    A paywalled article mentioned that Suafoa is injured this week

      @Kirwan said in Blues v Highlanders:

      @Crucial Perofeta is contracted to the Blues next year, and is being eased back from injury - obviously.

      Why risk him in a game like this? Getting him right for the finals.

      If he gets plenty of playing time.
      Does he really need easing back? Why not hand him the reins to start? He can always come off later. There always seems to be reasons and excuses for him not playing (ABs and Blues). Must be bloody frustrating for him when he is being seriously challenged for a RWC squad spot.
      I think the coaches have a bit of a horn for Plummer as well

        @Nogusta Is that for this week? Or is that what they're gonna go with in the finals?

        bluesrugbyteam Uncle Bryce has unfortunately been ruled out of tomorrow’s game which sees Stevie come into 10, Harry to 12, and RTS move to the bench

          I've only just seen the Blues team, why the fuck wouldn't you play Ioane at 8 instead of DP? AB coaches request to see if DP can cover all 3 loosies position from the bench?

                    Not even a penalty, IMO.

                        Something that is starting to bug me and becoming far too prominent - players tackling the tackler to stop them completing the tackle on a ball carrier (like what Robinson just did). Doesn't seem right.

                                  Highlanders will back their chances here.

                                  Blues look half asleep waiting for next week
