@Bovidae said in Blues 2020:
Rieko is a midfielder now?
Clearly spent too much time listening to Tana
Seriously, though, whatevrer works for the player. If he thinks his career is at 13, who am I to disagree. Tana did it and nailed it. It still feels a bit weird, mind

@nzzp this could revive Rieko’s career and give him a new focus having to learn a position that if he gets right..anything’s possible

On Breakdown it seemed to be player led.
I'm amused; last season we had five 12s. Now we have one. FFS, Leon, I hope you know what you're doing. Benefit of doubt at this stage...

Was Kurt Eklund on the radar?
He was pretty good for BOP after a very serious injury. I was hoping he made it

Yeah, I'm happy he's back just surprised didn't know he was being looked at. Hope he comes back to Auckland too.

Thoughts. Picking 6 locks might mean C/T getting time at 6? Rapt for the hard working Tucker. In regards to only 1 recognised 12 picked, they may push Plummer out to cover there with plenty of 10 cover. He has the right game to play there. Page is a good player who is hopefully over his injuries but i feel for Trainor. Some of us might be judging Lamborn a bit early, he was really good for the U.S at the W.C. seems to have bulked up somewhat. Happy with the hookers, i thought they might stay with Apisai. I know nothing about Heighton, have never seen him play but he was training with them all last season so he must be a prospect.
-
@Nogusta I have just been messaged from a contact..the Blues see Heighton as a number 9 moving forward
@Steven-Harris Interesting that they rate him ahead of Lewis Gjaltema.

Rieko played his schoolboy rugby at 13. IIRC, he didn't play wing until he made the ABs.

Big questions over midfield and fullback.
Then the usual issues at halfback and centre.
Tony Lamborn is a disappointing signing IMO.

That's just weird, what have the Blues picked him up as? He's an ex 7 who became a short 6. I don't want him anywhere near the Magpies (and apparently neither does @Stargazer ) which should give some pointers to how he's rated.
I think it's premature for Ioane to switch to centre.
