    Luke Romano's new house in Auckland is next door to a KFC.

    And a maccas, and a dominoes...

    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?

    Comments from Tom Robinson on Romano:

    “I call him the Tyson Fury. He’s not a chiselled athlete but when he gets in there, man, he just goes and goes."

    Caleb Clarke looked much more like the 2020 version than the 2021 version.

    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 Yeah funny how there was no mention of it when he played for the Crusaders/Canterbury.

    @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

    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.

    Mitch Hunt? No chance.

    I may not be giving Foster enough credit. Perhaps he moonlights as a magician, because there’s all those players and he magically finds room for Ennor and Bridge. Slight of hand, illusion or the old disappearing player act. Encore encore.
