    Moobs are looking good

    He's lived in Christchurch too long, developed some hills for a bit of variety.

    That's good news for the Blues and NZ rugby. He should be in the conversation for getting an invite as an assistant for the big job.

    Have the Blues made a decision on their captain yet?

    @nogusta Blues organised a press conference today with Leon MacDonald and RTS - that's where it's come from.

    Rugby generally does an awful job of promoting it's stars - the more the better imo.

    Have to say even as a Canes' man I am so looking forward to seeing how this Blues backline goes this year. I think Christie/Nock, BB/Perofata, he who can't be named for Nogusta's sake/Plummer,Reiko Ioane have the makings of some good combos from 9-13. Thorw in young Zarn Sullivan at 15 and the chouce of wings they got, could be a pretty exciting team to watch.

    Not that i've seen.

    I'd expect Tom Robinson.

    Isn't there a conflict of interest with Tana's nephews?
    Tane here, ok RTS, no problem helping you, my advice is to just go ask Rangi how to play in the midfield..

    Used to love having to get word of the day into mission briefs!

    tangent: Despite yelling 'fuck yeah' in their briefs, the yanks had very funny PC rules about what words they could use. For ex 'craniums up' cos you can't say head - it probably goes back to their toilet/restroom phobia. Good value watching the cringe in your briefing 'Alright, today we will be penetrating the box at 0600..."

    @machpants don't think it's an issue.

    His step is very late and he stays square, perfect for close quarters stuff.

    I think his ball carrying will be so good that he will be able to rely on it until he gets the hang of playing 12. Much like sonny who I would say never actually developed the latter to an elite level.
