Blues 2024

I think there has been a small error from the Blues media people though. When this was announced they should've had Cotter, Tuipulotu & Papali'i available to answer questions
That might've delayed the announcement (not sure if Dalton is training again?)
The media person should've predicted the dumb 'Dalton dropped' headlines. The rugby media is bored at this time of the year and will over hype anything

Who can spark the fire? The big questions for the Blues to answer in 2024
The 2024 season beckons as an opportunity to reset with a chance to stamp their claim as true, hard-nosed contenders in Super Rugby.

If Cane is replaced as All Blacks captain, presumably you'd also have him at the ABs captain announcement this year?

Different situation, because unlike Papalii, Cane would be being dumped... unless of course Papalii really has been dumped and this is merely a PR spin.

You would think that one of the young NH locks (Cook, Christie) would be in line for a NDC spot.
I think these screen shots may be them both training with the team this week -

Sounds like Halangahu might be going to the Wallabies. Will the Blues need to replace him?
(from The Roar)
Daniel Halangahu, the highly respected assistant coach at the Blues who played alongside RA boss Waugh at the Waratahs, could also be someone on RA’s radar.

Given their play, I always thought the Blues would be better off without him. If he's going to the Wallabies, this could be a win-win...

Clarke down from 110 to 102 kg.
Caleb Clarke drops eight kilos ahead of 2024 season
After a breakout season in 2020, Caleb Clarke has struggled to hit the peak of his powers that many expected of the now 24-year-old.

Can't believe he's only 24 still.

@Tim anyone know if there will be heritage jerseys for other teams? The Blues one is slick.
-
@Canes4life from what I've heard there will be, they just weren't ready when the rest were.

All Blacks on deck. Bryce Heem is the only full squad member not there, replaced by Leo Gordon.
