      @daffy-jaffy he's pretty funny. Doing an engineering degree I undersatnd - which is awesome to see. Shows how some time out of the pro game can actually be a good thing (although I wouldn't wish injury on anyone)

          Hamish Dalzell is still training with the Blues. Wonder if he will replace GCT?

            Blues standout Gerard Cowley-Tuioti is heading overseas at the end of this campaign – lock is a position where Moana Pasifika may even have to look at non-Pasifika players – and Stuff understands that Blues midfielder TJ Faiane is also likely to shift to the Top League in Japan.

            Losing those two will be a real blow to depth. We might have a hole at 12.

              @tim Not sure he's the answer, considering we haven't seen him play this year, but Danny Toala may be looking for a new franchise. Very green at SR level compared to TJ, of course.

                One of the young locks needs to step up to fill the gap

                As for TJ, I've always suspected RTS was signed as a 12

                  @duluth Hadn't thought about RTS as a 12. I was afraid he'd keep Zarn out of that 15 jersey.

                    Plummer is more likely to be a 2nd 5 with BB's return.

                        Tamati Tua could be a 12 option too - he looked very good at 12 for Northland prior to injury. Hopefully he's back soon.

                          @tim I would look seriously at Meihana Grindlay and Cory Evans for the midfield. They both impressed for this years Blues Colts. Hopefully they will get some NPC game time. I know Grindlay trained with the Blues for a time this season.

                            @kiwimurph he has been running water for Kamo, and was part of the trial coaching teams on the weekend, but the main part is he looks in good shape, so hopefully will get some game time end of club season to hit the NPC field running, where I hope he features with Gregory to form our mid-field.
