Blues vs Crusaders
-
Whether he has a good or poor game Parsons goes full noise. He isn't the most talented guy, but he seems to work hard. A poor man's Monty bethem I reckon. But no one appears to have come close to tipping him. If Coles had had a faster rehab we may have seen a young hooker from the canes heading north... like really north.

@taniwharugby would not make another NZ franchise team,should never have been an All Black,was fortunate to have been in Britain when he was called into the ABs..mind you he’s got the losing speech downpad

@paekakboyz geez they've already plundered the Canes rich stocks for Apisai. When will it end?

@bones James O'Reilly will probably be next on Tana's radar.
Tana is Petone. I can't see him opting for a HOBM player.

Moulds and Pleasants-Tate have had similar fates, sitting behind captains is hard on the arse. Opportunities have been far to few, I rate them both over Ricky Telly, but there's a guy whose got the opportunity because the captains out and the upcoming is injured.

@northlandallday Pleasants-Tate was awful last year for Auckland in M10 Cup. Did not look Super standard at all. Eklund outplayed him completely - whereas a couple of years earlier it was the opposite between the two players.

On the way to the game. Wet and cold. Not expecting a big crowd, but we live in hope... Maybe no pressure suits the unstructured game we play.
Also, a set piece battle against the crusaders on a wet night... Yeah we're going to get smoked
I decided to dip into the corporate trough for this so will be at the game watching from the comfort a box, thankfully given the weather. A shame it's wet though, was hoping the Blues might throw caution to the wind given the expectation is they'll get crushed.
