    Robinson has been a great servant for the Blues.

    He isn't so good that he should be selected over players sticking around in close call selections.

    On rugby, Tom deserves to be playing. On your logic, I expect that RTS will have played his last game for the Blues then? The difference being he was never good enough to begin with….

    I'm not a Darry fan but Suafoa, Tucker and Choat are all playing well this year. I suspect as RTS is an AB he'll be given some further opportunities. If it was up to me - yes RTS would have played his last game for the Blues - I've been out on him for quite a while anyway.

    However neither RTS nor Robinson are playing in this game so let's see how the locks, loosies and midfielders go.

    I will be very surprised if RTS is an All Black this year. Selected as a project last year, not good enough for even the Blues. They should release him to the Warriors now.

      @kev I agree and it wouldn't be too much of a surprise if they are not working towards doing this behind the scenes.

          Awesome, haka and cibi at the same time! That will fire the crowd up even more!

          Edit: is it a cibi or bole?

            I always wondered why they weren't done at the same time.

            Is it traditional protocol to take turns in performing the haka etc?

                      This is the Telea, Zarn and Rieko show so far.

                      Things might improve if the Blues lineout starts to function.

                        Just tuned in, I swear I am sober - but did I see BB actually take the ball in to contact before that try?

                          Lots of stoppages and scrums. Not a bad thing for the Blues considering the weather

                                Smart of Drua to target Darry on the restarts - he is such a weak link

                                  The most overrated player on the Blues. They were better off with Tucker and Suafoa earlier in the season

                                      Great efforts by Plummer and then Suafoa. Drua's punishing defence falling off now.

                                          Ikanivere is having a mare with his terrible line-out throws. Resulting in a Blue try, this time.
