So curious to see how Tuivasa-Sheck goes.
The next rugby star or the next Benji Marshall? -
@frank 100% he will be a success at Super, whether he can make that next step up will be the bigger ask of him, but I reckon he looks to have the skills and mental ability to do it.

Looks like the Blues youtube channel is showing the game tomorrow. It’s showing as scheduled live event

I wonder if that affected his play last year.

Solid pick in Papali'i as skipper. I remember him at St Kents, very good player and leader. I think this says that Robinson isn't guaranteed a place in the run own team so can't take on captain duties.
Concerning that Beaudy's concussion issues are still with him months after their last game?
-
@nostrildamus Tom rolled his ankle, will know a little more over the next couple of days but defenitely be unavailable for the next preseason game
-
Looked like Robinson was training today, so hopefully ok!

sorry to hear. Edit Dalton sounds a good captain pick to me but will that be an issue with so many good loosies? Or is he now a dedicated (and way out in front of everyone else) 7?

I'd say he's clearly the best 7, so everyone else is fighting over 6/ 8/ lock or some combination therein.

Andrew Hore did a 30 minute question and answer with members tonight. Came across as very articulate and smart, I was impressed.
Said the Queenstown bubble was discussed, and was in the media three hours later... Some people took socializing the idea a bit too literally! They hadn't even talked to the players or coach's, let alone members😀
Good initiative, the organization has come such a long way

I just noticed on the Blues You Tube channel that the live stream of the Canes game has been viewed 92,678 times since Sunday. So much for there being no interest in preseason games. Take note broadcasters.
Edit - or maybe its just a Crusaders Bot analyzing our game plan and plotting our demise. -
It was also streamed on the Canes channel so add another 19,500
-
@daffy-jaffy I’d imagine RTS has helped boost that viewing number significantly on the Blues channel.
-
@nzzp Oh damn missed that haha. Need to read my emails more often.

Good win in the wet for our Under 20s yesterday! 😤✊
22 - 14 against the BarBars

Niiice. I’d be a purchaser:

“I will gradually resume contact training, I hope to play again in three weeks against the Chiefs. I thought it might be the end of my career. When you feel sluggish 99 per cent of the day, trying several ways to get better, but nothing works, you assume the worst.
-
Tom looks to be involved in training.

in hospital in footy shorts and birkinstocks? foot up on the bed? God the Ioane boys have a fucking terrible attitude. Just lazy and arrogant and niggly. The worst.

also that really is shit news.

Akira could be out of action for a while.
He's indicated he has a lisfranc foot injury.
had to google. Looks painful.
Damn unlucky, he's huge for us

Plumtree should get plenty of game time now
When Dalton is back Papali'i/Sotutu/Robinson with Plumtree as cover still looks strong
