Anyone know if there is chatter around the Blues or Auckland giving Sullivan opportunities at 10 yet? I haven't read anything. He seems to have future test player written all over him but I am not sure his style suits what the ABs have been looking for.

Doesn’t sound like Zarn will be seen as a 10 from that article.
That sounds more like speculation on Hinton's part than any direct quotes from Leon.

@daffy-jaffy pleased to see Akira is a few weeks away. Those could be a long term injury

@daffy-jaffy said in Blues vs Moana Pasifika 2022:
Akira Ioane (Foot, lis franc) - 3 weeks
Roger Tuivasa-Sheck (Shoulder & Hamstring) - 3 weeksSo these guys will miss the away games against the Chiefs and Crusaders but be back for the games against the Aussies
At least with all the injuries and interruptions the squad should be fresh for the end of the SR season

Watching that video again and the bemused look on Nepo's face makes me wonder if he has a brain injury of his own.
If you dive into a ruck shoulder first to clear someone attacking the ball you may as well put money on getting carded to pay for your holiday. -
@daffy-jaffy that Lisfranc fracture can be nasty and perhaps 3 weeks Is optimistic but Ioane has been out at least 3 to 4 weeks already.

@gt12 Yes, an injury could mean they need a new tight head in their 23.
Sorry!
I guess big Karl can cover at a genuine pinch (I think I've seen him there once or twice), but beyond that we'll be waiting for @Nogusta I guess?
Lay is a LH I think so I assume it will be from the WTS.
Edit: Karl played TH off the bench versus MP so they could cover with him and Fusitua / Lay at LH.
