues will be very tough. No NZ team has won in Aus and Reds off a bye.

The Blues making the top six will require them to improve. I am seeing a lot of ignorance across the board from NZ fans, that the Blues/Canes/Highlanders are just going to magically turn things around, but I am yet to see any evidence that this is the case.
Blues the best chance of those three, might come down to whether they can win in Fiji.

I agree the lack of smarts in all our teams is really worrying, and is especially bad in those three

Yeah I think the Reds need to win as well,I still think the Blues will make it the Force,Reds and Waratahs will all take points off each other,One or maybe two will miss out.
I think The Canes are not totally gone either. -
Not an easy run in for the Blues. The Reds, Drua and Tahs away with the Force who are going well and MP who can beat anyone on their day.
I feel like we drop at least 2 in there. Previous seasons you'd back us to win all 5, but it ain't so easy this year.

Ahhh fuck true, I'll back us there then as the Tahs aren't great on the road (so far).
The Reds and Drua games are season defining for me.
Sorry @Chris not trying to drag you into a Blues chat here, but is it just me, or could next year be a proper rebuild season for us? This year certainly hasn't gone to plan, and looking at what our side could be looking like next season, I must say, there are a lot of holes in our squad. The 2020-2024 period has been a successful one for us, but that side is slowly splitting apart, and it might take a year or 2 at least to build our next generation up.
