    Some chatter from the U20 game. Barrett has a broken hand

    Confirmation -

    The Blues medical team has confirmed that Beauden Barrett, who was forced out of the game at halftime, has suffered a hand fracture.

    The injury requires ongoing assessment before determining details of treatment or time required for recovery.

    We’ll update when we can

    Could possibly be bought in as cover then if Mullan and Eklund are still out.

    We could have a massive hooker crisis now.

    I think they'll just trust Pole and Gordon. Emergency cover for a game day injury could be Ofa. He was cover earlier in the season too

    How could you trust Pole? It's unfair on the bloke

    Get Moulds in ASAP

    @KiwiMurph

    I said that's what I think they'll do.

    Cotter keeps making the comment about the next cab off the rank. I'd be surprised if someone who hasn't been working with the squad slots in ahead of people have been with the squad.

    This week I think they should pick whoever throws the best at training. Even if that's Ofa

    Do we have any info on the other injuries?

    Dalton should be back this week and Perofeta is close apparently. BB will be out for a while and I guess we’ll find out if RR is a long term injury in the next couple of days

    What about Eklund, Sullivan, Funaki, McWhannell, Choat, Mullan etc?

    @Duluth Funaki opted not to go under the knife but try and rehab the shoulder - 8 week return time-frame if all goes well
    Think already mentioned but Sullivan likely out of SR with lisfranc injury

    Sometimes the jerseys at training are an indication of the 23..

    Dalton back as expected. Perofeta back as well.. do they ease him back off the bench? Is that Taele in a blue jersey too?

    Anyone heard what Riccitelli’s injury and prognosis is?

    I see his injury is listed as “chest”

    Riccitelli has injury around the collar bone hopefully only 2- 3, weeks and Zarn Sullivan is out of his moon boot, and Sotutu available against Crusaders.

    Good to see them put out a list with dates

    I hope the season is still alive in 4-6 weeks. At least there’s a bye during that time

    @Canes4life they have played both the Chiefs and the Blues although the Blues had few out
    Still I would rather be sitting where they are compared to where the Blues are sitting at the minute
    Massive game coming up for Blues this weekend against your boys
    Heard Kurt Eklund might be out again came back too soon against the Chiefs a couple of weeks back and re aggravated the groin strain he already have
    Hopefully the extra week off might do the trick
