He looked leaner post-training in hot Auckland conditions on Thursday and confirmed he had shed around 3kg from his 2019 weight.
"I'm the lightest I've been in a while," he said, confirming he'd gone from 105-106kg down to 102-103. "I thought this time round I'd try something a bit different and see how I feel a bit lighter. The fitness is up there, the speed is up there. I feel really good.

Just watching The Crowd Goes Wild piece about Riko.s 50th game and I think I saw Jordan Trainor in training gear chatting with Joe Marchant.

@Crucial maybe Akira needs to move franchise and get away from his comfort zone so to speak.

Just 90 minutes down the highway and we can move Sam Cane back to 7.
Good idea.

@gt12 any NZ team would be a better option right now.

Perhaps wait and see how he goes this year before saying this.

I think every Blues fan complained about the over playing of Akira (every game.. every minute..) and the under playing of Sotutu and even Papali'i
From MacDonalds comments it sounds like he realises that was an huge error last year.

@Machpants he wasn't in the All Blacks was he?

You're a bit behind here @Canes4life
7 players other than the RWC squad are under the rest protocols. We have been trying to working out who they are.

Yep, excellent point.
If they use them right and don’t have any big injuries, I think this loose forward roster could be really huge this year.
They have good players in every position even with a bit of rotation, especially if they bring Robinson back into that mix.
They’re young too; that’s it, it’s your decade!

Maybe they are fully resting him for ABs SR rest protocols?
Nah its because Akira is a fat fukka and not fit
