Apparently Duffie scored too 19-0

It wouldn't be preseason without a meaningless strong Blues performance

The entire Blues team changed at halftime and the Chiefs came back

The only injury concern for the Blues was first-five Otere Black, who damaged a rib. MacDonald expected him to be available for the round one encounter against the Chiefs at Eden Park on January 31.

There's no rush...

@African-Monkey Ta is he the same size or smaller? Only asking because I’ve never heard of him before

Played wing for Auckland in 2019. Smaller than Ben.

[African Monkey]

@mikey07 A fair bit smaller.

[Daffy Jaffy]

@mikey07 Ben is 194cm, 105kgs and 28 y/o.
AJ is 188cm, 100kgs and 21 y/o.

[Steven Harris]

@Daffy-Jaffy really like the look of AJ Lam...

[Tim]

Any reason why Finlay Christie didn't play? Injured?

Ruru played the majority of the game for the Blues, as did TTT for the Chiefs. You had a typical pre-season situation where the Chiefs' 3rd halfback (Carter) ended the game on the wing.

Barrett has been working with Dave Alred who was Wilkinson’s kicking coach
