Blues 2020

Absolutely fine to post here, it gives us the opportunity to point out to the “journalists” that trawl through threads here for story ideas how far their profession has sunk.

Story consists of:

Young bloke has home near other people.
Young guy had some mates around and they were still up at 2am.
There was beer and two guys were seen carrying two beers.
Some swears were heard.
Random woman was able to enter Reiko Ioane's house.

Only really care about the fifth point. For his own security and privacy, Reiko Ioane should keep his front door locked in the future.

Of course.

Blues life.

Every fucking year.

Can't wait til the same halves are rolled out for round 2.

Stargazer

@Chris So Rieko out for about 5-6 weeks? Is that how long a fractured hand takes to heal?

Ray Niuia out for the season. Another hooker. Who'll they call up as replacement will be interesting. Maybe finally a call-up for Kereru-Symes? Surely, we must by now have run out of old fellas and can the NZU20 hooker finally get a foot in the SR door?

Duluth

Hopefully we are allowed to pick Caleb Clarke for a few weeks

Duluth

@Stargazer

The next option is probably Luteru Tolai

KiwiMurph

Think its much more likely to be AJ Lam time for the Blues.

Ioane and his friends were also reportedly seen sculling alcohol and wielding two beers at once, one for sipping and one for sculling, another neighbour said.

those evil motherfuckers!!! hanging is too good for them

Was it from a tackle around the thighs?? The Waikato chap should be banned if so

taniwharugby

@Stargazer all depends, hands are complicated things...assume the hand injury was done during the game or training...

taniwharugby

@Hooroo looking at the picture, the Waikato guy kicked him

A lot of bones in the hand @taniwharugby is right those injuries can be complicated
Ray Niuia is a loss too not many decent hookers left
You would think Kereru-Symes is next of the rank he’s was unlucky to not land a contract

Rieko is screwed now with only one good hand.

@mariner4life scrumpy hands!

Hooroo

Well at least they have April to look forward to when BB is back...….

…. only 7 games to play including the tour leg.

In saying that, this could be the things that unites them and makes them fight.

They really need the 2016, after the Wales tests, version of BB to come back ....

He's a good option. I would prefer Clarke though

It'll be interesting to see if 7's takes precedence..

KiwiMurph

@Duluth 7s will take precedence. They play their next tournament at the end of this month and he's been building into the 7s for the last few months culminating in his first tournament last weekend in Sydney.
