[george33]

@African-Monkey think he is 3 month contract should take him to the final

[ACT Crusader]

If the Blues can’t….

[Duluth]

The photos of training today showed Tuipulotu taking part

@george33 is he going to play this weekend?

[nzzp]

@Duluth someone on the radio last night was saying he was hitting people hard in training. So quite possibly he's playing

Get on them then , at $1.50!

You just know they get up for these games - this is a real acid test; if they can't execute this weekend, when will they? Will a few players back from injury really make that much of a difference?

Blues went through this with Pat Lam where we dropped 5 on the bounce - injuries, brain explosions and refs calls - but ultimately that was the start of the slide. Up to that point the poor operational and governance hadn't really smashed the onfield stuff, but it really did from there.

@Duluth he sent me a smiley face, so I'm guessing without him confirming it that he will be in the 23, Well find out at 4pm,
