    … or put the mockers on their faux-championship winning season

    All I know it won’t be down to bad coaching if the Blues players stuff up the un-losable season πŸ˜‡

    Nope πŸ™‚ We finally have good coaches, Coventry has the forwards humming, and much fitter which is making a hude difference on defence. And Leon is making far better selections than the past two coaches.

    @Kirwan spot on. And consistent selections too, clarity about what the team needs from different positions

    Josh Ioane ruled out of this game. NMS still not available either. Ngane Punivai cleared to play.

    You're not... you're not having a go at the ref are you?

    You....you picked up on that? I see you got your serious mask on quicksmart once required.

    Williams was the ref in round 1 wasn't he? Thought he was good but had to laugh when I messaged the old man and all he did was come back complaining about the ref and the highlanders terrible win percentage under him.

    Hope we go with our strongest available side for every fixture personally. No need to make changes at this stage.

    should be fun up front, but surely the class difference in the big numbers gets the Blues home
