Load management in Game 2? Goodness. But I guess get it over with early to keep them on the paddock for the back end of season.
As well as the other stuff said above - those are 2 guys who will definitely be playing any big games and whose replacements probably aren't considered even a level below.

Load management? looool fuck this comp hates itself
I thought Segner was just about the Blues' best player last week. Tough to get the rissole altogether
Agree load management, you have to give all your players a bit of a load so they ready when you need em.
Couldn't agree more about Segner, I rate him as just about best loosie Blues have got, though he played a lot preseason, so maybe a reason to use Akira.Rieko has a hamstring issue and Segner took a knock last week.

From the Herald -
Lining up against Tele’a and Ratumaitavuki-Kneepkens adds another layer to Ioane’s comeback.“He knows I’m coming for him. I already texted him this morning,” Ioane said of Ratumaitavuki-Kneepkens. “He played awesome last week so did Tanielu. They’re our brothers off the field but on that field there will be a lot of laughs and trying to get under each other’s skin. That’s the way the game goes and maybe after have a cold beer.”

Ffs 8 o'clock start, another reason not to have it there
30 minutes - oh the horror

Lol there’s about 5 people there. Get rid of the Super Rugby round. What a joke.

Lol is Sotutu chewing gum?
1 game is a massive workload to start the season.
