Blues v Chiefs

Media release:
https://chiefs.co.nz/news-item/new-faces-to-feature-in-gallagher-chiefs-season-opener/
With our Test players only rejoining us late in the pre-season, we’ve opted to bring the majority of them back via the bench. That rewards those who have worked relentlessly over the last few months, and allows us to inject some experience later into the game. It’s a long season and a particularly tough opening six weeks leading into our bye. We will need to be smart around how we manage our squad and our selections this week are a reflection of that”.
Boshier over Brown astounds me.

That was 150 words to say 'we've given this one away'

@Duluth From what I saw of him at for blues u20 he is quite small but very mobile with a high work rate. Him and his brother both loved to run with the ball and they defended superbly. He did some good things around the field in the final preseason game were he played 2 qtrs after Mullens went off. Vaai and Lord will no doubt put his throw under a lot of pressure when he comes on. Expect Ricky to play allot of minutes.

Any opinions on Nathaniel Pole? I don't think he's played any NPC yet?
Was he injured during NPC? Otherwise it's frustrating if he didn't play considering Auckland
gifted minutes to a journeyman no hoper like Apisaicould have used him (woops forgot Apisai went to Wellington) -
