    @chimoaus said in Blues v Drua:

    Is Sullivan in the conversation at 15 for ABs, who has the inside running with Jordan injured? Perofeta? Stevenson?

    Has to be.

    Perofeta is a big thanks but no thanks from me.

    Good crowd turned up in the stinking heat - anyone catch the official number? Me and a mate reckoned there must have been 10,000 there.

    Heeeaps of Fijian supporters which was good to see.

    Scrums do my head in, the length of time it takes to set one is ridiculous, then when they have to re set another couple of times….. yawwwwn!!!

    @Gunner yea i saw you sitting along from us.

    Was annoying they kept playing the music instead of letting the Fijians chant.

    Always good tonsee a decent crowd at Okara though!

    Pretty good game all up, thought the blues def struggled early in the 2nd spell and then when Segner went off it changed the blues breakdown work, best game I seen from Darry.

    For the Drua, thier hooker was thier best around the park.

    Not sure what was up with the turf, ripping up like it did, we don’t normally see that up here.

    Was out there with the kids for their ‘curtain raiser’, it was very hard and mown very very short. It almost looked and felt like an artificial pitch.

    My pick is the soil is just way too sandy.

    Encouraging performances by Sam Darry and Hoskins Sotutu, but the player who impressed me most was Mark Telea. He's all class.

    Haven't seen any mention of injuries so I guess they were just being careful with Dalton
