Nope We finally have good coaches, Coventry has the forwards humming, and much fitter which is making a hude difference on defence. And Leon is making far better selections than the past two coaches.

Oh great, Paul Williams.
Put your life savings on the blues.
You're not... you're not having a go at the ref are you?

You....you picked up on that? I see you got your serious mask on quicksmart once required.
Williams was the ref in round 1 wasn't he? Thought he was good but had to laugh when I messaged the old man and all he did was come back complaining about the ref and the highlanders terrible win percentage under him.

if you'd asked me a few weeks back i would have been happy with playing the blues at this point in the comp...now....i dont know, come out of the bye against a red hot Blues.... i can only hope three weeks in they will be a bit more tired
edit: just read we're still not expecting Josh Ioane back

Hope we go with our strongest available side for every fixture personally. No need to make changes at this stage.

should be fun up front, but surely the class difference in the big numbers gets the Blues home
