      Have heard Hoskins Sotutu will be back for the Crusaders game.
      Thought Tony Lamborn had a handy game,so altogether the Blues loose forwards have covered themselves in glory.Hope Dalton Papali’i’ ‘s injury doesn’t curtail his great season.Akira back to six I suppose.

          to be fair big Karl was laying on his side and he would be all of a good metre wide

              That is actually an amazing comment, but yeah. Akira 6, Dalton 7, Hoskins 8? Robinson bench.

              How the fuck did the Blues actually get depth again? There are still good loosies beyond that list as well.

                  Robinson goes pretty well at lock as well, so could get all four on the pitch if you wanted to. The best thing is you can rotate the players and cover injury.

                  We have three players that can cover seven, with not a huge drop off between them. Two great eights, Dalton covers there too. And Robinson, Akira and Dalton covering six, with other squad options there too.

                  Loose forwards look great. As does prop and lock.

                    Yep. Great bench cover for injury and as a replacement. We do have a strong pack for once.

                    Actually the whole team look solid. Still not convinced about half back, but getting better.

                      btw, rare to see such a difference in size of two pro kiwi teams. Blues are big boys

                        Christie was good around the park at the weekend, ran good lines, made some good decisions, worked hard on D. I think he got player of the round from some dodgy media outlet.

                        Pass seems OK? I'm not an expert though.

                        Nock is starting to realise potential, and hopefully another year with Leon will help him keep improving.

                          @nzzp Just me that is instantly irritated at the sight of Christie then? Definitely triggers me.

                          That feeling of wanting to throw up when he scores against your team....

                              @nzzp yeah see Tito was a canes hero and Robinson I like. Just Christie making me want to throw the remote when he tackles Smith without the ball.
