    Alex Hodgman played well for the Blues, active around the paddock, solid at scrum time, worked hard at the breakdown with some nice touches with the ball.

          He could be by the end of SR, but he's not yet

          BTW I don't know what a thrashwank is nor whom you consider "NZs best luxury player"? WTF is a luxury player?

            I did wonder if maybe he discovered Wendy's, or some shit that isn't in ChCh, but is in Auckland.
            Is there a Wendy's in ChCh?
            I don't care. Luke got fat, and WTF?

                    Didn't see the game tonight so no idea what he looks like now, but Luke was carrying extra weight in Chch the last couple of years.

                      I was coming here to post exactly that comment.

                      The 7s last year was a strategic error - he should have tried to hold his AB spot.

                      Another problem is that someone like Rayasi will eventually also be too hard to ignore, if he can cut out the silly errors.

                      If Brudge gets selected in the ABs ahead of Leicester, Clarke, or even Rayasi, I going to lose my shit.

                      Watching the highlights of Inga and Viduri in the last few days has really hammered home that we need more weapons on the flanks.

                          Finlay definitely has kicked on from last years chances. On this weekends form I would take him over Fakatava.

                          RIoane looking in good nick.

                          Sotutu busy but totally outshone by Ardie.

                            Yeah, I find it weird people are commenting on Romano's fatness, he's clearly been hitting the pasta and pizza for years now. Put him in a Blue jersey and everyone notices.

                                  @nepia funny. He looks like he is wearing some rib protection but maybe I’m being kind. Are we really that short of locks that he is starting for the Blues?

                                    It’s a specific situation. The Blues lost 3 locks in the off season (including the 2 most experienced)
                                    Selecting an experienced, off contract, lock was important

                                    I think he’ll drift out of the 23 during the season. When he is in the 23 he needs to start so he plays until he runs out of puff

                                      @kruse Yea there is Wendy's in Chch, and he's been that fat for about 6 years now lol.

                                      Yeah, I find it weird people are commenting on Romano's fatness, he's clearly been hitting the pasta and pizza for years now. Put him in a Blue jersey and everyone notices.

                                      He’s been fat for ages. Basically since he first made the ABs

                                        Mitch Hunt might be a smokey to make the squad this year.

                                          any chance we can find someone who can kick the ball more than 25 metres?

                                          LF seems an absolute certainty doesn't he? If the ABs are wedded to a gameplan of beating defense with individual brilliance, we better start picking guys who are actually dynamic. Can't think of many more than him at the moment.

                                          The back 3 is ridiculous at the moment. How do we fit all of Jordie, Jordan, Reiko, Reece, Clarke, and LF all in? No wonder we are desperate to make one in to a 13.
