Yeah Leiua is definitely more a crash/bash midfielder than a winger now.

Ex-Blues player reportedly set to be sacked by French Pro D2 club

Former Super Rugby player Jonathan Ruru has reportedly played his last match for Provence in the French Pro D2.

“The facts occurred during a party between players after the winter break. Everyone was gathered to celebrate the new year, just to strengthen ties before the return phase of the championship. The companions and wives were there, but the evening escalated when Jonathan Ruru sank into alcohol.

“An argument then broke out after the 30-year-old scrum-half struck… the wife of one of his teammates! Immediately after this incomprehensible and intolerable gesture, an Aix player inflicted a real correction. Verdict: broken jaw and shoulder. Hospitalised and then operated, Ruru was sent a few weeks later to the European Centre for Sports Rehabilitation in Capbreton for treatment.

@Tim said in Exodus:

Oh wow, that's quite the "correction"

[Stargazer]

Ruru has responded to the accusations that were published in La Provence and uses the word defamatory.

@SBW1 So not an exodus, or a reverse exodus (homecoming).

[SBW1]

@Stargazer Hopefully a homecoming.

@Machpants Another Kiwi in orange! Eligible via his Dutch grandparents. Just like Leroy van Dam, he made his debut for the Netherlands in 2022.

Roger Tuivasa-Sheck to make bombshell Warriors return

Roger Tuivasa-Sheck is returning to the New Zealand Warriors.

[Bovidae]

The Blues should just stick with Plummer at 2nd 5.

[KiwiMurph]

Good decision by RTS.

He gave it a good crack.

@Tim Not sure why they're calling it a "bombshell" return. You could see that coming from miles away.

If I was the Blues now would be a prime time to offer someone like P Umaga-Jensen a contract.

That doesn't compute. They've already got at least 3 better midfielders, plus potential in Lam.
