@Tim said in 2019 Rugby Championship:
Squire is an interesting one.
If the lack of time on the field due to injury wasn't enough, the lack of time due to yellow card...

@Tim said in 2019 Rugby Championship:
From NZ Rugby's official release: "Unavailable for selection: Liam Squire has also made himself unavailable as he felt he wasn’t ready to return to international rugby at this stage."
Asked and answered in one elegant minute, Tim!

looks shit

So 39 by my count, 28 sans Crusaders...?
Aumua bloody lucky I reckon.

Chiefs 6. Young fella, looks a real talent

Hansen re Akira:
It’s the same problem he’s always had, came into the season not fit enough. He played every game for the blues and at the same time was trying to get fit so he’s a tired athlete. We didn’t see the best of him during super rugby.
We know what’s under the surface, we just need him to take ownership. You can lead a horse to water but can’t make it drink.

@taniwharugby questionable, he offers a lot more than Harris.

@SammyC Is that a direct quote?
Nice to get some actual answers!
Yeah I’m watching the announcement and paused it to type that. Thought a few on here would be interested

Good that Hansen made it clear. Akira ought to have a word with Steve Luatua.

Fark that's disappointing. Such a talent going to waste.

@pakman Akira needs to leave the Blues if he wants to be an All Black. Come and get some work ethic off Ardie Savea. 😁
-
@Canes4life In all seriousness I reckon that is on the cards.
I think I remember he only committed to the Blues for 1 season (his actual NZRU deal was longer).
I wouldn't be surprised if he went to Canes and the NZ Rugby fan in me would welcome it.

As a Blues supporter I suspect any of the other NZ Super teams would do.

Yeah reports about Ardie are that his work ethic is next level, polar opposite to his brother. Whether it's the Canes or somewhere else Akira needs to shake things up, for whatever reason he's not focused enough in Auckland.
