@MN5 surely Parsons at 2?

Edit: and Lachie Munro on the wing?

Perfect! You could be picking an all time XV like the one that started this thread

Funny that Mils appears in both the Blues All Time All Blacks XV and the Chiefs version.

Would only be a squaddie at best for the Crusaders XV

Obvious troll is obvious

My team :

Dowd
Fitzpatrick
Brown
Brooke
Williams
Kaino
Jones
Brooke
Tonu'u
Spencer
Lomu
Stensness
Clarke
Howlett
Muliaina

Lomu played on the left wing so he can't be in the same team with Rieko Ioane.

[KiwiMurph]

@cgrant well technically they could be in the same team as Rieko has played right wing for Blues.

[cgrant]

He has also played centre and 2nd 5/8. However, one must consider him as a left wing where he usually plays. Vidiri comes second behind Howlett for the 14 jersey IMO.

[Tim]

Vidiri
Lomu
Sotutu
Caucaunibuca
Rokocoko
Gear
Howlett
Muliaina
Toeava
Ranger
Piutau
Ioane

Been some good wings over the years.

Who would believe you'd miss your opportunity to bring up James Kerr.

[Dice]

@Tim Brian Lima is another one. He was quite good for us.

Our winger depth hasn't been that great for several years now, but there use to be a point where I bet a lot of Super teams would've loved to of had our back-up wingers as their starters.

someone was saying on the radio Jones never played 7 for the Blues...so need to choose, Kaino or Jones at 6...

would that mean Mark Carter or Daniel Braid take 7

your thoughts @Nepia

Braid any day if the week ... but fuck it, just pick MJ, he was in the Blues, he’s the best 7 to play the game ...

Rieko isn't the best 11 the Blues have had, but would people really have Roks over him in the pecking order for 11s for the Blues?

Despite the short career, I think Rieko has already had more dominate games for the Blues than Roks has had. Rieko is also already close to passing Roks for tries for the Blues and he's played about half the games.

I love the Rocketman, but he really saved his best stuff for the black jersey. It kind of correlates with his youtube highlights, which have a lot of AB stuff, but not much Blues stuff.

Also does Jonah walk into the team on the back of just the one ( admittedly amazing ) season bearing in mind he was out for the count in 97 then moved to the Chiefs.

Jonah played more than one season for the Blues - he also played for the Blues in 98 when they made the Final. He didn't play for the Chiefs until 99.
