Auckland vs. North Harbour - The Battle of the Bridge
-
They probably need two, and I’d be tempted to take Evans as a potential bench option. Can do the Ardie role covering 7/8 if required (although Papalii gets the bench spot in my team).
-
@kiwimurph No workrate though......
-
@kiwimurph yep, a specialist 7 is the one they are looking to replace, why replace him with a utility?
-
@kiwimurph Because he is a better 7 than Hunt when he plays in that position.
-
@canes4life Forget Hunt, we want Papali'i.
-
Papalii is Hansen’s man..I would not be looking at anyone else if you are looking for a specialist 7
-
@steven-harris I agree with Papali'i over Hunt. Just whether Hansen thinks he is too young or not.
-
You give a guy rap,and then he comes up with a rookie error
-
@steven-harris Hence why I think the guy is too young. He could be a non playing apprentice, they did that with Ardie and it has paid dividends.
-
Has Olmstead been signed by the Blues..?,he may not be an Akira Ioane but the man just keeps working..!
-
@steven-harris he'd be my starting Blues 6.
-
@kiwimurph deserved the card,standing suspiciously offside and knocks the ball out of the halfbacks hands.i was reaching for card out of my pocket..!
-
Can anyone give me the likely Blues 1st 15 for next year??
-
I would pick Rayasi ahead of Melani Nanai in Blues starting XV every day of the week and twice on Sunday ..
I find Nanai for all his brilliant footwork and speed makes far too many errors and poor decisions,has no kicking game to match
I would gladly trade the 2 in the Blues squad if ever possible -
@canes4life I would start with Black given his experience,but your next cab off the rack is Plummer,after watching the cart horse Collins trotting around yesterday,Is Perofeta a better fullback option..?
-
I would go 9. Pulu/Nock 10. Black 11. Ioane 12. Williams 13. Manu 14. Rayasi/Duffie 15. Stevenson??
-
@canes4life I think Stephenson has another season with the chiefs..
