That's a strong Rebels starting XV. Not sure 13 is Kellaway's best position.
Rebels will be eyeing up a scalp.
I would expect a rugby team to be trying to win, so well yes.
McDonald's Blues record against the Force is pretty impressive, and the Blues have named a strong side here. I'm very confident.

Ili got injured, last week, so maybe this is their best alternative?

I assume you mean the Rebels.
My point is I think this Rebels team is a lot better than the rabble the Blues have smashed in recent seasons.

“A schoolboy error”. Bet there are plenty of schoolboys in Rugby at the moment shaking their heads in disagreement

Interesting that Robinson doesn't get a start when Sotutu is resting and Akira is still injured. Another sign that they are moving on from him (which makes sense as he's leaving at the end of the year)
All 3 loosies best position is openside
Looks like it's the openside memorial round for all teams.

They appear delusional or disingenuous.
Building up the viewing numbers from inciting both the doubters and the believers?

This has banana skin written all over it.
The Blues need to make a statement in this one with a thumping. Still can’t believe Barrett gets
the nod at 10. -
@Canes4life Lol every time the Blues play against less opposition it seems to have banana skin all over it. People were saying the same before the Force game.
And meh, as long as we win it doesn't really matter. Your beloved Canes barely got past them so why do we all of a sudden need a statement victory here?
We also won 15 straight last year with no title, so the moral of the story is, peak at the right time. Virtually everyone makes the finals, so as long as you get it right at the business end, these fixtures don't really matter too much.
