I dunno about the Blues being stronger in the forwards. Tight 5 I'd say the Canes edge it.
If I combined the 5:
Numia
Riccitelli
Lomax
Tuipulotu
IWLLoosies are interesting. You could argue Blues are better man for man but it's pretty damn close.
Akira Ioane, Dalton Papali'i, Hoskins Sotutu
Brad Shields (c), Peter Lakai, Brayden IoseIf you factor in the loosie reserves then Canes have a big advantage there. Could be telling.
Darry over IWL for me Darry has come on strong this season much more physical and is holding his form.
IWL form has fallen away over the last few weeks.IWL is really competing with Patty T as TH lock/4. The match up between Darry and Delany is potentially for a place in AB squad, although there is a fair chance JR will make a Strange choice.
