Blues 2020

Yeah horrible, telling everyone what is obvious - Akira was not performing to his capabilities.

oh good, must be nearly super rugby season, we are having the same dumb conversation.

So we may as well all lay out the same shit we have always do.

I would have no problems with what Hansen said, if the then didn't immediately select a bunch of loose forwards with worse levels of performance, or very little performance, making his comments look a tad contrived. And that was over a couple of years.

And, given Fat Steve's selection of loose forwards this year, i would say he had a bit of a blindspot there too.

Big Karl has also been named on the bench for the Blues game today.

Apparently Duffie scored too 19-0

It wouldn't be preseason without a meaningless strong Blues performance

The entire Blues team changed at halftime and the Chiefs came back

The only injury concern for the Blues was first-five Otere Black, who damaged a rib. MacDonald expected him to be available for the round one encounter against the Chiefs at Eden Park on January 31.

Played wing for Auckland in 2019. Smaller than Ben.

[African Monkey]

@mikey07 A fair bit smaller.

[Steven Harris]

@Daffy-Jaffy really like the look of AJ Lam...
