    Just heard through a contact Sam Nock will be the starting halfback for the Canes game on Friday night..has not been re signed as yet, but sounds like he is playing for his future..

    Pulu apparently does not have a contract..but it’s seems its not out of the realms that the Blues may resign him because he could be staying in NZ..
    The plot thickens ...either that or they have lost the plot.

      @KiwiMurph ,could be a change at first five as well and Robinson might be rested or off the bench..that’s about all I could gleem,
      Makes a bit of sense as they will require some pace to combat the Canes loosies ..

              @KiwiMurph Tele'as ban is up so may come on to the bench or start? Duffie probably gets another run given Caleb Clarke didn't look too healthy at the end of the game.

                @Nogusta I'd start Tele'a on the right but I can picture them going 11-Rieko 15-Nanai 14-Duffie 23-Tele'a

                  Just aslong as Nonu starts against Laumape.

                    @KiwiMurph Nock and Plummer to start? Papalii to start as well with Robinson out. Jed Brown will probably take the reserve loosie spot but would love to see Sotutu get a run. Maybe a shake up in the front row given Saturday nights events? Lindenmuth has been playing for a few weeks now so perhaps he'll be given a crack with Mafileo still out injured.

                      No point thinking about it too much @Rocky-Rockbottom, the Canes are going to ease in on Friday night.

                      Got my name and avatar locked and loaded already. πŸ˜†

                      P.s the game will be well over by the weekend. πŸ˜‰

                        @Nogusta Robinson out? Or just being given a spell?

                          @taniwharugby not too sure...an earlier post suggested he was being rested or off the bench maybe. I reckon if hes fit he plays! If he's not named he'll be injured.

                            If Robinson is on the bench. I'd love to see him as the lock cover on the bench and Sotutu as the backrower on the bench.

                            With two openside options(Papali'i and Gibson) in the starting line-up, we don't need Jed Brown. We're better served with a point of difference off the bench, and Sotutu would provide that.

                                Well that has a worse selectorial decision than lock at the Crusaders.

                                Two time title winning captain and AB great excluded for Xavier Rush.

                                Edit: Actually his brother should probably be there at lock too.
