    @Gunner
    Blake Gibson and Dillon Hunt too. Where will Choat go?

    @mofitzy_ Choat (1.90m) can play 6 as well as 7, so he'd be a good replacement for Tucker in the Blues squad. Robinson and Gibson will probably get injured, so he might well get game time.

    Good pick up for most teams though.

      @Chris Certainly in the forwards. 9, 10, and 15 still a concern.

      @Tim hoping the improvement Nock has shown this year both at the Blues and for us is a sign he is finally getting there, so while been a long slog, hoping the perseverance with him will now start to pay off.

      If we had seen more of Cooper at 10/15 for us, he may have been an option as he looks like one of those players who could make the step up.

        They signed Billy Harmon.

              @Stargazer LOL, slip of the mind there! Meant Laulala.

              I've had to stop drinking coffee for a while, so we'll blame that.

                                  It used to be the Crusaders that hoarded AB props, then it was the Chiefs for a few years, and now it's the Blues. Not a criticism, just stating a fact.

                                          I missed the Laulala move this week. So the Blues have become a Super version of the Ta$man Invitational XV under Leon ... you Blues fans should start worrying, TJ is going to be fluffing you like crazy now.
