        Otere seems happier than he should with Beauden's return.

          Anyone know if Chocobares is in the frame for next year? He joined Toulouse as a medical replacement this season.

            Am wondering if Dillon Hunt will be available for the NPC, or even next year?

              From the NZH. The Blues CEO says they have not approached Jordie this time

              "We'll leave that one," Hore told the Herald when quizzed if they'll be approaching Barrett.
              
              "We've tried and tested with Jordie before. But Zarn [Sullivan] has come good for us. So it's a matter of next year we've got, Roger Tuivasa-Sheck [Warriors captain who will switch codes next year], Beaudy, and we've got a couple of these older boys standing up around them now, and then we'll go from there.
              
              "We've really got to focus on keeping what we've got and building some real depth. Leon [coach Macdonald] has made a great start to that, encouraging some young boys to join us.

                      So it looks like we'll see that ugly green NIB logo on the Blues jersey for three more years.

                          I missed this from a club rugby report a couple of weeks ago. Evans must at least be on the Blues radar for next seasons midfield?

                          "But after losing Corey Evans to a Blues call-up, Tokahere knew his side were in for a challenging afternoon against a University team"
