Blues v Chiefs

[Crucial]

Fark! Was looking forward to seeing his comeback.

[Bovidae]

So Trask will definitely be the goal kicker. No pressure young fella.

[Tim]

Shaun Stevenson is still better than anyone the Blues can play at 15.

[JK]

Bugger re Dmac!

Taking the lads and they were keen to see him play too.

That's debatable. He is hot and cold.

All at the same time usually.

This game will count as one of the 2 games DMac needs to stand-down.

I doubt it. The stand down thing applies when they get a complete rest from a match week. No training, no planning attendance etc

Is he in that group given his injury enforced layoff?

yes. Has been confirmed

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean I expect it is about managing potential load in the coming year rather than resting from last year.

NZ TAB odds:

Blues
2.03

Chiefs
1.78

@DrivingMaul
Gone are the days of giants in the pack like Retallick, Bird and Taleni Seu - we are playing loose forwards in the second row and a 7 at 8. I know it's injury enforced but that will be one of our shorter sides in a while.

Against all the odds, I'm excited again. Taking my lad tonight, will be a good night out no matter what.

From last year - we haven't beaten the Chiefs since 20 farking 11. It's about time

@nzzp Why are you posting from 2018? Have you had a stroke?

The Blues won their last game against the Chiefs.

aw did we? I genuinely didn't remember that, just had memories of being carved up by DMac at Eden Park last year.

Edit: Goddaamn! 18 May we won against them after losing 33-29 earlier in the season. THE STREAK IS OVER

@nzzp Jesus mate, better try to draw a clock (dementia test). DMac blew out his knee in Hamilton a month earlier. He didn't play on Eden Park.
