    No Karpik in the travelling squad. I would expect Kautai to be the reserve TH prop and Boshier to start in place of Cane.

    Did the Farce fullback(?) get cited for his late shoulder charge on Moala (Duffie's try)?

    Robertson was optimistic about an ankle injury to centre Ryan Crotty, with the All Blacks centre expected to only miss two or three weeks.
    

    I wonder whether that includes the bye week or not.

    BREAKING: @BluesRugbyTeam first-five Ihaia West will miss the next four weeks of the #SuperRugby season with an ankle injury

    I wonder if Bryn Gatland will be brought in cos I think Perofeta is also injured.

    At least he played well for the A team on the weekend.

    They would need to put another need a 3rd guy with the squad too just in case there's another injury.
    Who the hell would that be?? When the Crusaders had injuries at 10 they had Gatland training with their squad..

    @Tim Tiaan Falcon, but I want the Blues to keep their mitts off him. Let them take Gatland, who has a bit more Mitre 10 Cup experience anyway and comes from Blues catchment.

    @Stargazer I think Tim was referring to the Blues U20 squad.

    Wiseguy Faiane was on the Blues U20 bench a couple of weeks ago when they played Argentina, Perofeta started.

    @KiwiMurph Oh, did he? Against the Chiefs U20s, Otumaka Mausia played at 10 for the Blues U20s. Against the Canes U20s, it was indeed Wiseguy Faiane.

    Gatland played first-five for the Blues Dev team against both the Chiefs Dev team and the Canes Dev team.

    Johan Ackermann leaving the Lions to take up a new position as the head coach at Gloucester is a big blow. He's easily the best Super coach in SA.

    Bryn Gatland, who joined the Crusaders last month as temporary injury cover, has been called into the Blues squad.

    Just making a suggestion, would the mods consider splitting this thread in terms of moving the discussion around the future of Super Rugby into it's on thread and keep this thread more for specific current season player/team news around injuries, squad updates, etc?

    I just trawled through about 5 pages of discussion around the future of the Super Rugby comp and all the speculation around it which makes for good reading, but not if you are looking for an update on a specific player's injury or some such.

    Just a suggestion.

    Cheers

    SBW will need to be killing it to usurp Crotty and ALB .
