      In saying that Moli would likely be behind Hames and Laulala

        Strange. I want the Blues to win. I think it's more important for NZ rugby.

            But the injuries have effected the Chiefs' bench depth, particularly at prop and the outside backs.

            Moli and Graham/Ross off the bench is better than what will happen on Fri night.

            TNW would likely be the right winger or fullback.

              Could be rain around by the looks - that might even it up somewhat.

                The mind of a child has a special affinity with the cognitive dissonance of your average Blues player.

                why you gotta insult his kids like that? #harsh

                  I will retract my insult IF the child can play first five. For the Blues. This weekend.

                  He likes to run with the ball, is flaky on defense, doesn't really have a boot on him to speak of, and is erratic and very unpredictable as to what he will do next.

                  So a perfect fit.

                    Five year olds are pretty angry, yours far more than most

                      I need an uppercut, because I'm actually confident about tonight.

                      Weather looking good so far. Plenty of clouds about today, but not much rain has come with it.

                          THIS IS OUR YEAR.

                          I initially mis typed to 'this is your year'. Guess Freud had something right after all 🙂 Not feeling confident, we Blues can find a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory... particularly against the bloody Chiefs.

                            In some late changes for the already injury-ravaged Chiefs, Brodie Retallick has withdrawn from the Chiefs starting XV with an eye injury sustained at training, while fullback Shaun Stevenson has suffered what appears to be an ankle injury in the pre-match warm up. As a result, Mitchell Brown will start at lock, while it appears that Stevenson will be replaced by Damian McKenzie, with Tiaan Falcon coming off the bench to 10.

                                McKenzie at 15 with Falcon at 10 might actually be an improvement.

                                  If the Blues find a way to lose this match it will be a monumental choke.

                                      plenty of lingering scars for Blues fans...

                                      am tempted to increase my tipping margin for the Blues.

                                        Blues will really be targeting the scrum now.
