    I don't see the value in starting Ihaia - sounds like a thank you for his service.

    Good to see Faiane at 12 and Nanai starting.

      @KiwiMurph Would have also liked to have seen Trainor on the bench for Ranger.

        I would've liked Trainor to get a start here, just to get some experience and to see what he has to offer before next season. He has the most upside of any of our fullback options, and is the only fullback we have who can run, kick and pass well. It gives our back 3 play less predictability when you have that sort of fullback. He is more the style of fullback every other NZ team uses.

            We can only hope he reaches such heights. Jerry was a great player.

              Fixed to give it the proper Blues focus

                Really shitty scheduling for this game.

                I'm guessing it's an important weekend for Auckland club rugby, It definitely is down here in Christchurch.

                NZRU should object to games that clash with local club comps, clubs are struggling enough already.

                  @SammyC I think this weekend is the last round before club semifinals.

                        Surely it's a good time for the rugby clubs in Christchurch? You turn up for the game at 2:30 then you stay at the club, have a few beers and watch the Chiefs game and the Hurricanes game. It should work out well.

                            Blues get away with a forward pass.. Ref must've thought it went back from the hands

                              Nice forwards play Blues. Parsons try. Blues with a mountain of possession.

                                          Blues kicking too much.
